Ocala Burn Injuries

In an instant, a fire can do more damage than you ever thought possible. It can damage your belongings, it can damage your home, and it can damage you and your family.

  • What Burn Claims Do We Handle?

    Our attorneys have taken on a large variety of burn injury cases. Among the types of burn injuries we have handled include:

    • Electrical fires;
    • Motor vehicle accident fires;
    • Defective product fires;
    • Scalding water and pipes;
    • Locked fire exits; and
    • Fires in recreational areas (hotels, clubs, restaurants, stores, malls, etc.)
  • Home & Work Fires

    Two of the most common places where burn injuries take place are a person’s home and their workplace.

    Whether it’s a house you own or a home or apartment that you rent, it’s possible to be at risk of fires in your own place of residence without you being at fault. In the event that you are renting your home, your landlord may be held responsible for a fire breaking out and injuring their tenant.

    Landlords have a strict responsibility to keep their residences safe for tenants; Ocala’s Code of Ordinances has specific definitions of what constitutes a dangerous building, and buildings that don’t follow standard fire prevention codes are particularly dangerous. A fire breaking out because your home was not equipped with a smoke detector, or because of faulty wiring, can do lasting damage. If we, in our investigation, determine that a landlord’s negligence caused the fire, it’s possible you could have a lawsuit against them.

    Injuries caused by a fire on-the-job may allow you to file a workers’ compensation claim. If you feel as if your workers’ compensation is not enough for the damage you’ve received from your burn, your attorney can potentially negotiate with your employer’s insurance for more. Depending on your injury, you may also be able to file a third-party lawsuit (for example, a fire caused by a defective product exploding might allow you to file a lawsuit against the product manufacturer).

  • How Does a Burn Injury Attorney Help

    At Morgan & Morgan, our burn injury attorneys perform thorough investigations to determine whether or not you have a valid case, and if you do, that investigation helps us build your case into one we can present to a judge or jury. Included in this process is:

    • Gathering relevant evidence, such as fire department reports, photographs of the scene of the accident, and police reports;
    • Interviewing eyewitnesses;
    • Reviewing medical records and reports;
    • Work with medical experts to evaluate the cost of your injury and of any potential future medical expenses; and
    • Work with safety inspectors and electricians to more firmly establish the cause of your injury.

    With all of this (and in some cases more), we’re able to expertly craft a case to present that shows how our client was hurt by someone else’s negligence, and how they are owed compensation as a result.
