How Do I Know if My Relative’s House Fire and Death Was Caused by a Defective Product?

We are saddened to hear of your loss and wish you the best during this difficult time.

When a home catches on fire, it can be for many different reasons. Sometimes, people leave candles lit or overload an extension cord, causing a fire. However, many house fires are often the result of defective products that have overheated and burst into flames.

In order to determine the cause of a home fire, fire investigators will come out to the scene once the fire has been extinguished. They will launch an investigation to determine the cause of the fire. They do this by analyzing fire debris. However, sometimes fire scene investigators do not form a conclusion as to what caused the fire. When this occurs, it is best for the family to hire a certified fire engineer to investigate.

If you believe your relative is a victim of a defective product that caught on fire, you should hire a wrongful death lawyer to make sure a thorough investigation is being done. A lawyer will be able to work on your behalf, hold the negligent company accountable, and fight the insurance company to get you and your family the compensation you deserve following your loved one’s wrongful death in Florida.
