Residential Fire Protection at Garber Law
Experienced Personal Injury Attorney in New Jersey and Pennsylvania
Residential fires can cause home and property damage, severe personal injuries and even wrongful death in the worst cases. Sometimes, these fires are the result of negligence on behalf of the property owner and deserve adequate compensation for the lives and families of the victims.
At Garber Law, we have over two decades of legal experience handling cases involving residential fires that have caused personal injury and wrongful death in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Our firm has held property owners accountable for their actions and has recovered millions of dollars on behalf of our clients.
We hire fire investigators and other specialists to help determine the cause of the fire and what could have been done by the property owner to reasonably prevent the fire. Our firm has worked with residential fires in homes and apartment complexes and understands that while recovering compensation for our clients may not bring their property or loved ones back, it can give them a helping hand in moving forward with their lives.
Causes of Residential Fires
There are many preventable causes of residential fires, and in many cases, property owners could have taken reasonable steps to protect their residents. These causes include:
- Faulty wiring
- Upholstered, flammable furniture
- Faulty gas lines that lead to explosions
- Flammable liquids or other hazardous conditions on the premises
- Faulty smoke detectors and other security measures
- Buildings not built up to code, which prevented residents from exiting the property immediately
Some residential fires are not preventable, but in many cases, small actions on behalf of a property owner could have saved thousands of dollars in property damage, along with the well-being of the building's residents. An experienced premises liability lawyer can help you get the representation and recovery that you deserve.
