You don’t have to take on the utility company alone. Talk to an experienced attorney today.
To find the best lawyer for your electrocution case, you need an experienced attorney who specializes exclusively in handling electricity-related cases. Your attorney should have a track record of success, a reputation for taking cases to trial, and 5-star reviews from his or her previous clients.
If you sustained serious injuries in an electrocution or electric shock accident, the most important decision you will make is the attorney you hire.
These cases are complex and require specialized knowledge. Defendants in electrocution cases tend to defend themselves aggressively, especially when the attorney across the aisle lacks expertise in this area of law. Finding an experienced lawyer who specializes in electrocution accidents and has a track record of success will almost always get better results because insurance companies and defense attorneys know when they’re up against a formidable opponent.
In fact, the insurance industry’s own research has shown that accident victims who are represented by experienced attorneys get up to four times more than those who are not.
You can find the best lawyers for your electrocution case at Electrocution Lawyers. Jeff Feldman and Chris Stombaugh specialize exclusively in helping people who have been injured or lost loved ones in electrocution and electric shock accidents. They have tried more electrocution cases than most other injury attorneys in the country and they have a track record of winning million-dollar trial verdicts and settlements for their clients.
How to find the best lawyer for your electrocution case
There are 5 key factors when it comes to finding and choosing the best lawyer for your electrocution case. They are:
- Experience – How much experience does the attorney have? You want to find a lawyer who handles electrocution accident cases day in and day out.
- Specialized knowledge – Does the attorney specialize exclusively in electricity accidents? If he or she only “dabbles” in these cases, you won’t get the specialized knowledge you need to win your case. You want an attorney who handles no other types of cases.
- Track record – Has the attorney won million-dollar settlements and trial verdicts for his or her clients?
- Reputation – What do insurance companies and defense attorneys think when they know they’re up against this attorney? Do they know they’re in for a battle if they don’t make a full settlement offer? You want to find an electrocution accident lawyer who is respected and known for taking cases to trial when the insurance company refuses to make a fair settlement offer.
- Reviews – What are the attorneys’s former clients saying about him or her? You should see 5-star reviews praising the attorney’s legal representation and personalized service.
What is an electrocution case?
An electrocution case is a legal action taken by an individual who sustained an electrocution or electric shock injury due to a property owner’s neglect in maintaining a safe environment. Property owners can be held responsible for injuries if they were aware of, or reasonably should have been aware of, a dangerous condition on their property that could harm others.

Do I need to find a lawyer for my electrocution injury or death case?
Although finding and hiring a lawyer for your electrocution case is not a legal requirement, securing an experienced electrical accident attorney soon after your injury can greatly influence the size and speed of your settlement. Electrocution and electric shock cases are intricate and demand specialized knowledge and expertise. Utility companies often mount strong defenses, especially when the attorney handling the case lacks experience in this specific area of law. Therefore, it’s essential to hire an attorney quickly, ensuring they specialize in this field and have a proven success record.
Finding a skilled electrocution accident lawyer can help secure larger and faster settlements by quickly establishing liability and assessing damages. Early action also allows for a comprehensive evaluation of available insurance policies and financial resources, ensuring all potential funding options are considered. Additionally, an experienced attorney will work with top experts to strengthen your case and negotiate aggressively with insurance companies, ultimately aiming for the best possible outcome.
What is the legal process?
There are several steps to the legal process in a electrical injury case, including:
- Investigation – A seasoned attorney will begin by conducting a thorough investigation of the accident to determine fault and damages.
- Lawsuit – Once your attorney has built your case, he or she will file an electric shock lawsuit against the negligent party or parties, demanding pain and suffering compensation as well as reimbursement of medical expenses and lost wages.
- Settlement or trial – Once your lawsuit is filed, your attorney will negotiate a settlement that reflects the full value of your case. If the insurance company does not make a full and fair offer, he or she will proceed to trial.
How to win an electrocution case
To succeed in an electrocution case, you must find a lawyer who can prove the following:
- The electrical utility company or other responsible party owed you a duty of care
- The electrical utility company or other responsible party breached its duty of care
- The breach caused your injuries
- As a result of your injuries, you suffered pain and suffering and economic damages such as medical expenses and lost wages
Where do most electrical accidents happen?
Electrical accidents can occur in various environments, but they are most prevalent at construction sites, industrial locations, and during utility work due to constant exposure to electrical systems. These incidents also take place in residential, commercial, agricultural, and oil and gas settings. The most frequent locations for electrical accidents include:
- Construction sites – Electrical accidents are common at construction sites due to the constant exposure to live wires, power tools, and high-voltage equipment.
- Industrial settings – Workers in manufacturing and industrial environments face electrical hazards from complex machinery and malfunctioning electrical systems.
- Utilities and power lines – Those working with power lines and electrical infrastructure are at significant risk of electrocution or electric shock.
- Residential areas – Faulty wiring, improper use of appliances, and DIY electrical work can lead to accidents at home.
- Commercial and retail spaces – Electrical accidents can happen in these settings because of faulty outlets, improper equipment usage, or inadequate safety maintenance.
- Agricultural sites – Farm workers are exposed to electrical hazards from equipment, irrigation systems, and maintenance tasks.
- Offshore oil and gas platforms – The presence of high-voltage equipment and hazardous materials increases the risk of electrical accidents on rigs and platforms.
