How Maryland law treats explosion injuries

Statutory research reviewed 2026-08-14. Not legal advice.

Shared fault
Maryland is one of the last states applying pure contributory negligence: any fault attributable to the injured person, even a small share, bars recovery completely.
Coleman v. Soccer Ass'n of Columbia, 432 Md. 679 (2013)
Damage caps
Maryland caps non-economic damages in ordinary injury cases, not just malpractice. The cap rises by $15,000 every October 1 and stands at $965,000 for claims arising between October 1, 2025 and September 30, 2026.
Md. Code, Cts. & Jud. Proc. § 11-108
Claims against government
A claim against a Maryland local government must be filed within one year of the injury.
Md. Code, Cts. & Jud. Proc. § 5-304

Directory coverage for Maryland is expanding

We don’t have listings here yet — coverage grows state by state rather than all at once. Burn and fire cases are routinely handled across state lines, so attorneys listed elsewhere in the region may still be able to help.
