San Jose Explosions Lawyer

Santa Clara County Attorney for Victims of Explosion Accidents

In work contexts and in the course of people's daily lives, explosions can sometimes occur, and they can result in serious injuries or wrongful deaths of unsuspecting victims. These types of accidents can happen suddenly, and they will often knock victims unconscious. When a person is injured or killed by an explosion, it is left to investigators to determine the causes and identify the parties who were responsible. In cases where a property owner failed to take the necessary precautions to prevent explosions, a victim may be able to recover compensation through a premises liability lawsuit.

Helping Explosion Victims in the Bay Area

Explosions can occur in a variety of situations, and they can result in burn injuries and other forms of serious bodily harm. In one example case, we represented a client who took a propane tank to a gasoline station to fill it up. The tank was overfilled, causing gas to escape, and sparks from a nearby vehicle's catalytic converter led to a sudden fire that seriously injured our client. The service operator was determined to be liable for having overfilled the propane tank, and our client was able to recover compensation for the injuries they suffered.

Precedent-setting personal injury cases such as the example described above can help protect people against these types of injuries in the future. However, accidents involving explosions may still occur, and a person who has suffered burns, become blind or deaf, lost body parts, or suffered other injuries will need to understand how they can receive the proper treatment. Financial compensation can ensure that all costs of medical treatment will be covered, and it can also address other ways a person has been affected, such as a loss of income due to serious injuries. In cases where a person lost their life in an explosion, their surviving family members may be able to recover compensation that will allow them to address their financial and personal losses.
