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.
Subin Associates, LLP, is an established and accomplished New York City personal injury law firm and Brooklyn wrongful death law firm. 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:
- Chemical explosions
- Steam explosions
- Manhole explosions
Injuries caused by explosions usually include 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 skin, may include blistering, typically heal with 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 Subin Associates, LLP, represents you after an explosion injury, you can rest assured that our top priority is to see that you receive maximum available compensation as quickly as possible.
