A woman was killed Sunday afternoon when a crane collapsed onto Elan City Lights apartment complex in Downtown Dallas when severe weather hit the Dallas/Fort Worth area. The National Weather Service reported the DFW area and surrounding cities were under a severe thunderstorm watch Sunday with heavy winds and large hail hitting certain parts of the area.
The Dallas County medical examiner’s office has identified the woman killed as 29-year-old Kiersten Symone Smith.
Six people were taken to local area hospitals with two of those people in critical condition. Two people were seriously injured and one person was already released from the hospital with minor injuries.
Officials said crews had searched and cleared all units that were accessible and found no additional victims inside. Fire rescue spokesman, Jason Evans, told The Associated Press late Sunday that residents living in apartments that are inaccessible, because of damage from the crane, were either out when the crane collapsed or among those who were hospitalized.
Dallas Fire and Rescue said in a statement earlier Sunday,"Multiple resources, to include Fire Operations, Emergency Medical Services, Urban Search and Rescue and Hazardous Materials assets, have been dispatched to the scene to help mitigate the situation.".
According to Dallas police several streets are closed due to the collapsed crane including Good Latimer at Live Oak, Good Latimer at Gaston, Live Oak at Texas, and Live Oak at Cantegral.
Dallas officials have said the property managers of Elan City Lights apartment complex will leave the building evacuated and have already set up living accommodations for the residents.

When you walk into the home of another person or into a business, you are more than likely a social guest and should be able to enjoy your time whether socializing or shopping without becoming a victim of dangerous conditions such as uneven floors. Property owners owe a duty of care to both social guests in a home as well as custome
rs in a public place, and those who enter the premises anticipate this level of care on the part of the property owner.
Falling on an uneven floor can lead to very severe injuries. It is quite easy to slip, fall, trip, stumble, or suffer another type of harm on an uneven surface. Quite frequently no one is able to see the difference in elevation of a floor surface except the owner of the property. Customers and other visitors to stores and business establishments seldom know the condition of an uneven surface that causes their injuries.
Anyone who has been injured on an uneven surface whether in a private home or public place has a legal right to recover compensation for those injuries. This type of injury falls under the Premises Liability Law. Having an Slip and Fall Lawyer who is experienced in premises liability is the best way to ensure resolution of the issue.
Property owners have a duty to make sure they make necessary repairs on a property. Part of this responsibility includes making regular inspections in order to determine whether there are any conditions that require repairs. The property owner may still be liable for any damages even if the property owner was unaware of the uneven surface that caused the injuries. This is because in some states the Premises Liability Law requires property owners to repair conditions they should have known would present a danger to visitors or customers.
In many cases a judge or jury hears cases of uneven floor accidents. It will be necessary for the judge or jury to review the facts of the case in order to determine whether the owner or manager of the property should have known a dangerous condition existed. The fact finding phase must also assess whether the property owner actually presented himself as a “reasonable prudent person” under similar circumstances. For instance, if the property owner had made previous repairs to a wooden floor that tended to become uneven, this should show the owner it is necessary to constantly maintain repairs on the surface. If a later visitor was injured on the surface, it is quite possible the property owner would be held liable for any injuries the visitor suffered.
Some of the more common causes of uneven floor accidents include the following:
Falling on an uneven surface can result in a number of severe injuries that include the following:
Injuries following an uneven floor accident can be expensive. Sometimes victims are unable to avoid an uneven surface; property owners are in the best position to assess the condition of their properties. Our firm has the experience necessary to assist an injured party in obtaining damages for a fall accident the resulted from an uneven floor or other surface.
Tragically, Texas has already seen an unusual increase in the number of drowning victims, especially among children. Every year hundreds of children drown in swimming pools throughout the nation and thousands more people (including adults) are hospitalized. Knowing the causes and ways to prevent them saves lives.
Sweltering hot summers are characteristic of the Dallas metro area, as well as most of Texas. On a sizzling summer day, a swimming pool starts looking like a great place to spend some time. Fortunately for baked Dallas metro residents, thousands of local households and apartment complexes have swimming pools. Additionally, numerous public swimming pools dot the landscape to beckon those who don’t have access to a swimming pool at home.
The abundance of swimming pools in our communities renders the heat much more tolerable – and a more dangerous as well. Swimming pool accidents happen every regularly throughout the summer months in Texas. Here are some causes and helpful tips for prevention to keep your family safe.
.
Causes of Swimming Pool Accidents
The fact that swimming pool accidents are almost always entirely preventable makes the problem all that much more frustrating. Some of the most common causes of swimming pool accidents include:
An Ounce of Prevention…
The best way to deal with a swimming pool accident, of course, is to prevent one from happening in the first place. With that in mind, below are some basic precautions you can take that should dramatically reduce the risk of a swimming pool accident.
