Burn Accidents/Gas Explosions

Each year in the United States, over two million people receive burn injuries of varying degrees, many in accidents for which they were not at fault. Many victims receive severe, sometimes fatal, burns due to natural and propane gas explosions. In addition, a defective motor vehicle or piece of machinery can result in accidental fires or electrocution. The failure of a property owner to warn people of hot surfaces or scalding liquids can also contribute to serious burn injuries. Many burn victims are injured in the commission of their job-related duties, often as the result of unsafe working conditions or the failure of their superiors to provide proper safety equipment or adequate supervision. Whatever the cause, serious burn injuries can lead to lost wages, tremendous pain and suffering, and substantial medical bills.
