Construction Injury cases in San Antonio
Construction crews build San Antonio through Interstate 35 corridor freight and military-base traffic — new homes, towers, plants, and warehouses across Bexar County. Falls from height, trench collapses, electrocutions, heat collapse, and heavy-equipment incidents make Texas construction the most dangerous in the country — and many crews work for non-subscriber employers or as misclassified contractors.
Depending on your employer, a San Antonio construction injury can mean a comp claim, a direct non-subscriber lawsuit, or a third-party claim against another contractor or equipment maker — sometimes several at once. A participating Texas law firm may review every path.
Common San Antonio construction injury situations
- Falls from scaffolds, ladders, and roofs
- Trench collapses and structural failures
- Electrocutions and burns on site
- Heavy-equipment and crane incidents

Why quick action matters in Texas
If your employer carries workers' comp, report the injury within 30 days and file a claim with the Division of Workers' Compensation within one year. If your employer is a non-subscriber (no workers' comp), you may be able to sue the employer directly — and the two-year lawsuit clock runs instead. Acting quickly protects your claim either way. This is general information, not legal advice; a participating law firm can explain the deadlines that apply to you.

Common questions
Is this a law firm?
No. TX Legal Help is a legal advertising and lead-generation website. It is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. Your inquiry may be shared with a participating Texas law firm for review.
What does a case review cost?
Requesting a case review through this website is free. A participating law firm will explain any fees during your consultation.
How long do I have to report a work injury in Texas?
If your employer carries workers' comp, report the injury within 30 days and file a claim with the Division of Workers' Compensation within one year. If your employer is a non-subscriber (no workers' comp), different rules — and often stronger rights — apply. This is general information, not legal advice. A participating law firm can explain the deadlines that apply to you.
I was paid 1099 as a 'contractor' — am I out of luck?
Not necessarily. Misclassification is common in Texas construction, and your real status depends on how the work actually ran — not the label. A participating law firm can review your arrangement and explain what claims may apply.
How much is a construction injury claim worth in San Antonio?
It depends on your injury, medical treatment, earnings, and any impairment rating — and in non-subscriber cases, on the employer's negligence. A participating Texas law firm can review your San Antonio claim and explain what benefits or recovery may apply. No outcome is guaranteed.
Will my San Antonio work injury claim end in a settlement?
Many Texas work injury cases resolve by agreement — especially non-subscriber and third-party claims — while comp benefits often pay over time. The right path depends on your injury and future medical needs. A participating law firm can explain the trade-offs before you sign anything.
Can I sue my employer for a work injury in San Antonio?
Sometimes yes — if your employer is a non-subscriber (no workers' comp), you can generally sue it directly for negligence, and Texas law strips it of key defenses. If your employer subscribes, comp is generally the exclusive remedy against it, though third-party claims remain. A participating Texas law firm can review which applies to your San Antonio injury.
How do I find a construction injury lawyer near me in San Antonio?
TX Legal Help is not a law firm, but you can request a free case review online and a participating Texas law firm serving San Antonio may review your situation — often the fastest way to find out where you stand.
Where are San Antonio workers' comp claims handled?
Texas workers' compensation claims for Bexar County run through the Division of Workers' Compensation rather than county court — while non-subscriber cases are lawsuits filed in court. A participating Texas law firm can explain the process for a San Antonio-area claim. This is general information, not legal advice.