Premises Liability
Texas premise liability law makes it easier for a person injured in an accident on someone else’s property to file a personal injury or wrongful death claim against the owner. It applies to both personal residences and commercial establishments such as public swimming pools. Although premise liability law is somewhat complex and includes many legal nuances, it generally requires a property owner to repair or warn guests of dangerous conditions on his property that he knew of or should have known of.
The Attractive Nuisance Doctrine
The attractive nuisance doctrine is a legal principle that makes it easier for even a trespasser to file a personal injury or wrongful death claim against a property owner under certain circumstances. It is normally difficult for a trespasser to file a claim against a property owner for an injury caused by a dangerous condition on the property. It becomes much easier, however, when the trespasser is a child who was injured (or killed) by a hazard that is likely to attract children (such as an unguarded swimming pool) as long as the child is likely to have lacked the ability to appreciate the danger of the hazard.
If you or your loved one suffered an injury in a swimming pool accident, or if your loved one died that way, you are going to need help determining whether you have a valid claim, calculating its value and successfully pursuing it.

If you live in Dallas (especially around Uptown), you've probably noticed the ridiculous uptick in new construction projects. While the vast majority of these projects are well-contained and do not necessarily put pedestrians in harms way, injuries and deaths caused by falling construction debris are surprisingly common. According to OSHA, being struck by an object is actually the second leading cause of all wrongful deaths on construction sites.
Falling Debris at a Construction Site
If you or a loved one has been injured due to the negligence of a construction worker, you have every right to seek compensation for your related losses. This includes any medical expenses, time away from work, as well as compensation for pain and suffering.
While the construction company will do everything they can to deflect liability and make the claims process as difficult as possible, that's exactly why personal injury law firms like ours exist. All we do is help injured victims (and the families of those wrongfully killed) hold people accountable for their negligence, and we handle these types of cases on a contingency basis.
We are here to help with the entire claims process from beginning to end, and under no circumstances will you owe us a penny in attorneys fees unless (and until) we win your case and put money in your pocket.
Not only can pedestrians be hit by falling construction debris such as concrete and rebar, but also by falling tools, equipment, or even scaffolding. These types of falling objects are not only foreseeable, they are also entirely preventable when the construction company enacts simple safety measures.
If a construction company fails to properly secure the area and/or take preventative measures such as using debris nets, toe boards, and personal protective equipment, they are simply opening themselves up to a negligence claim should someone become injured as a result.
Regardless of the circumstances, objects falling from height can be incredibly dangerous to workers and pedestrians alike. The focus of any construction safety officer should always be on preventing these objects from falling in the first place.
While passive safety measures are incredibly important, they cannot (and should not) be relied upon to prevent these types of accidents. Just like OSHA requires personal fall protection measures for workers at height, similar measures need to be taken in regard to tools and equipment.
We understand the situation you're in, as we've helped countless people just like you over the last 23 years we've been in business. Our team of personal injury attorneys are here to help, and we're happy to discuss your case either by phone or email. The consultation is free, and there's no obligation to make a decision right away.
Without an attorney on your side, the construction company (or their insurance company) will do everything in their power to delay, deflect, or deny liability. Their goal is to save their company money, and you can be certain that they have a team of attorneys actively working to discredit your claim.
Our job is to handle all communication with the defendant moving forward, to investigate your claims, prepare your case, and to advocate on your behalf for every penny you deserve. We do this for no out-of-pocket cost, as we take all personal injury and wrongful death cases on a no-win, no-fee basis.

A house fire can be a traumatic event on many fronts. You're without a place to live, your documents and possessions may have been destroyed, and in the most-tragic cases, a loved one may have been seriously injured or wrongfully killed.
House Fires, Injuries, and Wrongful Deaths
Burn injuries are often traumatic, and can lead to disfiguring scars and permanent disability. Additionally, the trauma of having survived a house fire can be emotionally harrowing and leave you with symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder that may take years of therapy to overcome. If a defective product or someone else's negligence resulted in a house fire, you have every right to seek compensation or speak with an attorney about your legal options.
Injuries and deaths caused by structure fires are often reliant on a thorough investigation and evidence. The problem for victims is that official investigators are usually only looking for the source of the fire; not determining who may have been liable.
The good news is that a personal injury or wrongful death law firm (like Rasansky Law Firm) can look into the facts of your case, investigate your claims and/or suspicions, and help your family determine their legal options moving forward. We do this at no out of pocket cost, and will never charge a penny for our services unless and until we win your case and recover compensation for your family.
