Lawyers for Electrocution Injury Victims and Survivors

Electrocution injury is a leading cause of occupational fatalities. According to a study published by the Center for Injury Sciences at the University of Alabama, on-the-job electrocution injuries are most common in the electrical trades, construction, manufacturing, mining, and agriculture. Utility workers and electricians are at particularly high risk, but anyone can suffer a severe electric shock injury or death by electrocution.

At the Law Offices of Troy D. Burch, Jr., we represent victims of electric shock injuries and the survivors of those who died a wrongful death in an electrocution accident, including those involving:

• Overhead power lines
• Underground utility lines
• High voltage machinery
• Frayed or exposed wires
• Defective consumer products

One of our clients suffered a serious injury when he and his co-worker were drilling post holes in limestone using a tractor-mounted drill. They hit a utility line that should not have had power running through it. The co-worker was killed and our client lost the lower part of both legs in the accident. We achieved an excellent result due to our knowledge of the law and our aggressive pursuit of our client’s damages.

Because so many electrocution injuries happen on the job, victims and their families often believe they are unable to file a lawsuit, believing that workers' compensation death benefits are all they are entitled to receive. In many cases, we can sue a liable party other than the employer. Filing an injury or wrongful death claim after an electrocution accident can result in much greater amount of financial compensation for the victim or survivors.

It costs you nothing to learn if we can be of assistance to you. We represent clients on a contingency basis, so you pay no attorney fees unless we win your case. To learn more, please contact our law firm to arrange a free initial consultation.
