CASE HIGHLIGHTS
Our Proven Results in Personal Injury Cases
Injuries Caused by Explosion Accidents
The force of an explosion can inflict a wide range of life-altering injuries, some immediately apparent and others that may develop over time. Common explosion injuries include:
Burn Injuries
Explosions often generate intense heat, resulting in severe burns that can require extensive medical treatment like skin grafts and long-term rehabilitation.
Spinal Cord Injuries
The impact of an explosion can cause significant damage to the spinal cord, potentially leading to paralysis, loss of sensation, and chronic pain.
Traumatic Brain Injuries
The force of a blast can also cause serious brain trauma, leading to cognitive impairments, memory problems, and emotional difficulties.
Broken Bones and Fractures
The impact and debris from an explosion can cause broken bones, requiring surgery and lengthy recovery periods.
Internal Injuries
The pressure wave from an explosion can cause internal damage to organs, leading to complications and long-term health problems.
Hearing Loss and Vision Impairment
The loud noise and flying debris from an explosion can cause hearing loss, while the intense light and heat can damage eyesight.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
The traumatic experience of an explosion can lead to PTSD, causing anxiety, nightmares, and emotional distress.
With such a wide spectrum of possible injuries, it’s crucial to seek immediate medical attention after an explosion — even if your injuries seem minor at first. Some injuries may not be immediately apparent, and early diagnosis and treatment can be essential for a full recovery.
Common Causes of Explosions
Explosions can have various causes, with many of them preventable and resulting from negligence. Common causes of explosions include:
Car Accidents
A car accident can cause explosions if a vehicle’s fuel tank is ruptured or if the battery is damaged.
Truck Accidents
Tanker trucks carrying flammable liquids pose a significant risk of explosion if involved in an accident.
Motorcycle Accidents
While less common, motorcycle accidents can result in explosions if the fuel tank is punctured.
Gas Leaks
Gas leaks in homes, businesses, or industrial facilities can create a dangerous buildup of flammable fumes, which can ignite with a spark or flame.
Chemical Spills
Industrial facilities that handle hazardous chemicals must adhere to strict safety regulations. Failure to follow these regulations can lead to catastrophic consequences such as explosions.
Workplace Accidents
Construction sites, manufacturing plants, and other workplaces may involve the use of flammable materials or equipment that can malfunction and cause explosions.
Defective Products
Faulty appliances, malfunctioning equipment, or defective products that contain flammable materials can explode, causing injuries to consumers.

Understanding Liability and Negligence in Explosion Cases
In order to build a successful explosion injury claim, you typically need to prove that someone else’s negligence caused the explosion and your injuries.
To this end, establishing liability in explosion cases often involves:
Identifying All At-Fault Parties
This could include property owners, employers, manufacturers, contractors, or other parties whose actions or inactions contributed to the explosion.
Determining the Cause of the Explosion
This requires a thorough investigation to determine the precise cause of the explosion, including gathering evidence such as accident reports, witness statements, and expert opinions.
Proving Negligence
It must be shown that any responsible parties breached their duty of care by failing to take reasonable steps to prevent the explosion. This could involve demonstrating that they ignored safety regulations, failed to properly maintain equipment, or acted recklessly.
Who Can Be Held Responsible for Your Injuries?
Depending on the circumstances of the explosion, multiple parties may be held liable for your injuries. This could include:
- Property owners: If an explosion occurs due to hazardous conditions on the property — such as a gas leak or faulty wiring — the property owner may be held liable.
- Employers: If an explosion occurs at a workplace due to an employer's negligence, they may be held liable.
- Manufacturers: If a defective product —such as a faulty appliance or a vehicle with a design flaw — causes an explosion, the manufacturer may be held liable.
- Contractors: If an explosion occurs due to negligent work of a contractor — such as improper installation of gas lines or faulty electrical wiring — the contractor may be held liable.
Our Las Vegas explosion injury lawyers have experience in identifying all potentially liable parties and building strong cases against them.
Understanding the Statute of Limitations for Explosion Injury Claims in Nevada
In Nevada, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims (including those arising from explosions) is two years from the date of the injury.
That’s why it’s crucial to consult with an explosion attorney as soon as possible after an explosion, so they have time to investigate the incident thoroughly, gather evidence before it’s lost or destroyed, identify all potentially liable parties, and file your claim within the statute of limitations.

Document the Scene

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I still file a claim if I was partially at fault for the explosion?
Nevada follows a modified comparative negligence rule that allows you to recover compensation even if you were partially at fault for the accident. However, your compensation would be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you were found to be 20% at fault, your compensation would be reduced by 20%.
How long does it take to settle an explosion injury claim?
The timeline for settling an explosion injury claim can vary depending on the complexity of the case, the severity of your injuries, and the willingness of the insurance company to negotiate fairly. To get an estimate, contact our team today.
What if the insurance company refuses to offer a fair settlement?
If the insurance company doesn’t offer a fair settlement, our experienced trial lawyers are prepared to take your case to court and fight for your rights before a judge and jury.
