Senator Schumer Requests Federal Government Investigation Of E-Cig Explosion Reports Following New York Lawsuit Filings

May 24, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com reports on recent information published by Daily News surrounding the controversies of e-cigarette explosion allegations. Senator Chuck Schumer has requested that the federal government begin an investigation of reports of exploding e-cigarettes. He noted that at this time, at least 4 New York residents have come forward reporting painful injuries over the last few weeks, and have each attributed those injuries to electronic cigarette explosions and the fires that they say have followed.

The article notes that Schumer indicated new federal regulations will provide the U.S. Food and Drug Administration with the power to begin investigations upon these reported incidents and to require warning labels or, if necessary, recalls of the products. Also last week, the federal government noted that it will now require e-cigarettes to be further regulated by requiring that manufacturers submit their products for reviews.

In a recent e-cigarette explosion report in New York City, a woman stated that she was parking her car in Queens when her e-cigarette device suddenly exploded, ripping apart her jeans and burning her leg. She says that the device exploded with such force that it became embedded in her dashboard. The woman has pursued legal action following her injuries and is working with Attorney Marc Freund of Lipsig, Shapey, Manus & Moverman.

Attorney Freund is working to help several clients who have decided to pursue lawsuits after allegedly suffering from similar e-cigarette explosion injuries. He is also working to investigate these occurrences as he assists his clients, and he strongly encourages anyone who believes they have been injured by one of these devices to investigate their legal options fully. He notes that affected individuals may be entitled to significant compensation gained through legal action. To better assist those who wish to explore their opportunities moving forward, Freund is now offering free legal consultations for involved parties.
