On July 15, 2019, our client, a 27-year-old mother of two, endured a harrowing experience when her home exploded moments after she re-entered on the advice of local fire officials. The explosion occurred about an hour after a solar panel company negligently punctured a gas line. Despite initial appearances of minor physical injuries, our client suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and severe psychological trauma, including PTSD, anxiety, and depression. These injuries significantly impacted her cognitive functioning, relationships, and ability to care for her young children.

This case highlights the importance of:

• Proper safety protocols in home improvement projects
• Thorough assessment of potential injuries in explosive incidents
• Recognition of the long-term impacts of TBI and psychological trauma

After five years of intense litigation, we're pleased to have secured this substantial settlement for our client. It will help ensure she receives the ongoing care and support needed for her recovery.

The most serious injuries aren't always the most visible ones. Our client walked away from the explosion looking physically intact, but she was living with a traumatic brain injury and severe psychological trauma that upended her ability to parent, work, and function. Yuhl Carr spent five years building the case that proved the full scope of what she lost. If you or someone you love has suffered a TBI or psychological injury that others are dismissing, we understand how to document, fight for, and win compensation for injuries that don't show up on an X-ray.
