How do Electrocution Injuries Happen?

Injuries from electrocution can happen for a number of reasons. On one hand, freak accidents can occur, causing serious injuries from out-of-control individuals. However, electrocution injuries often happen due to lack of care and negligence when it comes to a property’s equipment.

Some of the common causes of construction site electrocution injuries can stem from:

Many electrocution based injuries can be avoided with the necessary safety measures and care. In areas that have loads of power, such as office buildings or public spaces, property managers have a duty of care to all those utilizing power. Additionally, the manufacturers and service companies also need to be diligent in making sure that everything is running properly.

Unfortunately, there are times when negligence is apparent, and people get hurt because of it. If you have sustained any injuries that stem from electrocution, you may be able to file a claim and receive compensation.

This was the 1st time I've used Zanes Law. It was a fantastic experience for having to go through a situation most would rather not. The attorney and staff were always available to answer my questions and explained things clearly and were obviously 100% in my corner. My attorney, Jim, was very genuine and made me immediately comfortable when I came in to speak with him about my case. Every case manager I dealt with was patient and helpful. I would definitely return to Zanes should the time ever come again that I need a personal injury firm.

Zanes Law was a terrific legal experience. I first went to a law firm that only wanted me to go to physical therapy and pad the bill, so they could utilize my insurance policy to its capacity. Once I went to Zanes, they were honest, professional and prompt with calls almost once a week. Sometimes I got a call just because we did not have contact for close to two weeks. Some calls were to just ask how I was doing. I also received more money than originally discussed. Great job Zanes Law!!!!! If need be I will use their services again. THANKS
