Explosion Accident Attorney

Last updated on September 6, 2024

When someone is involved in an unexpected explosion, it can lead to severe, life-altering injuries. These may include third-degree burns, internal bleeding, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), disfigurement and scarring, infections and mobility limitations – just to name a few examples. Explosions may also harm numerous people at once, as they can be mass casualty events. This is likely if the explosion happens in a public place, like a store, a school or a local business.

Howard, we have more than four decades of experience representing injury victims. Known for our dependability, our Oxnard law firm has recovered millions for our clients over the years.

Types Of Explosions And Injuries

Each case is unique, and there are many different potential types of explosions, including:

  • Gas
  • Chemical
  • Electrical
  • Thermal
  • Mechanical

These events can happen without warning, such as a gas leak explosion in a restaurant or a hotel. Because these explosions are so violent and sudden, they can lead to serious injuries, such as:

  • First, second or third-degree burns
  • Loss of limbs
  • Loss of sight
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  • Scarring
  • Nerve damage
  • Pulmonary barotrauma
  • Concussions
  • Internal organ injuries
  • Spinal cord injuries

In some cases, explosion victims suffer fatal injuries, leaving behind devastated loved ones and dependents, who also deserve compensation.
