Thoughts on fatal industrial accidents

We don’t have much detail about what went wrong here, but from our experience handling similar cases, these incidents are almost always preventable and stem from some safety or equipment failure.

The surviving family and the injured individual deserve a thorough investigation. They deserve answers and accountability if any wrongdoing or negligence is discovered.
