Q: Fire broke out in my apartment caused by an electrical wire that was poorly installed. Will you have to pay for repairs?
Fire started Sunday November 3 2019 at 4:10am. Fire was caused by electrial wire of a fan that was poorly installed and properly working correctly.
A:
You should not have to pay for anything if you had nothing to do with the installation of the wire. You posted this under personal injury. If that means you sustained injury and incurred medical expenses as a result of the fire, you could have certain rights, which you could discuss with a North Carolina injury attorney. Most offer free initial consults. Good luck
