Mining Injuries
Serving Since 1973
Coal mining has long been the lifeblood of many communities, especially throughout Alabama and the greater Appalachian and Southeastern mining regions. It remains one of the most dangerous professions in America. The King Firm has represented miners and their families for decades, standing up to powerful corporations and insurers to secure justice for those injured underground or on the surface. Our attorneys have a deep understanding of mining law, safety standards, and the unique hazards miners face every day.
A Legacy Rooted in the Mining Community
Jimmy King, owner and senior partner of The King Firm, comes from a coal mining family. His father was a miner, his brothers and sister were miners, his uncles were miners, and many of his closest friends were miners. Jimmy is intimately familiar with the struggles miners face and the sacrifices they make.
For decades, he has personally represented hundreds of miners and their families against major mining corporations throughout Alabama and the Southeast.
This background gives The King Firm a unique perspective: we don’t just understand mining cases — we understand miners.

Understanding the Risks of Coal Mining
Despite technological advances, mining continues to present serious dangers. Accidents can result from:
-
Equipment failure
-
Roof or wall collapses
-
Fire and explosions
-
Electrical hazards
-
Vehicle collisions underground
-
Exposure to harmful dust, gases, or chemicals
Many of these incidents are preventable. From inadequate training to ignored safety warnings, too many injuries occur because employers cut corners or fail to prioritize worker safety. These injuries can lead to lifelong disability, chronic respiratory disease, catastrophic harm, or death.
The King Firm works tirelessly to hold responsible parties accountable and ensure injured miners receive the full compensation they deserve.
