E-cigarettes, also known as an e-cig and vapes, are growing in popularity. They are especially prevalent amongst people who are trying to quit smoking traditional cigarettes. Vaping and e-cigs are also popular with younger groups. Unfortunately, even minors partake in them as part of a growing culture. People who vape make the claim that e-cigarettes are safer than standard cigarettes. However, they are actually dangerous for reasons that people are unaware of.
With such flimsy regulations imposed on e-cigarettes by the FDA, it is no wonder that so many of these devices explode into the user’s face. According to WebMD, there were 195 documented cases of an e-cig exploding into the user’s face. Despite the fact that these injuries have vanished from media and news headlines, the accidents are still common and occur with no sign of slowing down. If you or a loved one have suffered an injury from vaping, you need to call a Jacoby and Meyers e-cig explosion lawyer for compassionate legal representation towards getting you the actual medical treatment you need to resume life, along with the highest possible case settlement for your pain, suffering, and losses.
Is it More Cost Effective to Hire an E-Cig Explosion Lawyer, or Settle Through Insurance?
It is common inside knowledge amongst insurance companies that when an injured person has an e-cig explosion lawyer, more than 80 percent of settlements are significantly higher, in some cases even by the millions. This is why insurance companies are so eager to get your deposition over the phone.
