The data center boom in Texas has brought thousands of jobs, but it has also created unique risks. Data centers are filled with massive electrical systems, heavy equipment, and battery storage areas that can be dangerous if safety rules are ignored. If you or a loved one were injured working on or inside a data center, you may be entitled to significant compensation.
At Falcon Law Group, we help injured workers and their families recover money for medical bills, lost income, and long-term care needs. We proudly represent construction workers, electricians, technicians, and contractors throughout Texas. You focus on healing — we focus on holding the responsible parties accountable.
Common Accidents in Texas Data Centers
-
Electrical shocks and arc flashes – These can happen during live commissioning, equipment testing, or maintenance work. Arc flash burns are often severe, leading to surgeries, skin grafts, and long recovery periods.
-
Falls from heights – Data centers often require work above raised floors, on scaffolding, or in man lifts. A fall can lead to broken bones, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries.
-
Crush injuries – Installing large generators, chillers, or modular data hall units can go wrong if rigging fails or heavy equipment shifts unexpectedly.
-
Burns and explosions – Diesel fuel storage, welding sparks, or lithium-ion battery fires can trigger explosions that put everyone nearby at risk.
-
Repetitive stress and overexertion injuries – Pulling thousands of feet of cable or moving racks and equipment can strain backs, shoulders, and joints.
These are not minor injuries — they can take workers off the job for months or permanently. Falcon Law Group investigates each case to uncover what went wrong and who is responsible.
Why Data Center Injury Cases Require Skilled Legal Help
Data centers are not like ordinary construction sites. They involve:
-
Live electrical systems carrying massive amounts of power
-
Hazardous chemicals like refrigerants and battery electrolytes
-
Multi-million-dollar schedules that pressure crews to work fast
-
Dozens of contractors working in tight spaces at the same time
This combination leads to complex liability issues. There may be several companies responsible — from the general contractor to specialized subcontractors to equipment manufacturers. Our job is to untangle these layers, prove who is liable, and demand full compensation on your behalf. Insurance companies often try to push quick settlements that don’t cover future costs. We fight for the result you truly need, even if that means taking your case to trial.
Compensation Available After a Data Center Injury
-
Medical costs: hospital stays, surgeries, physical therapy, medications, and long-term care needs
-
Lost wages: money for the time you are unable to work
-
Future earnings: if your injury prevents you from going back to your old job or reduces your earning power
-
Pain and suffering: compensation for the physical pain and emotional distress caused by your injury
-
Disability benefits: support if you are left permanently disabled
-
Wrongful death damages: funeral costs and financial support for families when a loved one is killed on the job
Our goal is to make sure you never have to worry about paying for care out of pocket or struggling to provide for your family because of a preventable accident.

Texas Data Center Hotspots Where Accidents Are Common
-
Dallas–Fort Worth
-
Rio Grande Valley
These regions are home to some of the largest and fastest-growing data center projects in the U.S. That means more work — but also more jobsite hazards. Whether your accident happened during construction, maintenance, or commissioning, Falcon Law Group can help.
What to Do After a Data Center Accident
Seek medical care immediately, even if you think the injury is minor — documentation is key. Report the incident to your supervisor, write down what happened, and take photos if possible. Save your medical records and receipts. Most importantly, don’t sign any settlement papers or give a recorded statement to the insurance company before talking to a lawyer. They are looking out for their bottom line — not your future.

FAQ: Texas Data Center Injury Claims
Do I have to rely on workers’ comp only?
Not always. You may have a claim against third parties like subcontractors, equipment makers, or property owners — and those claims can provide far greater compensation.
What if the company blames me?
Texas uses a modified comparative fault rule. Even if you share some responsibility, you may still recover money. We fight to minimize any blame placed on you.
How long will my case take?
It depends on the complexity of the injury and how long it takes to fully understand your medical needs. Some cases settle quickly, others require litigation. We keep you informed every step of the way.
Do you represent Spanish-speaking clients?
Yes — Se Habla Español. We make sure you understand your rights clearly and guide you through the process.
