New Mexico Oil Field Injuries: The True Cost of Working the Permian Basin You are reading this at a time when everything has already gone wrong. Maybe you are the one who got hurt — the spinal injury that means you cannot lift your own child, the leukemia diagnosis that came out of nowhere at thirty-six, the loss of smell that means you will never again know the dinner your wife cooked. Maybe you are the spouse who keeps finding your husband’s work boots by the door even though he is not coming home the same. Maybe you are sitting in a hospital room in El Paso, two hours from home, wondering how a two-week coma turned into a lifetime of metal pegs in a spine. Or maybe you are the worker who is afraid — afraid that if you speak up, you lose your job, or worse, that someone calls immigration on the only livelihood that feeds your family. We are Attorney911.
