know your rights
Work should be a safe place — but too often, employers cut corners, ignore safety rules, or fail to protect their workers. When that happens, accidents occur and lives are changed forever. At Baeza Law Firm, we fight for workers across Texas and New Mexico who were injured on the job. Our mission is clear: protect good people from bad companies that put profits ahead of safety.
A workplace accident claim arises when an employee is injured while performing their job duties. While workers’ compensation may cover some expenses, many cases involve additional claims against negligent third parties, unsafe contractors, or employers who retaliate against injured workers. You have rights, and we’re here to protect them.
Common Causes of Workplace Accidents
Workplace accidents can happen in any industry. Some of the most common causes include:
- Unsafe equipment or lack of maintenance
- Falls from ladders, scaffolding, or rooftops
- Exposure to toxic chemicals or hazardous materials
- Lack of protective gear or training
- Machinery accidents and crush injuries
- Fires, explosions, and electrical hazards
