South Florida Electrocution Injury Lawyer, Florida Electrocution Injury Attorneys

South Florida electrocution injury lawyer David I. Fuchs has over 17 years of experience in successfully representing electrocution injury victims, their families and friends who have sustained and suffered serious bodily injuries because of the negligence of the a power company, it's agents, or employees, or the manufacturer, designer or distributor of a defective product or appliance.

The number of work-related accidental electrocution victims continues to rise. Frequently, employer negligence is the cause when a worker is killed or seriously injured after contacting power lines and exposed electrical sources.  Most on the job injuries that occur in  Florida are covered by the workers compensation laws of Florida.  And while workers' compensation provides some compensation for an injured worker's monetary losses and provides benefits to dependants in death by electrocution cases, the benefits are often insufficient.

Defective products cause an alarming number of electrocution injuries.  If you were electrocuted while using a hair dryer, household appliance, power tool or any other product that runs on electricity, you may have the right to file a claim against the designer, manufacturer and distributor of the product to recover your medical expenses, loss earnings, loss of enjoyment and pain and suffering.

Contact with overhead power lines accounts for approximately two-fifths of fatal electrocutions. Electric companies know how dangerous power lines are; yet individuals are electrocuted with alarming frequency.  Electric companies have a general duty to the public to:

  • Properly install and maintain their wires
  • Fix sags in power lines
  • Keep power lines from running too close to a house
  • Fix power lines that have been knocked down in a storm.

When the power company fails to exercise reasonable care in protecting the public in these situations, they can be held responsible.

Electrocution cases can evolve from the following:

  • Electrical Warnings
  • Failure to Kill Electricity
  • Inadequate Training
  • Non-Insulated Wiring
  • Power Line Cases
  • Substandard Wiring
