Trusted Legal Support for Machinery Accidents in Austin Manufacturing Facilities

The Role of Our Austin Machinery Accident Attorneys

When machinery fails or is misused in a manufacturing setting, the results can be devastating. At Kelley Wolff Injury Attorneys, we understand how traumatic these injuries can be—both physically and financially. Our team is here to help guide you through every step of the legal process. We are trusted personal injury lawyers in Austin, TX, who fight to protect your rights and maximize your compensation.

We bring extensive experience in workplace injury claims involving machinery and equipment failures. We understand OSHA safety standards, manufacturer liabilities, and the complex regulations that apply to factories and warehouses in Travis County and Central Texas. Whether you were injured by a conveyor belt in East Austin or suffered a crush injury while maintaining robotic equipment, we tailor our approach to your unique case.

Why Choose Kelley Wolff Injury Attorneys for Your Machinery Accident Case?

Kelley Wolff Injury Attorneys are fierce advocates for injured manufacturing workers. We represent clients hurt in a wide range of machinery-related incidents, including:

  • Machinery Accidents – From conveyor belts to robotic arms, improperly guarded or malfunctioning machines are a leading cause of amputations, crush injuries, and severe lacerations in factories and industrial facilities.
  • Explosions or Fires – Faulty wiring or overheating machinery in manufacturing environments can ignite flammable materials, causing devastating burns, smoke inhalation, or long-term respiratory complications.
  • Slip and Fall Accidents – Grease leaks, spilled lubricants, and machine coolant puddles can turn factory floors into high-risk zones for falls, often leading to fractures, spinal injuries, or head trauma.
  • Toxic Exposure – Equipment failure or poor ventilation near automated systems and manufacturing lines can release harmful fumes, chemicals, or dust—resulting in acute injuries or chronic illness.
  • Falling Objects – Malfunctioning hoists, improperly loaded shelving, or equipment-related vibration can knock tools or materials loose, injuring workers with blunt force trauma to the head, back, or neck.
  • Lifting and Repetitive Motion Injuries – Operating or maintaining heavy machinery often involves strenuous, repeated movement. Over time, this can result in torn ligaments, joint injuries, and other musculoskeletal disorders.

Hiring Kelley Wolff Injury Attorneys means gaining a legal team that prioritizes your physical recovery and financial security. We understand how stressful machinery injuries can be—and how often injured workers face resistance from employers, insurers, or third parties. We fight to ensure your rights are respected, and your case is treated seriously.

  • Emergency treatment and long-term care (including surgeries and rehab)
  • Lost income and reduced future earning capacity
  • Vocational retraining or disability accommodations
  • Pain and suffering
  • Wrongful death claims for families who lost a loved one on the job

Legal Support You Can Rely On

Employers, equipment manufacturers, and insurers often attempt to deny or minimize injury claims. We know their tactics—and we know how to beat them. Our team thoroughly investigates every case, secures critical safety records, and partners with technical experts to prove how and why the machinery caused your injury.

We help machinery injury victims recover damages for:

  • Immediate and ongoing medical expenses
  • Lost wages and diminished lifetime earnings

My husband and I were in a car accident in December '23 and both sustained spinal injuries. We were definitely overwhelmed getting through the holidays that year, and finding Kelley Wolff helped tremendously. After they accepted our case, they took care of everything to get us set up with medical appointments. The medical process was seamless due to their assistance. We completed treatment within around 4-5 months and then moved from Texas to Colorado - I was worried that this would complicate our case, but they took care to ensure it wouldn't complicate or drag it out.Travis & Colin kept us informed throughout the process, and were very helpful when it came time to give our depositions. We both felt very prepared for the process. Our case ultimately went to mediation, and they ensured we were well-prepared for the mediation, including what to expect during and after. The mediator was able to propose a solution that worked for all parties, which we gladly accepted. Once the funds were approved and allocated, we received checks the next business day.We are so glad to be done with this process, only because it was stressful, but I highly recommend consulting Kelley Wolff if you find yourself in a car accident or other personal injury case. Travis & Colin are both exceptionally kind, brilliant, and thorough attorneys, and I feel confident recommending them to any of my loved ones.

The car accident I was in and subsequent injuries put in completely uncharted territory for me, I had no idea where to begin with getting a lawyer. It was incredibly daunting but Travis and Colin made me feel safe and guided me through every challenging step of the process. I always felt that they were honest and forthcoming with me and I have a lot of respect for both of them. Highly recommend!

My wife and I had the absolute pleasure of working with Colin, a partner at Kelley Wolff Law, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the support and guidance he provided throughout our case. From the very beginning, Colin made everything easy to understand and was incredibly communicative—always keeping us informed and never making us feel like just another file on the desk.What stood out the most to us was how deeply Colin respected and understood our bicultural background. He approached every conversation with genuine sensitivity and awareness, which helped us feel seen, heard, and comfortable during what could have been a stressful process.No matter the size of your case, Colin treats it with the same level of seriousness and professionalism. He never pressured us into decisions but instead guided us thoughtfully, helping us understand all our options and empowering us to choose the path that felt right for us.We highly recommend Colin and the entire team at Kelley Wolff Law. Their integrity, compassion, and attention to detail make all the difference.— Aylin & Orcun

Travis and Colin were awesome throughout this whole journey with me. I honestly thought I wasn't going to come out on top after finding out the driver that hit my car from behind didn't have insurance, but as of Dec 12, 2024 I was giving the great news that all was not lost. Those guys came through for me like Jordan did for the Bulls in the 4th quarter.
