What to Do After being Injured in a Product Fire or Explosion

If you or someone you care about has been injured after a defective product exploded or caught fire, and you think you have a case, there are many important steps you should take to ensure a skilled product injury attorney can build the best possible case for you:

​

1.   Get medical help.

​

2.  Make an official report to the company, to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and, if applicable, your local police deWhy Hire a Product Injury Attorney?partment.

​

3.   Take photos of your injuries, the product, and any property damage.

​

4.   Record the details. Write down everything you can remember from the accident-include the time of day, what you were doing right before the accident happened, and include the names of any witnesses.

​

5.   Don't talk to an insurance adjuster. Sadly, insurance companies-even your own-often don't have your best interests at heart. Don't ever give a verbal or written statement before speaking to a product injury attorney. Our attorneys can be reached at 830-757-5879 for a no cost consultation.

Who is Liable for My Product Injury?

It's a common question among our product injury clients: Who is responsible for my/our injury?

To determine this, the nature of the defect needs to be understood. There are three main types of product defects. They include:

​

• Design Defects

• Manufacturing Defects

• Marketing Defects

​

While design and manufacturing defects are self-explanatory, marketing defects refer to those caused by insufficient safety warnings, mislabeling, or incomplete instructions.

Then it's time to determine who's liable for the defective product that caused your injury. 

The manufacturer, distributer, or the company that made a component of the defective product could be liable, and if they are, they are responsible for paying damages including:

​

• Current and future medical bills

• Compensation for lost wages

• Pain and suffering

​

      Think You Have a Case?

​

If you or someone you love has been seriously injured in a burn accident you believe was caused by a product's design, manufacturing or marketing defect, you likely want to know: Do I have a case?

That's where the product injury attorneys at The Herring Law Firm PC. When you call our experienced legal team, we will go to work gathering the details of your accident to determine if you have a case. 

Those details include:

​

• The severity of your injury
