  • Gas explosion injuries

  • Chemical plant explosions
  • Electrical fires
  • Propane tank explosions

We handle residential fires and large-scale industrial explosions.

Common Causes of Fire and Explosion Injuries

Most fire and explosion injuries trace back to preventable negligence. Here are the most common causes our attorneys see:

  • Landlord negligence: Failure to maintain smoke detectors or sprinklers
  • Defective products: Faulty design or manufacturing that creates a fire or explosion hazard
  • Gas line errors: Improper installation or repair that allows gas to leak and ignite
  • Building code violations: Failure to meet state or local fire safety requirements
  • Industrial safety failures: Employers who disregard safety protocols and allow dangerous conditions to develop

When negligence causes harm, we hold the responsible party accountable. Fire and explosion injuries are among the most severe a person can suffer. We help victims pursue compensation for:

  • Burn injuries (first, second and third degree)
  • Lung damage from smoke or chemical inhalation
  • Traumatic brain injuries from blast pressure
  • Scarring and disfigurement
  • Amputations
  • Wrongful death
