Sumner Law Group

Regardless of whether you are attending a fireworks show or planning to put on a small display of your own, it is important to remember that fireworks can cause serious injuries if not used with caution. A couple of common types of fireworks-related injuries include:

🔹 Burn injuries account for 37% of fireworks injuries and often affect hands, arms, and exposed skin. Even sparklers burn at extremely high temperatures and can cause serious burns.

🔹 Eye injuries can involve permanent vision impairment when safe viewing distances are not maintained.

🔹 Lacerations, hearing loss, and respiratory irritation can occur when devices malfunction, explode unpredictably, or produce excessive smoke or noise exposure.

🔹 More severe injuries from fireworks typically involve aerial shells or mortars from fireworks and may lead to long-term disability.

While being aware of these injuries is key to preventing them, it cannot prevent them outright. Having dedicated legal support is key in the event of an injury.

Big trucks need a lot more room to turn than most drivers realize.

With a turning radius that can reach up to 55 feet, commercial trucks often have to swing wide or use more than one lane just to complete a turn safely. When other vehicles crowd that space, the risk of a serious collision increases quickly.

If you or someone you love has been injured in a truck accident, contact the Sumner Law Group. Our team is here to help you understand your rights. ⚖️🚛

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad our team could help you navigate your case and work toward a strong settlement.
