How do You Know if You Have a Legal Claim After a Burn Injury?
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), over one million people require medical care for burns every year.
However, not all accidents that result in burns allow you to secure compensation. Generally, you only receive coverage for your expenses if someone else caused your injuries through an act of negligence.
Individuals demonstrate negligence if they:
- Owe you a duty of care
- Violate that duty of care
- Directly cause your accident and injuries
Note that to secure damages after an accident, you must sustain physical injuries or financial losses to have a claim. If you feel unsure if you have a claim, we offer you a free and confidential case review to discuss your options before you move forward.
Additionally, we don’t charge our clients legal fees until we resolve their claims.

Will Your Burn Injury Case Cover Future Medical Care?
Your lawyer may secure damages to cover your current and future healthcare expenses after a burn injury. However, settlements do not automatically cover these costs. In fact, insurance agents may offer you a settlement that fails to cover all your losses.
The professionals recommend that you allow a lawyer to review any settlement offer before you sign the paperwork. Once you agree to the insurance company’s terms, it’s much more challenging to seek additional compensation for your losses.
