Aspects to Consider in Accidents Involving Burn Injuries
Working with investigators and other experts, our attorneys will look through all available evidence to determine the cause of your accident, how it could have been prevented and who should be held liable for your compensation. Common types of burn injures may include:
- Thermal burns, which are caused by contact with steam, hot water, flames and other sources of intense heat
- Light burns, which are caused by sunlight and other sources of ultraviolet light
- Chemical burns, which can be caused by fires or contact with acid and alkali substances
- Radiation burns, which are caused by contact with nuclear radiation
Common sources of burn injures may include auto and truck accidents, premises liability cases, construction accidents, explosions and fires. The severity of the injury is determined by the extent of tissue damage and can range from minor to severe and life-threatening. Burn injuries require very expensive medical treatment and rehabilitation that can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
