What to Ask Your Burn Injury Attorney after a chemical or heat-related incident

Our burn injury FAQ explains workplace accidents, lawsuits, and when to sue over a burn injury with trusted guidance from an experienced burn injury law firm.

What should I do immediately after experiencing a serious burn?

Get medical attention right away. Even if the burn doesn’t look too bad, you have to have it treated. Then, once you’re safe and have been seen by a doctor, document everything you can. Take photos, write down what happened, and keep all your medical records close. Don’t make any statements or sign any insurance paperwork before you’ve talked to Alexander Shunnarah Trial Attorneys. We’ll lay out your legal options and help you file a claim, making sure you aren’t pushed into an unfair settlement.

How long do I have to file a claim after a burn accident?

It depends on where the accident happened, but in most states, the statute of limitations (or deadline to file) is one to three years from the day you were hurt. Our attorneys will make sure all documents are filed appropriately and on time.

Can I sue my employer if I suffered a burn injury at work?

It can be complicated, but depending on your situation, yes. If your employer was seriously negligent or if a third party was involved, you might have a case. We’ve helped plenty of folks navigate these murky waters and get the compensation they deserve, even when their employer tried to brush it off.

What compensation can I receive from a burn injury lawsuit?

Damages may include medical bills (past and future), lost wages, pain and suffering, and sometimes even punitive damages if the other party was really out of line. Burns can impact your life in ways you might not even realize yet, so our attorneys fight to make sure you’re covered for the long haul. We’ve seen insurance companies try to lowball burn victims, but we don’t let them get away with it.

How do attorneys prove negligence in burn-related personal injury cases?

Our attorneys dig into every detail (faulty wiring, ignored safety regulations, etc.) to figure out who’s responsible. We work with investigators who can break down exactly what went wrong and why it shouldn’t have happened. Sometimes it’s like putting together a puzzle, but when we lay out all of the evidence, it’s easy to see who’s at fault.

Are chemical or electrical burns treated differently in legal claims?

Legally speaking, the basics are similar, but these cases often have more complex liability issues. With chemical burns, we might be looking at product manufacturers or employers who didn’t provide proper safety gear. Electrical burns could involve utility companies or contractors who cut corners. Our attorneys have handled all types of burn injury claims and know how to tackle the challenges each one brings.

How does a burn injury attorney handle cases involving children or elderly victims?

Great question. These cases hit hard emotionally, and usually involve long-term care needs. Our attorneys work closely with medical professionals to fully understand how the injury will affect the victim’s future. For kids, we’re looking at potential impacts on growth and development. For older folks, we consider how the burn affects their overall health and independence. It’s about painting a complete picture of the harm done and fighting for every bit of help needed.

Will my settlement cover long-term medical care and scarring?

Our attorneys aren’t just looking at today’s medical bills; we’re thinking years down the road. Burn injuries often need ongoing treatment, and scarring can mean multiple surgeries. The team at Alexander Shunnarah Trial Attorneys will factor all of that in, including the emotional toll of living with visible scars. Our goal is to make sure you’re not left holding the bag for future expenses you didn’t ask for.
