Oil Field Injury Settlements

McIntyre Law is proud of our work within the practice of oil field injury litigation. These oil field injury settlements are just a few examples of the success we’ve had helping our clients receive proper compensation for their injuries.

• Settled an oil rig explosion injury case for $5 million.
• Oil field accident where a commercial truck drove into the path of an oncoming automobile. Client sustained serious injuries to his hip and lower extremities. He was unable to work for over a year. Defendant claimed he was faced with a sudden emergency. Litigation ensued, and it was discovered that the driver of the commercial truck was not qualified, was over the daily limit for his hours of service, and had other distractions inside the cab of the truck. Plaintiff filed a motion of spoliation of evidence, wherein it was alleged the company had “lost” the alcohol and drug test screenings performed on the driver. After approximately 15 depositions and on the brink of trial, the defendant made an offer to resolve the case. The settlement exceeded $3 million.
• A minor child was struck by an oil field services commercial truck while playing next to the road. The impact caused severe injuries to the child’s leg. The insurance company for the owner of the oil field services truck said that they would never pay a dime, alleging that the child walked out in front of the commercial driver. To determine whether the case was meritorious, McIntyre Law hired a respected accident reconstruction and human factors expert. We then went about renting and purchasing clones of the vehicles that were involved in the accident. After depositions, we placed replicas of the children, commercial driver, and other witnesses at the scene to recreate the events of that day. It was demonstrated that the commercial truck driver’s testimony did not conform to the facts of the case. The expert demonstrated through a reenactment that the driver had ample opportunities to see the child next to the road. Even though the driver of the commercial vehicle was required to slow down and move off the edge of the road, he did not, thus causing the accident. The case was settled for a confidential amount that will provide for the child’s care and treatment for his injuries and that also compensated the parents for income and allowed them to make improvements to their home to help meet the child’s needs.

• Client received a $4.25 million settlement after a fatal crash caused by a tractor-trailer operator pulling a trailer that was unfit for use on a highway.

• Trucking accident involving a speeding truck driver who crashed into a car of teenagers. Settled for $2 million.
• Trucking accident caused by a negligent truck driver, with claims that the truck driver falsified his hours of service (logbooks), was fatigued, and failed to devote his full time and attention to the roadway.

Defendants denied being at fault for the collision and further claimed that the collision did not cause the client’s injuries. Defendants initially tried to resolve the claim for less than $200,000. After numerous depositions and motions before the court, the case resolved for $500,000.
• Driver of a tow truck was sideswiped by a semi tractor-trailer out of Texas on Interstate 35. Both drivers alleged that the other driver had entered his lane of traffic. McIntyre Law immediately hired an accident reconstruction expert who determined that the evidence demonstrated that the tractor-trailer driver had entered our client’s lane of traffic by 2 feet. McIntyre Law filed suit. Our client sustained back injuries that required minor surgical intervention. The case was mediated and a settlement offer of $250,000 was made. Defendants alleged that the settlement offer represented the highest number they would pay. McIntyre Law recommended our client not agree to the settlement offer. The case was litigated, with McIntyre Law demonstrating to the court that the opinions of the defendants’ accident reconstructionist were not scientifically based. The case resolved for a high six-figure amount.

• Driver of a tractor-trailer was driving during snowy and icy conditions on an Oklahoma interstate. Client’s automobile was rear-ended by the tractor-trailer driver, who possessed a commercial driver’s license yet failed to see that traffic had slowed in front of him. The driver of the semi alleged that he was not responsible because a car had lost control in front of our client and had caused the traffic to suddenly slow. He further alleged that the accident was unavoidable. During litigation, it was discovered that the driver’s daily logs did not match the tax records of the trucking company. It also showed that he had a history of speeding, and on the day of the collision he had an average speed in excess of 70 mph. Hotly litigated, the case was mediated where the highest offer was $125,000. McIntyre Law recommended that our client walk away from the settlement table and prepare for trial. The client agreed. McIntyre Law filed a motion for summary judgment on the defendants’ claims that the accident was unavoidable. After filing the motion, the case resolved for a high six-figure amount.
• Client was driving on the interstate when she was rear-ended by a semi tractor-trailer. Client underwent cervical disc fusion. Defendants initially refused to pay, disputing who was at fault. The case went to the brink of trial before being settled for a high six-figure amount.