According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), there are an average of 357,000 reported home structure fires (leading to around 2,500 civilian deaths) every year. On average, around seven people are killed in U.S. home fires on a daily basis.
It's estimated that roughly one-quarter of all fatal house fires originate in the bedroom, and one-quarter originate in the family room, den, or living room. While kitchen fires account for about 17% of all home fire deaths, cooking equipment was involved in about 45% of all house fires.
One out of every five home fire deaths was caused by heating equipment, and around one-third of all home structure fire deaths occurred in the winter months of December, January, and February.
If you have a working fire alarm, your chances of surviving a house fire increase exponentially.
House fires can be caused or exacerbated by a number of things, including but not limited to:
When it comes to determining liability, one must ask vital questions such as:

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning & Liability in Texas
Carbon monoxide (CO) is an odorless, colorless, and tasteless gas that is commonly produced when fuel is burnt in closed-air spaces such as homes, apartments, hotels, garages, and other enclosed areas.
This dangerous gas is known as "the silent killer" due to the fact that carbon monoxide exposure often causes victims to fall asleep or pass out, the result of which can easily lead to the victim's death. In fact, over 10,000 people are hospitalized and over 500 die from CO poisoning in America every single year.
While liability can be a complex subject when it comes to these types of cases, its important for victims to understand that personal injury attorneys exist to help victims just like you. Not only can they provide free advice to victims, they can help gather evidence, investigate the circumstances of the incident, and pursue a claim on your behalf — and all at no out of pocket cost to you.
At Rasansky Law Firm, we handle personal injury and wrongful death cases on contingency. What this means is that we only earn a fee IF and WHEN we win your case and put money in your pocket. If for some reason we are not able to recover compensation for you, you walk away without owing us a single penny.
The laws regarding carbon monoxide detectors vary widely from state to state, and even from city to city. While Texas law only requires that carbon monoxide detectors be installed in qualifying daycare centers, group daycare homes, and family homes, building codes in many cities (such as Dallas) require CO detectors to be installed in all new dwellings, as well as existing dwellings which undergo alterations, repairs or additions.
It's important to understand, though, that even if carbon monoxide detectors may not be legally required, this would not absolve the property owner, landlord, or responsible party from liability. Personal injury law is based heavily on reasonability. Is it reasonable for a landlord or building owner to install low-cost CO detectors in order to potentially save lives? You bet. Would failing to take these simple and inexpensive preventative measures count as negligence? In many cases, the answer is a resounding yes.
Some types of properties, like apartments and hotels, may owe occupants an even-higher duty of care. These property owners are required to adhere to more-stringent building codes, and often have a legal duty to check for gas leaks, install and maintain carbon monoxide detectors, and respond to the concerns of tenants in a timely manner. Failure to perform any of these duties may constitute negligence on their part, opening them up to liability if someone is injured or killed as a result.
Carbon monoxide is incredibly deadly, yet completely undetectable by humans. This is why it's so important for people to use CO detectors, as well as educate themselves on the symptoms common to CO poisoning.
Carbon monoxide can come from many sources, including furnaces, boilers, water heaters, fireplaces, gas stoves and ovens, grills, generators, automobiles, and more. The most-common warning signs of carbon monoxide poisoning are fatigue or sleepiness, confusion, headaches, migraines, chest pains, wheezing, personality changes, and flu-like symptoms.
If you become unusually fatigued or confused while inside of a building, room, or other enclosed space, it's vital that you stay alert, have everyone step outside, and contact the fire department with your suspicions. If you are suffering from confusion, headaches, or extreme fatigue, seek medical attention immediately. Do not return until you have been given the go-ahead by authorities, and if you do return, make sure that you have a reliable carbon monoxide detector.
While carbon monoxide poisoning does not discriminate, the very young and the elderly are at a particularly-high risk of serious harm due to their weakened biological architecture and nervous systems.
If you were injured or a loved one was killed by carbon monoxide poisoning, you and your family may be owed compensation for your resulting damages. This includes compensation for things such as past and future medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost income, loss of quality of life, physical disabilities, and more.
Depending on the circumstances of your case, your claim may fall under premises liability or product liability. These two areas of law can be very complex, but our Dallas lawyers are here to help you through the claims process from beginning to end.
We will investigate the circumstances of your case, file a claim on your behalf, handle communication with the insurance companies, and work toward recovering the compensation you deserve. You will never pay us a penny out of pocket to pursue your claim, as we only earn a fee if we actually win you money.

