Burn Injury Attorney in Reno

Burns can happen in virtually any environment and for many different reasons. From the workplace to our schools or even at home, no one is really safe from uncontrolled fires or heat. The most unfortunate thing about these incidents, besides the injuries they cause, is that some do not have to occur in the first place.

The truth is, some burn accidents are completely avoidable; they only exist because someone somewhere dropped the ball on other people’s safety. Because burns are serious injuries and often require long-term treatment, it is important that you get proper legal representation if you’re a burn injury victim. 

That way, you’ll be able to recover full compensation for your injuries and losses. If that’s the kind of legal representation you need, you’ve come to the right place.

FAQ

Morgan & Morgan

    What Are Some Common Causes of Burn Injuries?

    Burn injuries happen due to many reasons, including but not limited to the following:

    • uncontrolled fires;
    • electrical malfunctions;
    • scalding liquids;
    • chemical exposure;
    • and defective products. 

    Identifying the specific cause is crucial in determining liability and pursuing legal action. If you have a viable claim, we may be able to help you figure out who is responsible for your injuries.

    Who Can I Sue for Burn Injuries?

    Each burn injury case is unique and comes with its own set of facts. That said, depending on the circumstances, potential parties to sue for burn injuries may include property owners, manufacturers of defective products, employers (in cases of workplace accidents), government agencies, or individuals whose negligence led to the burn incident.

    What Are the Long-Term Effects of Burn Injuries?

    These injuries can have severe and lasting consequences for the victims. We’ve seen cases where victims have suffered scarring, disfigurement, chronic pain, loss of mobility, and emotional distress. Rehabilitation and ongoing medical care may also be necessary to manage these long-term effects, which is often expensive. Without proper financial compensation to cover these costs, burn injury victims and their families may find themselves in a tough financial situation.

    How Much Is a Burn Injury Case Worth?

    When determining the value of a burn injury case, we often look at various factors such as:

    • the extent of the injuries sustained; 
    • the medical expenses incurred;
    • whether the victim lost their income or earning potential;
    • whether the victim’s family members had to quit their jobs or reduce their hours to take care of their loved one; 
    • the pain and suffering the burn injury victim endured;
    • and the long-term effects of the injury.
