Electric Burn – Child Injuries & Accidents

Electrical burn injuries occur when an electric current is passed through the body. These types of burns are often serious, especially for young children, with damage ranging from skin burns to damage to tissue and internal organs. Children commonly experience electric burns when coming in contact with batteries, electric outlets, power lines, electrical cords, and poorly manufactured or defective toys.

Symptoms of Electric Burns

Electric burns have symptoms similar to other types of burns. However, not only can electric burns cause visible damage to the skin, they can cause other serious symptoms including:

• Elevated heart rate
• Trouble breathing
• Dizziness
• Seizures
• Balance issues
• Memory loss
• Bloody urine
• Bleeding from the mouth

Liability in Electric Burn Injuries

While children are naturally curious and spend a good bit of their time exploring their environment, electric burns are not always caused by this need to learn about the world around them. A large percentage of electric burn injuries are caused by defective and dangerous products and toys, especially those that plug into electric outlets or those that do not come with proper warning labels.

Electric burns can also be caused by negligent supervision on the part of a babysitter, nanny, or caregiver. If your child suffered an electric burn injury due to the actions or inactions of someone entrusted to care for your child, or their burns were due to a defective product, those responsible could be found liable for the injuries and damages that your child sustained.

An experienced personal injury lawyer can review your case and determine who may be liable for your child’s injuries and what compensation you may be entitled to. We at 844 See Mike are proud to serve our fellow citizens in personal injury cases, especially when you or a loved one has been injured, and we are fully committed to protecting your rights and ensuring that the other party is held legally accountable when negligence occurs.
