When Can You Sue a Third Party After a Construction Site Accident in Texas?

Construction sites are complex environments. Multiple contractors, subcontractors, property owners, and equipment suppliers often work side by side. When a construction site accident happens, workers may assume their only option is workers’ compensation or a nonsubscriber claim against their employer. But in many cases, injured workers can also pursue third‑party liability claims—lawsuits against someone other than their direct employer.  This is why it is important to discuss your options with a construction site injury lawyer.

At MLF Legal, we help injured construction workers across Texas identify every possible source of recovery, including construction site third‑party claims.

Third-Party Workers’ Compensation Claims in Texas

MLF Legal’s work on third-party claims involves representing clients who have been injured by someone other than their employer. These claims are separate from workers’ compensation and allow injured individuals to seek additional compensation for damages like pain and suffering, which are often not covered by workers’ comp. Workers’ compensation provides medical care and partial wage replacement when you’re injured on the job. But it doesn’t always cover everything you lose. That’s where third-party claims come in.

What Happens if Your Construction Employer Doesn’t Carry Workers’ Comp in Texas

In Texas, many construction employers opt out of workers’ compensation insurance, becoming “nonsubscribers.” This unique status can significantly impact injured workers, offering them the opportunity to file negligence lawsuits for full compensation, including lost wages, medical expenses, and pain and suffering. Unlike traditional workers’ comp, nonsubscriber claims strip employers of certain defenses, making it easier for injured workers to seek justice. If you’ve been injured on a construction site, understanding your rights is crucial. Discover how you can navigate this complex landscape and maximize your recovery with the right legal support.
