Explosion Injury

Explosion Injuries & Legal Representation

In the words of the New York Office of Emergency Management (OEM), “Building collapses or explosions can result from structural damage, a gas leak, or sabotage.” Such explosions can injure residents or bystanders, causing serious burn injuries resulting in disfigurement and other types of injuries. It is important to investigate the accident scene in detail in order to understand the true causes of an explosion. Understanding the cause of an explosion is a first step in determining liability: who should be held responsible to compensate the injured.

If you were injured in an explosion, call Cerchione Hurowitz Law Group LLP at 646-666-3030 for advice and representation.

Our legal team is well prepared to evaluate any type of explosion injury, including those caused by explosions on the job as well as explosions occurring under circumstances such as the following:

Explosions at construction sites usually result in serious burns. Burn injuries vary in severity by degree:

• First-degree burns are painful but superficial and typically heal without scarring within a week or so.
• Second-degree burns damage the top layers of the skin, may include blistering, typically heal within a month and may result in scarring.
• Third-degree burns seriously damage skin as well as underlying tissues and even bones. Lasting disfigurement may be the outcome after all healing has completed its course.

If Cerchione Hurowitz Law Group LLP represents you after an explosion injury, you can rest assured that our top priority is to see that you receive available compensation for your construction site accident injuries as quickly as possible.
