E-Cig Explosion Wounds Oklahoma Man’s Face, Encourages Potential E-Cigarette Lawsuit Cases

June 01, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com reports on a recent e-cigarette explosion in Oklahoma where a local man sustained significant injuries from a defective device. According to Kfor.com, a local Oklahoma man has suffered significant damage due to his e-cigarette exploding in his face.

The victim stated “I was loading more juice into it and, all of a sudden – I can’t remember if I had it facing me or the bottom facing me, but there was a loud flash and bang, and a piece of scrap metal hit me in the head,” Thankfully, the man’s parents woke up from the explosion and took their 22-year-old son to the emergency room, where he received 8 stitches.

Although these explosions occur in the blink of an eye, FEMA has concluded that most cases arise from the overheating of lithium-ion batteries. These batteries are unstable at times, and when too much internal pressure is contained within the battery, it projects the energy through the seal end of the battery, causing an explosion. About 80 percent of these explosions have occurred while the battery was charging due to a voltage overload. Some victims of these explosions and their families have compared the sound of the explosion to that of a gunshot. The victim’s father claimed, “ I heard what I thought was a gunshot in the living room.”

FEMA states that there have been at least 25 reported e-cigarette explosions. Yet, this number is very likely much lower than the actual number of explosions due to underreporting. One such explosion occurred in California in 2013, where a couple was on their way to the airport and their lithium ion battery exploded in the car while it was charging. The driver sustained second-degree burns on a large portion of her lower body, and hands along with severe emotional trauma. The e-cig, her lawsuit alleged, didn’t have necessary safety measures in place, and the businesses involved did not provide adequate precautions to the dangers of her device. In October of 2015, the victim was awarded a $ 1.9 million dollar settlement for damages.

The attorneys at Lipsig, Shapey, Manus, & Moverman are offering their assistance for those who have suffered injuries from e-cig explosions. Marc Freund is one of the attorneys taking this issue head-on to ensure that each individual harmed in these explosions is able to understand their complete legal rights. Freund states “ Manufacturers have a basic duty to produce safe products, and e-cig retailers have a responsibility to warn their customers of known risks.” Some victims may be entitled to financial compensation, and attorney Freund is offering free consultations to affected parties.

Construction Accident Lawyer Urges Victims To Seek Justice

June 01, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com’s personal injury attorney Tom J. Moverman comments on the increasing number of construction accidents in New York.

According to the New York Department of Buildings, the number of construction accidents that resulted in injuries has nearly doubled from 2014 to 2015. In 2015 alone, 433 accidents resulted in injuries to 471 people – both construction workers and pedestrians. While some believe the rising numbers are due to an increase in construction projects, Mr. Moverman believes that if building developers, owners, general contractors, and subcontractors were held accountable for violating OSHA safety standards, fewer accidents would occur.

Mr. Moverman has noted that even though OSHA exists to protect people from accidents by creating rules and regulations regarding safety on a construction site, the department is much smaller than most people imagine. There are only around 2,200 inspectors available for the more than 130 million American workers. There is no way that any one worker can inspect the work sites they are responsible for on a regular basis and it is for this reason that many employers choose to ignore certain safety standards which cost them time and money.

In his time at Lipsig, Shapey, Manus, and Moverman, P.C., Mr. Moverman has represented hundreds of construction accident victims and has helped them get the compensation they both need and deserve. In one specific case, he helped a worker who was injured when defective scaffolding caused him to fall resulting in permanent injuries to his knee. At the end of a trial, a jury awarded the plaintiff $2.6 million for his past and future medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

To learn more about the legal options that are available to injured construction workers, contact an attorney at Lipsig, Shapey, Manus, and Moverman, P.C. today for a consultation by calling (646) 846-4496.

Construction Accident Lawyer Obtains $43 Million Verdict For Worker

June 01, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com has announced that one of their partners recently took his client’s case to trial and was able to obtain a successful verdict which awarded $43 million in compensation to the plaintiff.

At trial, the plaintiff talked about his accident which has left him in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. He had attended a friend’s party in an apartment building in Brooklyn and a group decided to go up to the roof to enjoy the night views. While he was on the roof, he indicated to the party host that he needed to use the restroom. Since there was no restroom on the roof, the host suggested that he use an empty Gatorade bottle in a more private part of the building. He agreed and began to walk to the section which the host indicated was a bit more secluded. In the darkness, he was unable to see a gap between apartment buildings. He stepped right into that gap and fell nearly 70 feet to the ground below.

He survived the fall but his spine suffered irreversible damage and left him paralyzed.

