Industrial worksites—factories, warehouses, refineries, and plants—are high-risk environments where one mistake can lead to devastating consequences. Unlike typical workplace injuries, industrial accidents often involve powerful equipment, toxic chemicals, and multilayered liability. If you or a loved one was hurt while working in an industrial setting in Wheaton, the experienced Wheaton Industrial Accident Attorney at Malloy Law Offices is here to help you pursue full and fair compensation for your injuries, losses, and future care.
Industrial labor is physically demanding and often dangerous by nature. But when companies cut corners on safety or equipment fails, workers are the ones who pay the price. Common causes of industrial accidents in Wheaton include:
Mechanical malfunctions from defective or poorly maintained equipment
Chemical exposure to hazardous substances like solvents, asbestos, or cleaning agents
Fires and explosions in manufacturing or storage facilities
Forklift, crane, or conveyor belt accidents
Falls from loading docks, catwalks, or scaffolding
Overexertion injuries from repetitive tasks or inadequate breaks
Electrical hazards and improper lockout/tagout procedures
Inadequate training or lack of protective gear
Whether you were working in food processing, packaging, logistics, or manufacturing, your safety is non-negotiable—and when it’s compromised, we’re ready to take action.
Industrial accidents often result in permanent injuries that require long-term medical care and life adjustments. We regularly represent clients suffering from:
Spinal cord injuries leading to partial or full paralysis
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) from equipment malfunctions or falling objects
Amputations due to crush injuries or machinery contact
Severe burns from chemical spills or fires
Respiratory damage from inhaling fumes, dust, or asbestos
Multiple fractures and orthopedic trauma
Vision and hearing loss from chemical or noise exposure
These injuries don’t just affect your health—they impact your ability to work, support your family, and enjoy life. We fight for a recovery that accounts for the full picture.
While workers’ compensation in Maryland can provide some immediate relief, it rarely covers all losses. Many industrial accidents are caused by third parties whose negligence opens the door to additional legal claims, including:
Machinery or equipment manufacturers if a design or production flaw caused the accident
Property owners who failed to maintain safe facilities
Contractors or subcontractors working on-site
Chemical suppliers responsible for inadequate safety labeling or delivery procedures
Maintenance providers who failed to properly inspect or service equipment
Our Wheaton industrial accident attorneys know how to uncover these liability layers and hold all responsible parties accountable.
With a strong third-party liability case, you may be entitled to damages well beyond the limits of workers’ comp, including:
Past and future medical expenses
Lost wages and loss of future earning capacity
Pain and suffering
Permanent disability or disfigurement
Home or vehicle modifications
In-home medical or personal care
Wrongful death benefits for surviving family members
We consult with vocational experts, economists, and life care planners to make sure your claim reflects your actual needs—now and for the road ahead.
