The day of the explosion was the worst day of my life. It was like a nightmare that I couldn’t wake up from. The ground was shaking, I couldn’t run, and fire was everywhere. I got burned on my hands and my face. I crawled until somebody helped me up. I honestly didn’t think I was going to make it.
The company treated me like I was on my own. It was like they vanished. The only thing they were worried about was us coming back to work. With my burns and my injuries, they sent me to their doctors, who just said, “Nothing’s wrong with you, you’re okay, you can go back to work.” But my hand couldn’t even make a fist. I couldn’t lift anything. I felt hopeless, and they wouldn’t help me out.
I hired a lawyer because the company only cared about themselves, not me or my medical needs. I was left at the bottom of the barrel by myself. I needed someone to help me and defend me against their lawyers.
Zehl & Associates felt more like family. They were there for my medical needs, financial needs, and anything else I had going on. They made sure I went to the right doctors and that all my injuries were taken care of. They stood by my side the entire time.
Zehl & Associates got me a settlement that I never thought was possible—one that helped me and my family tremendously. I am really happy with the outcome.
I would recommend Zehl & Associates to anyone who was hurt in a plant explosion or any kind of major case. They came in, fought for me, and secured a settlement I didn’t think I could ever get. They took on the big guys from the start and never backed down.
