California Lawyers Representing Burn Victims
A serious burn injury leaves more than just physical pain. Serious damage to muscles and tissue can mean a lifetime of surgeries, medical treatments, scarring and limited mobility. In addition, the lasting emotional and psychological impact of a severe burn can be just as challenging.
At Miller Law, Inc., we understand the difficulties a person can face after a burn injury. This is why we will fight to get our clients the compensation they need for medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering. Our lawyers are committed to representing burn injury victims through aggressive representation in state and federal courts in all of California's 58 judicial counties, stretching from the Oregon border in the north to San Diego in the south.
Headquartered in central California, we represent a broad spectrum of clients who have been affected by serious burns and related injuries, including lung damage through smoke inhalation. Burns can occur in numerous different types of fire-related accidents, including:
- Explosions
- Chemical burns
- Car accidents
- Truck accidents
- Industrial accidents
- Electrical burns
- Work-Related Burns
Work-Related Burns
Electrical burns and chemical burns are almost always related to work. Although California law limits many workers to workers' compensation benefits, you may still have other remedies. When a defective product on the job is responsible for your injuries, or when someone other than your employer has caused your burn injury, it may still be possible to file a personal injury lawsuit despite workers' compensation laws. Do not give up until you talk with an attorney about your options.
How Much is my Burn Injury Case Worth?
Clients often ask us how much their case is worth. A case's value depends on many factors, and often requires consultations with highly-qualified experts to accurately assess the full extent of one's damages and injuries. It may be necessary for these experts to testify at trial about your economic situation and the home care, nursing care and equipment you may need to live the most productive life possible. Further, the value of the pain and suffering you have incurred and may incur in the future will need to be determined. Obviously, in a burn situation, pain and suffering damages may be significant.
