You can see some of the welding accident cases we’ve handled successfully on our Verdicts and Settlements page.
Welding is an especially dangerous occupation. It requires special training and safety equipment in order to minimize the risk of burns, explosion, and exposure to toxic chemicals and intense light and ultraviolet and infrared radiation.
Explosions and Burns
Welders who work on unfamiliar jobsites, however, but may be exposed to dangerous situations through the carelessness of a job site manager or property owner who fails to properly prepare the jobsite for the welder, or who fails to inform the welder of the true conditions of the task.
We represented a welder who was seriously burned as the result of an explosion when working for a customer who had failed to clean and ventilate a tank that was to be repaired. The tank blew upward, sending the worker into the air and injuring another worker nearby. In this complex case, we worked with a welding expert to determine if the explosion was the result of negligence, was a natural risk, or was due to the negligence of the property owner. We were able to prove our case for negligence and our client received financial compensation.
Toxic Exposure
The normal use of welding rods releases toxic fumes that may cause serious and debilitating illnesses such as Parkinson’s disease, lung cancer, and kidney disease from metal poisoning. Workers who have been exposed to welding rod fumes for two or more years as a welder, welder’s helper, or pipe fitter may have symptoms of toxic exposure. If you are concerned that you have been exposed to toxic fumes from welding rods, contact an attorney.
