Electrical Accident and Injury Information

More than 400 electrical accident deaths occur on job sites every year. Thousands of other workers are seriously injured (including sustaining brain and spinal cord injuries) due to faulty or defective electrical wiring. In addition to these work-related electrical injuries, an estimated 200 consumers die each year in electrical accidents caused by products such as hair dryers, microwaves, garden tools and extension cords, many of which do not properly protect consumers against electric shock. Electrical accidents attorneys at Pritzker | Olsen, P.A.represent both workers and consumers who have been injured in electrical accidents. We also represent families of victims who have been electrocuted (died as a result of an electric shock).

Causes of Electrical Accidents

Serious shocks, electrical fires, even deadly electrocutions can be caused by negligence in enforcing safety regulations, negligent maintenance, and deficient and defective equipment. If you or a loved one has been seriously injured in an electrical accident, contact Pritzker | Olsen, P.A.We vigorously pursue compensation for those injuries.

Compensation for Workers Injured in Electrical Accidents

Workers injured in electrical accidents are typically compensated for their monetary losses through workers’ compensation insurance. However, workers’ compensation benefits often prove insufficient to fully compensate injured workers for all damages sustained as a result of their work-related accident, and other avenues of recovery need to be pursued. Whether your electrical injury occurred on the job or at home, Pritzker | Olsen, P.A. , has the experience and expertise to explore every financial path of recovery available to you.

Compensation for Consumers Injured in Electrical Accidents

Consumers who have been electrocuted as the result of a defectively designed product have the right to file a claim against the manufacturer of the product to recover their damages including medical expenses, loss of current and future earnings, and pain and suffering.
