    Many kinds of injuries can be difficult for a victim of a personal injury accident, a slip and fall accident, a workplace accident, or any other circumstance involving someone else’s negligence.

    But as burn injury lawyers in Waltham can tell you, a burn injury can have devastating and far-reaching consequences. Even when someone gets immediate medical attention for a burn injury, they may deal with disfigurement and scars for many years to come.

    The lawyers at Morgan & Morgan recognize how victims suffer, not just in the immediate aftermath of receiving a burn injury and getting it diagnosed, but in treating this overall circumstance. Our burn injury lawyers in Waltham are here to protect your legal rights and to help you to recover compensation in this situation. The support of an experienced and knowledgeable lawyer can be extremely helpful in guiding you through this process. Led by the attorneys at Morgan & Morgan, you may be able to gather evidence associated with your burn injury, to identify the liable parties who are responsible for your injuries, and to chart a clear path forward.

    We know that it can seem overwhelming when burn injuries cause damage to your skin and underlying tissues, whether it was caused by hot liquids, flame, heat, contact with chemicals, electricity, or steam. People who have second or third-degree burns, signs of infection after a burn injury, burns caused by electricity or chemicals, or burns to sensitive areas of the body will likely require extensive medical treatment. You may need to visit a burn unit and a specialized burn injury doctor to help. With so much at stake, it is vital that you get medical treatment first and support from an experienced lawyer soon after.

    If you’re deciding your next steps forward after a burn injury, contact Morgan & Morgan today for a free, no-obligation case evaluation to get started.

    Common Causes of Burn Injuries in Waltham

    As burn injury lawyers in Waltham can tell you, there are several common circumstances that can lead to burn injuries. Some of the most common causes of burn injuries include:

    Premises liability cases: Due to historic businesses and homes located throughout the area, owners and managers of these buildings have a responsibility for regularly inspecting that property and identifying hazards that can cause injuries to guests, including those caused by faulty electrical systems or the risk of fire. Lack of fire exits and smoke detectors can also contribute to the risks of a serious burn injury.

    Motor vehicle accidents: Speeding, distracted, or impaired drivers regularly operating throughout the city's roadways can cause critical accidents. When any portion of the vehicle catches on fire this can lead to critical injuries. Motorcycle riders are particularly at risk for devastating burn injuries. When a gas tank ruptures during a collision, this can cause caustic and flammable gasoline to leak from the vehicle, making contact with ignition sources or the rider's skin.

    Electricity or chemical-related burns: Another person's negligence may contribute to a burn injury for you at work or at home. Electrical burns can often cause substantial damage to internal organs because the electrical current enters one location in the body and exits another. Chemical burns can also deepen even after the skin has been cleaned. Getting proper attention from experienced burn injury lawyers in Waltham is crucial for being able to build a compelling case.
