Understanding the causes of propane tank explosions and the legal implications involved is crucial for protecting your rights and seeking compensation.

Causes of Propane Tank Explosions

Propane tank explosions can occur due to various factors, including:

  • Leaking Propane: Propane leaks can occur due to damaged tanks, faulty valves, or improper installations, leading to the buildup of flammable gas and the risk of explosions.
  • Faulty Equipment: Defects in propane tanks, regulators, or other equipment can increase the likelihood of malfunctions and explosions.
  • Improper Handling or Storage: Mishandling propane tanks, such as dropping or mishandling them, or storing them in unsafe conditions, can lead to accidents and explosions.
  • Lack of Maintenance: Failure to properly maintain propane tanks or address known defects can result in leaks, corrosion, or other issues that may lead to explosions.

Legal Implications

If you’ve been affected by a propane tank explosion, you may have grounds for a legal claim against the responsible party. Potential defendants may include:

  • Property Owners: Owners of properties where propane tank explosions occur may be liable for failing to maintain safe conditions or address known hazards.
  • Propane Suppliers or Distributors: Companies responsible for supplying or distributing propane may be held accountable for negligence or safety violations leading to explosions.
  • Contractors or Installers: Contractors or installers responsible for installing or servicing propane tanks may be liable for negligent installation or maintenance practices.

Bruce Millar The Millar Law Firm Atlanta, GA

As an Atlanta Attorney I have known Cale Conley personally for nearly 20 years. I first heard about Cale through other lawyers, who talked about his remarkable skill and great results as a trial attorney. When I finally had the chance to refer a case to Cale and work with him as a colleague, I was blown away by the level of his professionalism, knowledge and skill. Over the past few years I have referred several clients with large and complex cases to Cale and his firm and have been extremely impressed with the results he has obtained! In my opinion, Cale is one of the best Attorneys in the United States. Not just in Atlanta or Georgia, but anywhere. I am totally confident in referring any case or client to him. Not only is he a great attorney, he and his firm and partners take good care of clients and care deeply about them. If I could give Cale and his firm more than 5-Stars I would.

I had the pleasure of trying a very complicated products liability case with Cale Conley and Davis Popper. They and their entire office are fantastic, and I could not recommend them more highly. The entire process, from the time that we brought them in to work with us, through the course of the case and trial, was seamless. Cale, Richard, Rance, and Davis are some of the finest trial lawyers in the Country, and I look forward to working with them on future cases.
