Jefferson County Defective Product Attorney
A strong electrical shock is more than just painful. If enough amperage passes through your body, it can result in serious burns to skin and internal organs, including injuries to the heart and brain. Breathing can become difficult and long-term medical problems can result.
Electrical injuries consist of four main types: electrocution (fatal), electric shock, burns and falls caused as a result of contact with electrical energy.
If you suffered electrical injury at work or at home because of a defective product or improper safety warning, you may have a legitimate legal case for seeking full and fair money damages for medical care, lost current and future earnings, and pain suffering associated with the injury and ongoing treatment. Call the personal injury attorneys at the Drake Law Firm in Birmingham, Alabama. Since we opened our doors in 1998, we have successfully represented many plaintiffs seeking compensation from insurance companies responsible for covering the liable party.
Electrical Injuries Resulting From Workplace Accidents
Each year, hundreds of American workers are killed by electrocution injuries while on the job.
The electrocution accident attorneys at Drake Law Firm commonly deal with electrocution injuries caused by:
- Boom truck contact
- Dump truck contact
- Poorly insulated bucket truck
- Industrial electrocutions
- Crane operator, backhoe or jackhammer cuts through an underground cable
- Dangerous temporary wiring
- Dangerous power lines
- Unattended water near wiring
- Motor control centers
Electrical standards require power lines to either be 1) isolated, 2) insulated or 3) de-energized in order to protect people from injury due to electrocution. Too often, the daily news reports a tragic electrical injury caused to a child while climbing a tree or playing near low-hanging power lines.
