Pittsburgh Gas Drilling Accident Attorney

Pennsylvania Mine Explosion Attorney | Mining Injury Lawyer

The Marcellus Shale Field has made Western Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio one of the most productive regions of the Unites States for natural gas drilling and production. As new technologies such as Hydraulic fracking are developed, allowing energy companies to get more aggressive in their exploration and drilling techniques, workers in the drilling fields face greater and greater risks.

If you suffered an injury in a gas drilling or exploration accident in Pennsylvania or Ohio, talk to an attorney at the law offices of Dallas W. Hartman, P.C., with offices in New Castle, Hermitage, Butler and Erie, Pennsylvania. For more than 25 years, workers throughout the region have been turning to us for help securing workers' compensation benefits and additional compensation through third-party lawsuits against the parties responsible for their injuries.

Third-Party Liability for Gas Drilling and Refinery Accidents

Most workers in the natural gas and oil drilling industry in Pennsylvania and Ohio are eligible for their state's workers' compensation benefits if they are injured in a work-related accident. If the court determines that a negligent equipment manufacturer or contractor is responsible for causing your injuries, you are entitled to seek additional money damages through a 'third-party' lawsuit.
