EXperience in oilfield cases

Before you hire an attorney to handle your overtime case, ask him or her how many similar cases they have handled. Because I focus on oilfield overtime cases, there are few issues involving oilfield workers that I have not already seen in a prior case.

Below are descriptions of some of the cases Borsellino, P.C. has filed on behalf of oilfield workers and those in the oil and gas industry (or related industries) in the past several years:
