Questions About Lawsuits Involving Explosions and Fires
in Denver and throughout Colorado and Wyoming
What are some of the primary causes of explosions and fires?
Many people are injured, at home or on the job, by faulty equipment, faulty installation, poor maintenance, or other acts of negligence by others. Some explosion and fire accidents occur as a result of vehicle accidents. Others die or are seriously injured when defective products explode or catch fire. Still others are severely injured or die in explosions and fires at the workplace.
How do I determine the cause of a fire or explosion?
That requires trained investigators. Usually, local emergency services will send out an investigator to determine the cause. However, it is in your best interests to retain your own legal counsel to review that information with you. Burg Simpson has extensive experience representing victims of accidental explosions and fires. We work with experienced investigators to get to the actual causes of the fires and explosions so we can establish liability and recover damages for our clients.
What sort of damages can I recover?
Depending on the circumstances of the fire or explosion, and the types of damages incurred, you may be able to receive compensation for funeral expenses, current medical bills, ongoing care, pain and suffering, emotional trauma, lost wages and future income potential, and others.
