Burn injuries can be some of the most painful, horrific and disfiguring injuries possibly suffered.
Not only is the skin be affected, but in severe burns cases the actual muscles, tendons, bones, nerves and organs can also be devastated. Complications such as shock, infection, respiratory distress and loss of bodily functions may accompany burn injuries. Severe scarring, amputation and numerous surgeries may also follow the devastating burn injuries.
The type of full monetary recovery that we seek for our burn victim clients can include:
- Medical expenses: past, present and future.
- Loss of earnings: past present and future.
- Emotional distress: past, present and future.
- Pain and suffering: past, present and future.
- Property damage, and loss of use.
Also, punitive damages, meant to punish the party at fault, may be sought, depending on the circumstances.
If the burn victim is married, the spouse may have a claim for loss of consortium, that is, loss of love, companionship, comfort, care, assistance, protection, affection, society, moral support and sexual relations (or the ability to have children).

When we take a case, we take it to win.
Very often there is insurance covering negligence and it has been said that without an attorney fighting for you insurance companies will do their best to take advantage of you. They may try to fight over whose fault the incident is, say your medical bills are outrageous and not recoverable, deny loss of earnings and try not to give money for pain and suffering and diminishment of your life style. Let’s face it, the insurance companies are not in the business of giving away money. They have trained claims adjusters and attorneys trying to pay nothing, or as little as possible.
