San Antonio Exlosion Injury and Wrongful Death Lawyer
San Antonio Attorney Ramon Cervantes helps people who have been injured or the families
of those killed by an explosion. Explosions that are caused by the negligence of
others can happen on the job or at home. Explosions can tragically change a person’s
life in an instant. The injured person might become disabled for life and never
be able to maintain employment again. He or she may require medical care or therapy
for years (even for life). The cost of treatment is often greatly above what most
households can afford. That is why is important to seek the advice and counsel of
an attorney knowledgeable about explosion injuries.
Propane Tanks
Propane tanks need to be built, filled, and maintained with great caution. If the
pressure valve on the tank does not work properly, there is a potential for the
tank to rupture and explode. If a reconnection was not properly completed after
the propane tank was refilled, there is a potential for a leak and an explosion.
Lack of care around a propane tank can cause leaks. For example, a lawn mower bumping
into the tank or a shovel gouging the tank can cause leaks that later cause a fire
or explosion. Any partial failure, leak, or break of the tank or the lines leading
from the tank can cause an explosion.
Who is to blame?
Propane (and all liquid gas) should always be handled with great care and respect
because of the risk involved and the damage that can be done. When the tank has
defective parts that caused an explosion, the manufacturer may be to blame. If the
tank was damaged by a landscaping or construction crew, the contractor may be liable.
If the propane supplier failed to make a safe reconnection, the supplier may be
held liable for damages. If you or a loved one has been injured by a propane tank
