Making landfall as nearly a Category 5 Hurricane, Ian’s high-speed wind and flood waters demolished entire communities, leaving our neighbors in Southwest Florida devastated and powerless. In response to the state of emergency issued by Governor Ron DeSantis, 42,000 linemen arrived in Florida to aid in the storm recovery.
Despite the dangerous landscape, linemen and utility workers are tasked with repairing down power lines and blown or damaged transformers to restore power to the residents, increasing their exposure and risk for injuries.
In the event a lineman, utility worker, or contractor suffers a catastrophic injury or fatality during the repair and restoration process, their attorneys must take immediate action.
At Clark, Fountain, La Vista, Prather, Littky-Rubin & Whitman, our personal injury attorneys have represented injured linemen, utility workers, and survivors who have lost a loved one to electrocution.
Our legal team specializes in Electrical injury and Electrocution cases, we can assist attorneys and co-counsel with:
- Evaluating Fact Patterns
- Analyzing Liability Theories
- Identifying Multiple Defendants
- Common Defense Strategies
- Severe Electrical Injuries
The Power of Partnering with Clark Fountain
Our firm has the resources to take cases to their absolute conclusion—no matter how long they take or how difficult they are. Some of our cases have even required legislative bills to be signed by the Governor for our clients to receive compensation awarded to them. Electrocution cases often require us to fight to hold international corporations accountable in American courts, and require years and years of litigation and appeals. In each of these cases, we prevailed because we never back down before a fight is finished, and we never lose sight of the goal: our client’s well-being.
