An
industrial work site is typically filled
with a lot of activity, a lot of workers,
and many independent companies coordinating
activities. When the worst happens, and
an explosion or fire erupts and injures
or kills workers, it can be challenging
to understand the causes and the liable
parties.
We have a team of attorneys at the Keller
& Keller law firm who have the experience
it takes to sort through all the information
about an accident and determine who should
be held responsible.
- With fuel deliveries, huge boilers,
and high temperatures, electrical utilities
and their suppliers have to exercise
extreme caution in handling and burning
fuels. Fires and explosions can cause
devastating injuries and wrongful death.
- On any industrial site or construction
site, temporary electrical wiring, when
not properly installed and maintained,
can cause electrical burns and electrocution.
- Chemicals are important in manufacturing
and other industrial businesses. When
chemicals are mishandled, mislabeled,
improperly stored, or improperly mixed,
workers can be victims of painful, life-threatening
chemical burns.
- An unshielded vat on a glazing machine
can destroy an arm or leg. An unshielded
saw can cut off a limb. Safety shields
need to be in place and work properly
at all times to prevent burn injuries
and other industrial accidents.
Chemical burns, fires, explosions, and
other industrial accidents are often dismissed
as "accidental." Keller &
Keller’s attorneys have the technical
understanding to get beyond simplified
explanations. We know how to investigate
an accident and determine the causes for
chemical burn injuries.
When safety procedures are not in place
or are not followed, injuries are not
accidental. They are the result of negligence.
If you have suffered electrical or chemical
burns at work or if a loved one has died
because of chemical burns, we can help.
