Alleged E-Cig Explosion Leaves Teen Blind In Left Eye, E-Cigarette Explosion Lawsuit Case Filed

June 13, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com reports on an e-cigarette explosion involving a boy, age 14, from Brooklyn, New York which occurred at a mall kiosk and led to permanent injury and blindness. The teen approached the Plaza Vapes kiosk near the entrance of the Kings Plaza Mall, and the sales associate installed a battery in one of the devices and handed it to him. The electronic cigarette then exploded, reports the boy, who sustained a severe hand injury and was permanently blinded in his left eye as a result.

State and local laws prohibit the sale of e-cigarette devices to minors, leaving many questioning why the teen and his friends were allowed to approach the kiosk in the first place. The boy and his father have chosen Attorney Marc Freund to represent their case. Attorney Freund notes that, in addition to marketing to underage youth, the kiosk was absent the appropriate signage to let children know that the products sold there are restricted by law, until after the incident took place. Becoming aware of a variety of situations in which e-cigarettes can pose a risk, he is currently working with other clients who reportedly experienced e-cigarette explosions and resulting harm, such as a Queens woman whose leg was burned by an e-cigarette exploding in her pocket.

Attorney Marc Freund of Lipsig, Shapey, Manus & Moverman is looking to assist victims of e-cigarette explosions to assist them in exploring their legal options. Those who believe they have been harmed by an e-cigarette are greatly encouraged to explore their legal options in the matter, as they may be entitled to significant compensation. To better assist individuals who wish to investigate their rights more fully, Attorney Freund is now offering free legal consultations to qualified parties.
