An electrical injury is a potentially fatal type of physical trauma that an individual can experience as a result of exposure to an electrical current which can be at a high or low voltage. In extreme situations, the sheer force of a larger current can make it impossible for the victim to let go of the object that is electrocuting them.
Electrical injuries can result in major injury or even death. In fact, 126 workers died from exposure to electricity in 2020, according to the National Fire Protection Association.
At Phillips Law Group, we understand the trauma that injury victims and their families often endure after a serious electrical shock injury and can help fight for the justice that they deserve.