Apartment Complex Fires & Liability
It's estimated that there are over 350,000 residential fires reported on a yearly basis. This amounts to over $7 billion in damages, and tragically, thousands of serious burn injuries and wrongful deaths every year.
Structure fires at apartment complexes are usually caused by some form of human negligence, even in the case of electrical fires (e.g. faulty wiring or lack of maintenance). In order to determine who may be ultimately liable for your family's losses, as well as determine the total value of your potential claim, it's important that you seek out a free consultation with an experienced premises liability lawyer in your state.
The premises liability lawyers at Rasansky Law Firm offer free consultations 24 hours a day, by phone or email. With close to 30 years of experience handling personal injury and wrongful death matters in Dallas, Texas, our law firm has the skill set and resources (including access to top investigators) vital to proving your claim and recovering compensation from those liable.
We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning we won’t charge you anything until we win your case for you. Call us today at (214) 617-1886 to learn how we may be able to help.
When it comes to injuries and deaths caused by an apartment complex fire, the majority of claims revolve around the concept of premises liability. In general, property owners owe a duty to guests and residents to keep them safe from unreasonable harm. If it's determined that the property owner failed in this regard, they may be on the hook for any damages that occurred as a result.
Some of the most common causes of apartment fires injuries include:
Your apartment complex is likely insured for such catastrophic events, but this does not mean that the insurance company will play fair or even accept liability. Their focus is on saving the insurance company money, which is done by paying out as little as possible.
Insurance companies have a lot to lose when it comes to these kinds of claims, and you should expect them to deflect blame at every opportunity. In order to have the best chance at a successful outcome, you need someone on your side who's looking out for your best interests.
Not only will our law firm handle all communication with the insurance company moving forward, we will investigate the cause of the fire and collect evidence key to proving your case. We will keep you updated throughout the entire process, and we never charge a penny unless and until we put money in your pocket.
If you or a loved one has been injured in an apartment complex fire in Dallas — or anywhere else in Texas — give us a call right now at (214) 617-1886 to discuss your options.

Following the tragic accident on Saturday where three boy scouts were electrocuted after their sailboat came in contact with overhead power lines, many are asking how such an accident was allowed to occur in the first place.
Power Lines Over Water (Credit: Les Hassell/News-Journal)
On Saturday, August 8th, 2017, three boy scouts were killed after their sailboat's mast struck an overhead power line on Lake O’ The Pines in East Texas. Lost were Scouts Will Brannon, Heath Faucheaux, and Thomas Larry.
While news of this tragic event has spread across the nation, we hope that this attention leads to fundamental changes being made with regard to authorized clearance regulations on power lines over water, and that an effort is made to ensure that such an accident does not occur again in the future.
This is not the first time this kind of accident has occurred. In fact, a very similar event occurred on this very same lake 35 years ago. In December of 1982, attorney G. Brockett Irwin was electrocuted after his sailboat's mast struck a power line over Lake O' The Pines near Johnson Creek (less than a mile from where Saturday's accident occurred). Three other occupants of the sailboat survived.
Following Irwin's death in 1982, his widow filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and Upshur Rural Electric Cooperative, alleging that the power lines were too low and that an emergency shut-off system failed to cut power to the line once struck. While the lawsuit was eventually settled out of court, G. Brockett Irwin's brother (Tom Irwin) noted that Upshur Rural Electric Cooperative did raise the line and place "danger buoys" around the area in response, but he also wonders why they did not extend the height across the waterway all the way around the lake.
"I personally want to go further: to have all public lakes checked out by third parties to see that the Corps of Engineers, electric companies and Parks and Wildlife personnel verify that no power line endangers the lives of those that take advantage of our public waterways," Tom Irwin posted to Facebook Wednesday.
According to a 1997 regulation from the Corps of Engineers covering electric power supply lines and communication lines over reservoirs, overhead power lines are required to have a minimum vertical clearance of 52 feet where sailboats are commonly operated. Unfortunately, existing power lines were grandfathered in, and this requirement only goes into effect if existing lines are replaced or new ones are built.
This rule, which applies only to USACE development projects (e.g., a reservoir), appears to supersede the regulations put forth by the NSEC (National Electric Safety Code) and published by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
The NSEC regulations state that the bare-minimum allowable clearance above other types of waterways, which are <2,000 acres in size (and in areas suitable for sail boating), is 37 feet and 6 inches. No matter how you look at it, a power line should never be hanging low enough over water to make contact with a 26.5' tall sailboat mast.
According to Terry Hadley, director of communications for the Texas Public Utility Commission (PUC), there is no statewide agency responsible for checking height clearances on individual power lines. Apparently, this adherence falls to individual power companies or the local authority over that body of water.
