Have you sustained an extensive burn because of another person’s negligence? It could be as simple as using a curling iron that malfunctions, starts a fire and burns you in the process (this has happened!). Or, maybe you’ve gotten a radiation burn in an unfortunate x-ray incident. In these distressing instances, legal counsel can make all the difference. J. Price McNamara ERISA Insurance Claim Attorney can help you seek compensation for burns.
How did you get burned?
Some of the many ways people have acquired burn injuries include, but are not limited to:
- Heat: This includes flames from a burning or car fires.
- Radiation: Could be caused from the sun, x-rays, or sun lamps.
- Chemicals: Chemical spills that get into contact with your skin.
- Electricity: Faulty electrical equipment, including curling irons, electric appliances, poor wiring, or power tools.
If you are burned in any of these manners through no fault of your own, then compensation may be sought. Clients typically seek compensation for:
- Medical Bills
- Lost income
- Emotional and Physical Pain
In the midst of dealing with insurance companies, medical bills, and your injuries, you should have someone on your side. Burn injury patients usually go through lengthy and painful skin grafts to heal. Skin grafting is a procedure which involves replacing burnt tissue with healthy tissue from another part of the patient’s body.
