Industrial Accidents
If you or a loved one has been hurt in an industrial accident, please contact us so that we can best advise you as to how we can advocate on your behalf in order to obtain just compensation for the trauma you endured as a result of your injuries. If your injuries are caused by a third party, you can be compensated for your pain and suffering (which workers’ compensation doesn’t cover). You can also receive full wage replacement. Contact us for more information about the compensation you may be eligible to receive.
Heavy Equipment Accidents
If you have been involved in a workplace accident involving heavy industrial equipment, Weintraub Law has the experience, skill and resources to successfully handle your case. We have a proven track record of successfully representing individuals and families in accident cases involving heavy industrial equipment.
Railroad Worker Accidents
Railroad accident cases are complex. Injured workers are not covered under the standard workers’ compensation laws. Instead, they must seek compensation under the Federal Employers’ Liability Act (FELA) which allows injured railroad employees to pursue a claim against the railroad carrier, its agents, servants or employees for negligence and carelessness.
If you have been injured in a railroad accident, you need an attorney who understands the nuances of FELA claims and who can effectively represent your interests under this Act. The Louisiana railroad attorney at Weintraub Law can help.
Offshore Injuries
As an offshore worker in the Gulf of Mexico or another of our nation’s waterways, your own safety relies on your co-workers’ safe work practices, proper maintenance of equipment, the seaworthiness of the vessel and the responsible and safety-conscious actions of the vessel owner.

If you have been injured – or if a family member has been killed – as a result of an offshore oil rig or maritime accident, you are entitled to justice and compensation if the injury or death was caused by the careless or reckless acts of another person or company.