In response to Saturday's accident, State Rep. Jay Dean (R-Longview) says he has spoken with other area lawmakers about the need for further legislation in order to prevent similar accidents from occurring in the future. "I think it definitely needs to be reviewed, and get the parties involved together and try to come up with a plan to resolve this so this can't happen again," said Dean.
Many people (us included) feel that the regulations should apply to ALL existing power lines over water. Allowing older lines to skirt this safety rule is ridiculously unsafe and goes against common sense. While we understand that there is a monetary cost associated with performing such upgrades, we've now seen the tragic consequences of what happens when we fail to take preventative action.
Saturday's accident is currently under investigation by the Parks & Wildlife Department. It will be interesting to see what the investigation uncovers, and whether or not the USACE, PUC, Upshur Rural Electric Cooperative, or another entity was negligent in regard to adhering to existing regulations.
Edward Rivera, a spokesman for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, issued a statement saying "The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is working closely with Texas Parks & Wildlife Department, the lead agency in the investigation, and is awaiting the results of the investigation for future action."
Rob Walker, general manager of Upshur County Rural Electric Cooperative, said "we are cooperating with the investigation and continue to assist in the process going forward," but would not comment about the height of the power lines involved in Saturday's incident.
Parks & Wildlife officials said on Monday that a full report should be expected within a week.

Natural Gas Line Explosions
Natural gas is produced all over Texas, and it is estimated that over a quarter of the country’s gas supply comes from the Lone Star State. While natural gas is an important part of our economy, it can be a dangerous substance if the pipes carrying it are compromised in even the smallest way.
Natural gas is highly flammable, and gas line accidents usually involve large explosions which happen in the blink of an eye, causing widespread carnage, wrongful deaths, and catastrophic injuries. You're likely familiar with the Atmos pipeline problems in Dallas recently, which caused an explosion that killed a 12-year-old girl.
The reality is that the vast majority (some would say all) gas explosions can be attributed to human negligence, meaning that just about every single case was entirely preventable. Had someone done what they were supposed to do in a professional capacity—with safety in mind—a gas explosion never would have happened.
We know you're likely overwhelmed right now, but understand that our Dallas lawyers are here to help. We want to help you and your family recover the compensation required to pay for your existing and future medical bills, ongoing treatment, and lost wages. We also want to make sure that changes are made as a result of this incident that serve to prevent similar events from injuring or killing others in the future.
Natural gas line explosions can occur due to a variety of factors, and the specific facts surrounding your case will play a major role in determining who was liable for the accident, what duties were owed to you, and ultimately, how your case is pursued. Gas explosions which occur on the job site may involve workers' compensation, explosions caused by equipment failure generally fall under product liability law, and some types of gas explosion accidents fall under premises liability law.
Because these types of accidents are often very complex, the best advice I can give you is to discuss the facts of your case with an attorney who offers free consultations. Our law firm is happy to review your case—as long as it occurred anywhere in Texas or Oklahoma—over the phone at (214) 617-1886 or by email using the contact form on this page. If we feel that you have an strong case, we'll offer our services on a contingency-fee basis (no-win no-fee).
Not only does a contingency-fee agreement ensure that you never risk a penny of your own money to pursue a claim, it also ensures that you get an honest assessment of the strength of your case. Since we only earn a fee on cases that we're able to win, it would make no sense for us to accept a case we didn't feel has a fair chance at trial. During your initial consultation we'll do our best to explain your legal options, answer all of your questions, and address your specific concerns.
Natural gas explosions in Texas usually lead to fatalities and serious injuries—some of which can have a lasting affect on the rest of your life. The extreme temperatures and all-engulfing flames can cause third degree burns in the matter of seconds, which often leave disfiguring scars.
Other injuries often associated with gas line explosions:
Not only do you deserve enough compensation to pay for medical treatment and future surgeries, you you deserve to be compensated for your pain and suffering, disfigurement, lost wages, diminished earning capacity, and more. Our goal is to seek compensation for every penny you're entitled to.
Natural gas explosions lawsuits in Texas aren’t easy to win. Gas companies are billion-dollar entities with armies of attorneys who are ready to shoot down any and all claims. They know how to use the law to deny, deflect and delay, and will do anything in their power to frustrate you in your journey towards compensation. Our job is to advocate on your behalf and shield you from these unscrupulous tactics.
By working with an experienced personal injury law firm in Dallas such as ours, you’re more likely to get the compensation you deserve. Don’t go it alone; call us today at (214) 617-1886 for your free and confidential consultation. We look forward to hearing from you.
