Potential E-Cigarette Lawsuit Cases To Stem From E-Cigarette Explosion In Tustin Man’s Face

June 11, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com’s Marc Freund recently commented on the development in Tustin, California where a local man sustained injuries to his face following an e-cigarette explosion. Freund notes that “It is unforgivable that these electronic cigarettes, which are marketed as a safe replacement for smoking, actually present immediate dangers.” Attorney Freund urges the victim to remain optimistic while being treated and hopes that he is able to make a full recovery.

The condition of the victim is unclear according to NBC Los Angeles. As detailed in the local report, on June 4th in Tustin, California, a local man was smoking his e-cigarette when the device exploded. The Orange County Fire Authority indicate that a call came in at 10:30 p.m. with reports of a man burning, shortly after firefighters were on the scene. The victim sustained severe burns and cuts from the e-cig exploding in his face and has since been taken to a local hospital.

Regrettably this is not the first e-cigarette explosion. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) previously reported that there were 25 estimated e-cigarette explosions in total. However, new reports from TheProductLawyers.com with assistance from ECigOne.com have indicated that since August of 2009, there have been 193 recorded e-cig explosions.

Based off of the updated reports, the rate of e-cig explosions since 2009, has increased exponentially on a year-to-year basis. FEMA was correct, however, when stating that most of the e-cig explosions occurred while the lithium-ion battery was charging. Often times the e-cigarette would explode due to a voltage overload brought upon by a car outlet, or a computer’s USB port.

A similar e-cig explosion occurred in Albany on May 19th, where a young man’s device exploded during use, which knocked out several of the victim’s teeth, disfigured his tongue, and left his hands covered in severe burns. With the growing popularity of e-cigarettes, the risk of future explosions also increases.

Attorney Marc Freund of Lipsig, Shapey, Manus, & Moverman is hoping to assist all victims of e-cigarette explosions. Freund is offering complimentary consultations for victims so that they are granted the ability to seek extensive legal support in their time of need. Attorney Freund urges all individuals who have been affected by these devices to explore their complete legal rights.
