Tacoma Welding Accident Attorney
Your Local Legal Resource When Welding Accidents Disrupt Your Life
Severe workplace incidents can change your world in an instant. When welders face burns, explosions, or equipment failures on Tacoma job sites, they need real answers and supportive legal help. At Becker Franklin Rovang, our team brings decades of injury law experience and a practical, disciplined approach informed by years in Washington’s courts and communities. We guide clients through uncertainty, helping them understand their rights and options after a welding accident.
Many local companies operate under Washington State’s strict safety standards, yet accidents still happen. Welders regularly work with hazardous tools and materials in Tacoma’s busy port and urban construction environments. Each worksite follows specific safety protocols, but serious injuries often result from equipment defects, inadequate training, or overlooked regulations. By choosing a welding accident lawyer in Tacoma who understands these local worksite environments and state laws, you position yourself for a fair and informed recovery process.

Helping Welders & Families Move Forward After Injury
Welding work carries risks—burns, eye injuries, respiratory issues, and crush injuries often occur on Tacoma-area job sites. Washington employers and contractors must follow safety rules set by the Department of Labor & Industries and OSHA. When something goes wrong, different parties may contribute to the injury. As experienced welding accident attorneys, we evaluate each scenario and help clients consider all forms of compensation—whether through workers' compensation claims, liability matters, or actions involving third parties whose actions played a role.
Washington law gives injured workers the ability to file claims, but the path can feel challenging when you are juggling paperwork, deadlines, and ongoing care. Many welders find the complexity of insurance forms, company policies, and reporting procedures overwhelming. With knowledge of Tacoma’s job environments and local medical professionals, we help clients access necessary medical care, gather evidence, and meet deadlines. Our experience with long-term effects such as chronic pain or limited mobility means we also address how injuries could impact your work and personal life well into the future.
- Clear, consistent communication: We keep you informed at each step so you always know where your case stands.
- Personalized legal strategies: Each injury, workplace, and client is different—we tailor our approach based on your situation.
- Free consultation & accessible meetings: Our team travels to your location in Tacoma or offers in-person meetings, so quality help is always within reach.

I am very Lucky to have found Ian De Verna for my attorney. I was injured in a car accident and while Ian was working on my case I was hit by someone again. This time the person had no insurance I was injured again and my brand new car was totaled. Being injured again I was pretty scared but thankfully Ian took on this case for uninsured motorist against my insurance company as well. It was a challenge I am sure but Ian and his staff were very professional and caring the whole time. With all Ian's hard work he was able to get policy limits for both cases. Ian is not only good at his profession but truly cares about his clients and works very hard with his great group of people at Becker Franklin Rovang Injury office
