Gas explosions, electrocutions, and fires can cause catastrophic personal injuries that leave victims permanently disabled or sometimes even cost them their lives. In such unfortunate cases, the victim and his or her family may require legal help in order to restore as much normalcy to life as possible. Warshauer Poe & Thornton, P.C.’s burn injury and gas explosion attorneys in Atlanta, Georgia, can assist victims with their claims against the negligent parties that have caused their injuries.
A burn injury is among the most horrific injuries that can occur to a person. While some burns are minor, any injury that affects the skin through all of its layers and reaches the underlying tissue is catastrophic. Those severe burns that don’t result in death often leave the victim noticeably scarred for life. Because of the seriousness of these effects, our burn injury attorneys in Atlanta, Georgia, strive to help people who have been victimized because of another party’s actions obtain compensation.
Burn injuries can occur in a number of ways. Most people think immediately of fires when they think of burns, and with good reason. Auto accidents, defective products, and house fires can all put a person in danger of being burned. But flame – and, in fact, heat – are not necessary for a burn to occur. Scald injuries, in which hot liquid comes in contact with a person’s skin, can be just as dangerous. Chemical burns, caused when harmful substances are allowed to touch and remain on exposed parts of a person’s body, are another common type of burn injury. Scalds and chemical burns can occur in a number of settings, from the home to industrial workplaces. If someone else’s negligence has caused you to suffer a serious burn injury, contact our attorneys at their Atlanta, Georgia, offices today.
Natural gas, as an economical fuel for heating homes and cooking food, offers many benefits. But in order for one to take advantage of these benefits safely, natural gas lines and appliances must be designed, manufactured, installed, and maintained properly. If they are not, a devastating gas explosion can result.
Minor gas explosions can result in burn injuries and the loss of limbs. Unfortunately in many gas explosions victims frequently do not survive. Gas explosion accidents are especially cruel because they are so unpredictable. Leaky valves and other components in stoves, heaters, and grills can go unnoticed until it is too late, filling a home with dangerous gas that is inadvertently ignited. When this happens, surviving victims or relatives of those wrongfully killed can seek compensation from manufacturers and installers of faulty natural gas and propane equipment. Consumers should not have to worry about the basic safety of everyday household appliances. Our gas explosion attorneys in Atlanta, Georgia, can help ensure that they do not have to. By seeking damages on behalf of victims of negligence for lost wages, medical bills, pain and suffering, and loss of companionship, our lawyers send the message that businesses must act with care when serving their customers and must recognize their responsibility.
Electrocution injuries have some of the same outward appearance as burn injuries. Appearances do not always tell the whole story. As electricity passes through the body, it severely damages internal organs, potentially causing them to shut down and making it impossible for the victim to survive. People who have been electrocuted through the negligence of a third party, whether by faulty wiring at home or in an industrial accident deserve to be compensated. If you have been injured or lost a loved one because of an electrical accident, discuss your case with our lawyers today.
Catastrophic personal injuries can cause great anguish, but victims can still cope and move on. Part of that process may involve legal action. If you or someone you love has been victimized by a gas explosion or burn injury, contact our attorneys serving Metro Atlanta, Georgia residents today.
