Coal Mine Accidents

Boone County, WV, Logan County, WV, Mingo County, WV, Lincoln County, WV, and Kanawha County, WV, are annually some of the biggest producers of coal in the country. Unfortunately, the giant coal producers sometimes value production over safety.  This reckless and negligent behavior by coal companies creates hazardous mining conditions and often results in severe injuries or death.

If you are severely injured in a mining accident, or a family member is killed in a mining accident, you will need to hire a lawyer in order to recover your lost wages, future lost wages and damages for pain, suffering, annoyance, and inconvenience. 

We have represented numerous individuals who have been severely injured or killed by the negligence of coal companies. Some of our clients have been working for independent contractors when they were injured while working inside the mines. Many clients have been employees of coal companies who were injured as a result of the company ignoring safety regulations.  When an employee is tragically injured in a mining accident due to the coal company ignoring safety regulations a law suit must be filed to obtain money damages other than just workers compensation.

We have significant knowledge of how coal mines operate. Our cases have involved the following: man trip collisions, roof falls, vehicle collisions, dispatcher negligence, faulty communication systems, electrical problems, continuous miner operation, negligent training, and more. Our legal experience can help you recover against the giant coal corporations.