Mr. Alan Shapey of Lipsig, Shapey, Manus, & Moverman, P.C. represented the plaintiff in his personal injury case which was filed against the building developer who built the apartment building. During the trial, Mr. Shapey referenced a 1968 law which requires all rooftops which may be used for entertainment to have a ten-foot high fence around the edge. At the time of the accident, there was no fence in place.

The jury awarded the plaintiff $2.7 million for past damages and $41 million for future expenses that are expected.

This isn’t the first case in which a member of the firm has been able to secure a multi-million dollar verdict for their client. Since it was first established in 1989, the firm’s team of experienced lawyers have assisted thousands of New Yorkers who have been hurt in personal injury accidents. To learn more about the firm or to request a consultation, call (646) 846-4496.

E-Cigarette Explosion Propels Scrap Metal At Barmaid, Sparking Potential E-Cig Lawsuit Filings

June 01, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com reports on a recent e-cigarette explosion in North Yorkshire in the United Kingdom where a barmaid sustained minor injuries. According to BBC.com a barmaid working at a pub in North Yorkshire, in northern England, was struck by an exploding e-cig that was charging behind the bar.

The victim says that “she was shocked when she was hit by the device.” Thankfully, the individual involved only suffered minor injuries from the explosion and didn’t sustain any permanent damage to her body. However, multiple firefighters that responded to the incident at the Bucks Inn Hotel in Richmond concluded that “lesser known brand e-cigarettes are a potential fire hazard.”

Regardless of the timetable of these explosions, the effects can be both physical and emotional and can be detrimental to individuals for a lifetime. In the United States, FEMA has ended the speculation behind the origin of these incidents and has stated that in most cases the lithium-ion batteries are to blame. These batteries aren’t made under intensive guidelines, especially for the lesser-known brands of e-cigarettes. When the batteries internal pressure rises too high, which occurs most often during charging, the battery releases the pressure causing an explosion.

FEMA concludes that at least 25 explosions have occurred between 2009 and 2014 in the U.S., and the rate of explosions has increased in conjunction with the rise of e-cigarette usage. One such case, occurred in Oklahoma where a young gentleman sustained severe injuries to his head from his e-cigarette exploding. The 22-year-old Oklahoma local was rushed to the emergency room, where he received 8 stitches. Luckily for the Oklahoma resident, a burning piece of the e-cig did not spark the carpeting and lead to a house fire, which could have produced more extensive damages.

The attorneys of Lipsig, Shapey, Manus, & Moverman are offering their assistance and legal services to the victims of these e-cig explosions. Marc Freund is one of the attorneys who has made it his mission to act as a helping hand for these victims so that each individual can evaluate their legal rights. Freund insists that “Warnings about these products are few and far between. In our experience, even retailers aren’t advising customers about the dangers of e-cigarettes.” Certain individuals may be entitled to financial compensation, and attorney Marc Freund is offering free consultations so that all victims of these devastating incidents will be able to analyze their legal rights.

Oregon Diversion Firm Offers DUI and DUI Diversion Consultations At No Fee

Oregon Diversion Firm offers help to DUI offenders in order to avoid criminal charges. Sunil Raju brings his experience as a former prosecutor to help DUI offenders.

Beaverton OR – June 1, 2016 /MarketersMedia/ —

Oregon Diversion Firm and Sunil Raju are pleased to announce that they are able to help most first time DUI offenders qualify for Oregon’s DUI Diversion program and avoid criminal charges. Repeat offenders can be helped by the representation of the former prosecutor. Sunil Raju served more than five years as a prosecutor and became tired of hassling people. He turned his attention to helping the “little guy” to receive fair and just treatment from law enforcement and from the justice system.

According to Sunil Raju, speaking in an interview recently, “If you or a loved one has been charged with DUI in Oregon, then I can help. In my past life as a former DUI prosecutor, I literally prosecuted over 1,000 DUI drivers. I know the ins and outs of the system, where things go wrong, and how harsh it can be. Prosecutors have the police at their beck and call, as a former DUI prosecutor, I can be on your side.”

For those offenders who are facing a first time DUI, it is important to remember that regardless of how they choose to take care of the DUI, there is a risk of maximum penalties. The options are to enter the DUI Diversion program, to plead guilty to the charge, or by taking the case to trial. The maximum penalties include one year in jail, court fines, years of probation, a criminal conviction and a one-year driver’s license suspension.

Choosing a Diversion program, which can last as long as eighteen months allows offenders to avoid many of the maximum penalties at the beginning. Failure at any point in the program leaves the offender to face all the original penalties. For a repeat DUI offender, police and prosecutors tend to be much harder on the individual. It is still important to have a skilled and experienced attorney on the case.
