Injured on the Job in McAllen? We Help Workers Across the RGV Get the Compensation They Deserve

A serious work injury can upend your life. At HKC Law Firm, PLLC, we help people across McAllen and the Rio Grande Valley who’ve been hurt at work — especially in construction, warehousing, oilfield, and service jobs. If you’re dealing with lost wages, medical bills, or an uncooperative employer, we’re here to fight for your rights and help you move forward.

Not Every Work Injury Is Covered by Workers’ Comp — But You May Still Have a Case

Texas doesn’t require every employer to carry workers’ compensation. If your employer doesn’t subscribe, or if your injury was caused by someone else (like a contractor or equipment manufacturer), you may be entitled to file a third-party injury claim.



At HKC Law, we investigate all potential sources of compensation — not just what your employer tells you.

  • Construction site accidents
  • Falls from ladders, scaffolds, or rooftops
  • Forklift or heavy equipment incidents
  • Repetitive motion injuries

  • Vehicle accidents while on the jo

We also assist with serious workplace injuries that lead to long-term disability or wrongful death.

Emilio M.

Attorney Hitesh Chugani (and company), made my case feel like a soft breeze. They completely handled the workload in a very professional manner and granted me a very favorable outcome. Hitesh Chugani has now become my attorney of choice, and I will be recommending him to friends and family from here on out.

Outstanding! Not only he's efficient but also made sure to hire the right people for his team. They finished my case in a prompt manner. I would strongly recommend Attorney Chugani to anyone involved in a car accident. Thank you HKC Law Firm!

Maria C.

Mr Chugani is a very professional, trustworthy, caring and humble person. He is excellent at his job. Miss Mendoza, who was assigned to take my case, is a very nice, kind, professional and knowledgeable person. Not only did she find me a good physical therapist but she always followed up and help me through this process. I received the best medical treatment after my accident.


Miss Mendoza, Thank you for all your help. I highly recommend Mr. Chugani Law Firm.

Marlen M.

From the moment I walked in and met Attorney Chugani and his staff I knew I was at the right place. He is very knowledgeable of the laws both civil and criminal and he is very humble and kind. I felt confident he was representing me and I was kept up to speed with any updates as they came along. I always felt my case was priority!!! Paralegal Susan is amazing (attentive and professional!). Definitely recommending!!


Manny Leal

This is an OUTSTANDING individual. He'll move mountains for you. Very professional, humble, kind and determined. He's gone out of his way, even on his own vacation, just to help me with big favors, that other lawyers probably wouldn't do.


There will never be any hesitation or doubt when it comes to a game plan with Mr.Hitesh, he is an overachiever. Overall the best lawyer in the RGV.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Injured at Work? You Probably Have Questions.

  • Can I sue my employer?

    It depends. If your employer doesn’t carry workers’ comp (a “non-subscriber”), you may have the right to sue for negligence. We’ll help you understand your options.

  • What if I was injured by another company on the job site?

    You may have a third-party claim. We investigate all contractors, subcontractors, and vendors who may be responsible.

  • How soon should I call a lawyer?

    As soon as possible. The longer you wait, the more likely key evidence or documents will disappear.
