Firework Safety Tips For The Upcoming 4th of July



If you purchase legal fireworks this upcoming holiday season, Schlyer & Associates urges you to please follow these safety steps from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission:

Make sure fireworks are legal in your area before buying or using them.

Never allow young children to play with or ignite fireworks. Parents may not realize that young children suffer injuries from sparklers. Sparklers burn at temperatures of about 2,000 degrees-hot enough to melt some metals.

Always have an adult closely supervise fireworks activities if older children are allowed to handle devices.

Avoid buying fireworks that are packaged in brown paper because this is often a sign that the fireworks were made for professional displays and that they could pose a danger to consumers.

Never place any part of your body directly over a fireworks device when lighting the fuse. Back up to a safe distance immediately after lighting fireworks.

Keep a bucket of water or a garden hose handy in case of fire or other mishap.

Never try to relight or handle malfunctioning fireworks. Soak them with water and throw them away.

Never point or throw fireworks at another person.

Light fireworks one at a time, then move back quickly.


Never carry fireworks in a pocket or shoot them off in metal or glass containers.

After fireworks complete their burning, douse the spent device with plenty of water from a bucket or hose before discarding it to prevent a trash fire.

What should you do if you were injured and it was not your fault?

If you have been injured, please contact the law firm of Schlyer & Associates. The attorneys at Schlyer & Associates have experience in many types of injury and product cases and can represent you in your claim.

What types of personal injury cases do you handle?

According to the recall notice, the netting surrounding these trampolines can break, allowing children to fall through the netting and be injured.  Apparently, Sportspower has received 17 reports of the net breaking, resulting in 11 injuries including broken bones, back and neck injuries, and contusions.

The recalled trampolines were sold only at Walmart stores nationwide from February 2009 through February 2012 for about $275.

If you have one of the recalled trampolines, you should stop using the trampolines immediately and contact Sportspower at (888) 965-0565 to receive replacement black netting for the trampoline.
