Burn injuries can be obtained from a multitude of things, including chemicals, fires, products and electricity. Our firm handles burn injury cases differently, depending on whether the injury was sustained at work or not. If the burn was sustained while working, we will handle the case as a workers' compensation claim. If the injury was sustained as a result of the negligence of others, and was not work-related, we will handle it as a personal injury claim.
Casey W. Stevens Law: Alpharetta Personal Injury and Car Accident Lawyers has handled several burn injury cases over the many years we have been in business. Substantial burn injuries can involve multiple skin grafts, reconstructive surgery, disfigurement, and intense pain and suffering. Most burn injuries leave people disabled for months if not permanently. At Casey W. Stevens Law: Alpharetta Personal Injury and Car Accident Lawyers, our lawyers are dedicated to recovering financial compensation for burn victims. We work with accident investigators to identify the cause of a fire or explosion in order to expose negligence on the part of employers, manufacturers, drivers or property owners. When necessary, we create day-in-the-life videos in order to explain to jurors just how our client's life has been impacted by his or her burn injuries.
Compensation can be obtained for lost wages, pain and suffering, disfigurement, loss of future income and loss of enjoyment of life.
Case Study: We had a young adult female come to us because she had a chemical burn on her leg from a product that was used on finger nails. The product label did not provide a warning that if it were to come into contact with nylon clothing, it would melt the clothing to the skin of the user. When our client spilled the chemical on to her nylon dress, the dress melted to her skin, leaving her with a scar across her lower thigh. Because our client made money modeling, we were able to recover compensation for her that included loss of future income.
Fires and explosions caused by safety violations can create additional liability for those who allow them to happen. That's why we are particularly diligent in investigating fires that occur in the workplace, hotels, restaurants, or retail stores. Since most businesses are required to adhere to fire codes and safety regulations, violations that lead to fires may involve reckless endangerment or a depraved indifference to the safety of others. While these may result in criminal charges, they may lead to punitive damages when the violations are particularly egregious. Burn injuries that happen in commercial business spaces are also likely to result in additional compensation. Commercial spaces are subject to additional regulations that residential spaces may not be. In most cases they are required to have fire walls, sprinkler systems, smoke alarms and chemical wash-off areas when chemicals are present. They are also required to have functioning fire extinguishers and unlocked emergency exits.
