Why Do I Need A Lawyer?

A lawyer can help you investigate and resolve your burn injury claim. In many burn injury cases, it’s not clear at the beginning who was responsible for the conditions that led to the accident. A lawyer will work with experts and investigators to understand what happened then hold the responsible parties accountable.

The lawyer will also work with you and your doctor to understand and document your injuries. Once this is done, a lawyer knows how to build your claim and pursue the compensation you need. Any injury claim is built on hard work and hard facts. A lawyer will build your claim on the details and advocate for your recovery at every step.

With years of experience representing burn injury victims, we know what goes into building a compelling and persuasive claim for your recovery. We represent clients who have suffered all types of burn injuries including:

• Chemical burns: These types of burns result from skin exposure to harsh and caustic chemicals. They’re frequently used in industrial settings and even with appropriate safety gear when victims are exposed; they may end up harmed.
• Electrical Burns: Electrical burns occur when a victim is exposed to live power lines and wiring. This frequently happens in construction and remodeling settings where parties fail to communicate about the status of power lines and wires. The result is often severe injuries that can leave a victim in pain for the long-term.
• Thermal burns: Thermal burns are the most common type of burn resulting from exposure to high heat – whether from fire or hot surfaces. Blistering and tissue damage are common, requiring skin grafts and other reconstructive surgery.

Any type of burn can leave victims struggling. Even today, medical treatment can only do so much for burn injury victims. Scarring, infection, disfigurement, and many other injuries can occur and remain with a victim for the rest of their life.

What Compensation May Be Available?

• Medical treatment costs: Burn injuries may require complicated and painful surgeries that can continue for weeks or months. Treatment is expensive, and even if your injuries begin to heal, there may be tremendous costs involved with physical therapy and recovery. A claim for burn injuries may include the cost of medical treatment following the accident and extending into the future over the course of treatment.
• Lost wages and income: Burn injuries can leave you out of work for a long time. A burn injury claim may include damages for the work you’ve missed and for the income you may miss out on in the future due to your injuries.
• Pain and suffering: Burn injuries can cause victims tremendous physical and emotional pain. They can diminish your quality of life and leave victims suffering for years. A claim for burn injuries can include damages for the physical and emotional pain that a burn victim suffers.

These and other damages may be available in your case. If you have questions, a lawyer can review your case and help you understand your options.

Fire Protection Measures

A property manager needs to establish basic fire safety devices around their building, as well as reduce the chance that a fire will cause a structural collapse. Without offering significant safety measures for those inside the building, the chances of reaching a safe distance before the fire worsens become increasingly slim. The following measures are important in providing protection from fires:

• Fire alarms
• Sprinkler systems
• Fire-resistant blankets
• Fire-resistant roofing to prevent collapse
• Unobstructed emergency exits

It is also important that the property manager provides access to a fire hydrant and a pathway for firefighters to reach the building in the case of a fire. Putting up unnecessary obstacles that hinder emergency responders can result in more severe injuries and potentially increased fatalities. Also, emergency exits should be clearly marked and easily accessible, as panicked patrons may rush towards these doors.
