Pittsburgh Explosion Lawyer
Unfortunately, explosions are far too common in Pennsylvania and throughout the United States, especially in warehousing facilities, manufacturing plants, and construction sites that are not adequately following strict safety protocols. This means that many Pittsburg workers risk on-the-job injuries from possible explosions every day.
In 2021, according to statistics, there were approximately 860 reported explosive incidents nationwide, with many of them occurring in the workplace.
If you were injured or lost a loved one in a workplace explosion, a Pittsburgh explosion lawyer from Morgan & Morgan, one of the nation’s leading personal injury law firms with 1,000 expert attorneys nationwide, may be able to help.

Causes of Explosions in Pittsburg
Some of the most common causes of Pittsburg explosions, particularly in the workplace, include:
- The improper handling and security of flammable materials.
- Inadequate fire safety infrastructure and equipment (such as fire extinguishers and sprinklers).
- Improper or insufficient employee training.
- Noncompliance with workplace safety and local building and fire code regulations.
In most cases, the victim of an explosion in the workplace will be eligible for workers compensation benefits. However, under Pennsylvania law, there are situations where you may be eligible to sue your employer or other responsible parties for a full range of damages. A Pittsburgh explosion lawyer will conduct a complete investigation and advise you on how to move forward after you’ve been injured in an explosion.
A damage award can include compensation for the following:
- medical expenses (both past and future)
- loss of wages and future earning capacity
- emotional trauma
- pain
- suffering
- loss of consortium
