Explosion Lawyer in Brooklyn

Knowing the cause and type of the explosion can help support your personal injury case. Some of the types of explosions we can handle for our clients include the following.

Car Explosions

Most car accidents don’t result in an explosion. However, if the vehicle’s gas tank or fuel lines are significantly damaged, an explosion is possible. Injuries from a car explosion are typically severe. Metal and glass shards can connect with an individual, causing serious lacerations or even resulting in the loss of a limb.

Unsafe Work Areas

Industrial and chemical plants don’t always have adequate safeguards in place, and this can make it easier for an explosion to occur. Employees may not be properly trained in how to handle flammable materials and chemicals. Spills may not be properly cleaned up. Sometimes, all it takes is a single spark to cause an explosion.

If an employer doesn’t take adequate precautions required by law to protect employees from explosion accidents, the company may be held liable if an employee is injured.

Fires

If a fire breaks out in a building, the presence of explosive or flammable materials can cause an explosion. Injuries can range from third-degree burns to smoke inhalation. Other types of serious injuries can also occur, like head and brain trauma, spinal injuries, and even fatalities.

These are only a few examples of how explosions can occur. If you’re injured in an explosion, contact Morgan & Morgan to learn more about your case.
