According to the American Burn Association, each year in the United States, 1.1 million burn injuries require medical attention. A burn is defined as tissue damage caused by a variety of agents, such as heat or chemicals. Most common burns are caused by:

• Automobile Accidents
• Gas and other Flammable Liquid Fuel Explosions
• Scalding/ Hot Water
• Electrical Accidents
• Industrial Accidents
• Gasoline Spills
• Building Fires
• Defective Candles
• Lighters & Matches

Seriously burned patients often need focused and expert care to deal with the long-term physical and psychological affects of their injuries. Our firm understands that your goals or those of a loved one after going through such trauma are to get your medical bills paid and covered, make sure you do not suffer financially through any lost wages, and make sure your insurance company will pay for future treatment relating to your injury.

This further treatment is central to successful litigation and the need to have a highly qualified professional handle your case. While the injuries may be extensive in the wake of the fire and its harms, the need for a settlement which will cover medical expenses down the road is crucial. Where some attorneys fail to look into and expose any conditional expenses the responsible parties should be held liable for, our firm will work to explore each and every facet of your care as you get older to insure that any settlement is adequate and does not run out quickly.

Our experienced attorneys will discuss your situation and go over the options available to you, as well as work with insurance companies and other parties involved in your case to make sure all your needs are handled quickly and appropriately. Further, the medical specialists we use to help develop your case have helped many of our clients get settlements that went beyond their expectations. Because of our experience in a variety of legal cases, our team of experts are diverse and up to the task of making sure every detail is figured out and your case leads to the resolution you deserve.
