California Explosion Injury Lawyer

An explosion is a rapid increase in volume and release of energy in an extreme manner, usually with the generation of high temperatures and the release of gases.

Although a small number of fires resulting in explosions occur in residences, cars, and other non-industrial locations, the majority are workplace-related. Leaking natural gas lines, gasoline, and propane tanks, and flammable substances such as paint thinners, heating fuel, petroleum, and welding gases, all explode when sparked by fire.

For many victims and their families, financial compensation is important, but so is preventing future accidents. A loved one’s wrongful death or catastrophic injuries can often lead to a change in the policies, procedures or harmful products that caused the accident.

Explosion Injuries

Fires and gas explosions often result in death and, those that survive, almost always suffer from devastating physical and psychological effects. Burn injuries are horrific, difficult to treat and affect almost every organ in the body. Survivors are left with not only scarring and disfigurement but also long-term emotional consequences. The medical expenses can easily be very overwhelming.

Burn injuries are categorized by the severity in degrees:

• First-degree burns include minor pain and redness of the skin.
• Second-degree burns include blisters and superficial destruction of the dermis.
• Third-degree burns extend into the deeper tissue, destroying both the epidermis and the dermis.
• Fourth-degree burns destroy the skin and sometimes damage muscle, fascia or bone.

Types of Explosion Cases We Handle

When gas explosions occur in the context of industrial product liability cases, the causes can range from:

• Plant explosions
• Gas generator explosions
• Underground gas line explosions
• Industrial vehicle gas explosions
• Explosions caused by gas leaks
• Flash fires caused by water heaters and adhesives

Unfortunately, explosion and fire accidents are usually caused by multiple acts and omissions of different parties. The causes of explosions and fires can often be traced back to human error or corporate negligence. The reality is that those individuals or companies that cause explosions and fires usually have significant resources to enable them to aggressively defend themselves. Determining the cause of an explosion or fire, and who should be held accountable for the injuries and damages caused, is usually a matter that requires swift action on the part of the victims’ attorneys to investigate the cause of the explosion or fire. This necessarily requires an attorney to retain the highly specialized experts needed to determine the cause of the explosion or fire and how it could have been prevented. The California explosion injury attorneys at the Liljegren Law Group have worked on numerous occasions with some of the leading experts in the fields of explosion and fire prevention and cause and origin to properly litigate these complicated cases.
