Compensation in Gas Explosion Cases
While compensation cannot undo the trauma of a gas explosion, it serves critical purposes in your recovery. Financial recovery helps manage immediate medical costs, long-term care needs, and lost income during recovery. It also acknowledges the profound physical and emotional impact of these devastating incidents. Potential damages in a gas explosion case may include:
- Current and future medical expenses
- Rehabilitation and therapy costs
- Lost wages and earning capacity
- Property damage and restoration
- Pain and suffering
- Temporary housing expenses
- Loss of quality of life
- Permanent disfigurement or disability
In cases where gross negligence or willful misconduct led to the explosion, punitive damages may be awarded to punish responsible parties and prevent future incidents.
The amount of compensation varies based on injury severity, impact on your life, and the strength of evidence establishing liability. Our experienced gas explosion attorneys will thoroughly document all damages to maximize your recovery.
