We are a law firm that helps people injured in fires in apartments, hotels, restaurants, nightclubs, condominiums, warehouses, and other business establishments.

We also represent firefighters and emergency responders injured while responding to fires which were the result of negligence or arson.

These violations can be identified and proved with the right professionals. Our Apartment Fire attorneys are here to fight for your rightful compensation if you were injured, or a loved one was killed, in an apartment fire accident.

Landlords who are negligent in maintaining their buildings are liable for damages to those who they injure or kill. Damages which may be recovered include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and loss of consortium for injury to a spouse.
If someone is killed as a result of an apartment fire, their survivors may be entitled the “full value of the life” of their family member.
In many cases, injuries are sustained when tenants or guests leap from high-level balconies to escape fires.
In most cases, damages caused by apartment fires are covered by liability insurance. We are able to assist clients in determining the amount of available insurance coverage and presenting claims to insurance carriers.
In the event a settlement cannot be reached, our Atlanta Apartment Fire Lawyers are able to take your case to trial.
Fires, Explosions and Burns May Be Caused By Such Problems As:
- Unsafe products, including flammable furniture, bedding, defective portable heaters, faucets and other defective products that are fire, explosion, burn or scald hazards
- Failure to install or maintain safety equipment such as smoke detectors, alarms and sprinklers
- Failure to safely install electrical wiring or gas lines
- Failure to “odorize” LP/natural gas
- Failure to provide appropriate warnings and instructions
- Failure to comply with federal, state or local safety codes
- Improper Use of Cooking Devices
- Improper use of small, open flame ignition sources such as candles, lighters and matches
- Failure to properly mark emergency exits.
In most cases, the cause and origin of the fire is determined by the local fire marshal, but on occasion it is necessary to retain our own cause and origin expert witnesses to determine the cause of a fire.
Our experienced Atlanta Apartment Fire Lawyers can help you navigate our network of expert witnesses to make the right call.
