Wife of Man Killed in Plant Explosion Plans to Sue

The wife of a man killed in a Valero plant explosion in Texas City plans to sue the company for wrongful death. Laura Parker-Manis, whose husband, Tommy Manis, was killed when a boiler exploded, filed suit against the manufacturer and company that provided maintenance for the boiler. According to news reports, she also plans on filing a wrongful death suit against Valero.

When a person dies while on the job, his or her family members may have a claim for wrongful death. A wrongful death suit is intended to compensate family members for the emotional and financial losses suffered after the death of a loved one. When a person dies in a work-related accident, his or her employer may have been responsible for causing the death. An experienced Houston personal injury lawyer can help you determine whether a wrongful death suit is appropriate in your case.
