Fireworks can be a fun way to celebrate, but our team sees firsthand how quickly things can go wrong when safety slips. Whether you’re watching a show or lighting a few at home, it’s important to know the risks so you can help keep everyone safe.
Some of the most common fireworks-related injuries include:
• Burn injuries, which make up more than a third of all fireworks injuries and often impact hands, arms, and exposed skin. Even sparklers burn hot enough to cause serious harm.
• Eye injuries that can lead to lasting vision issues when fireworks are viewed too closely or handled improperly.
• Lacerations, hearing damage, and respiratory irritation caused by malfunctioning devices or excessive smoke.
• Severe injuries involving aerial shells or mortars, which can result in long-term disabilities.
If you or someone you love is injured due to a fireworks incident, you don’t have to navigate the aftermath alone. As a Huntington Beach personal injury law firm, we help individuals throughout Orange County understand their rights and pursue the compensation they may be entitled to.
