Electrocutions

Electrocution injuries can happen at workplace or even at home when using electrical equipments or merely coming in contact with a power line.

If the electrocution injury happens at the workplace, the employers, contractors, and subcontractors are all potential defendants who can be held liable.

A person can also suffer electrocution injury at anytime, anywhere even while walking on the road by coming in contact with a power line. In such cases, the utility company will be liable for negligence. Typically these injuries occur in construction settings or doing tree work.

If your loved died from electrocution, or if you have severe injuries resulting from an electrical shock, you may be entitled to compensation for the sufferings, contact a West VA lawyer at Anapol Schwartz.
