Few injuries are as excruciating or as devastating as burn injuries. Whether caused by fire, chemicals, electricity, or scalding liquids, these injuries often result in permanent scarring, disfigurement, and immense psychological trauma. At Fischer Redavid PLLC, we represent individuals who have suffered serious burn injuries due to negligence—and we fight to ensure they receive the compensation and care they deserve.
Burn injury cases are uniquely complex. They involve not only physical recovery but also long-term medical treatments, reconstructive surgeries, and emotional healing. Our firm understands the lasting impact these injuries have, and we are committed to helping victims and their families rebuild their lives.
Understanding the Severity of Burn Injuries
Burns are classified by degrees based on the depth and extent of the damage:
- First-degree burns affect only the outer layer of skin and usually heal without medical intervention.
- Second-degree burns penetrate deeper, often causing blisters, intense pain, and risk of infection.
- Third-degree burns destroy multiple layers of tissue and may affect nerves, muscles, and even bones—often requiring skin grafts and intensive treatment.
In severe cases, burns can also lead to:
- Inhalation injuries from smoke or toxic fumes
- Sepsis and other life-threatening infections
- Permanent loss of function in affected limbs
- Chronic pain and psychological trauma, including PTSD
At Fischer Redavid PLLC, we work with burn specialists, plastic surgeons, and mental health professionals to understand and convey the full scope of your injury.
How Burn Injuries Happen — And Who’s Responsible
Burn injuries often result from avoidable hazards and negligence. Some of the most common causes we encounter include:
- Workplace accidents involving chemicals, explosions, or hot surfaces
- Defective products such as electronics, heating equipment, or lithium-ion batteries
- Apartment and building fires caused by faulty wiring or lack of safety measures
- Motor vehicle collisions resulting in fuel-related burns
- Restaurant or kitchen accidents involving scalding liquids or unsafe conditions
Property owners, employers, landlords, product manufacturers, and other negligent parties can all be held legally responsible. We dig deep to uncover every cause and hold all liable parties accountable.
The Long-Term Consequences of a Burn Injury
Beyond the immediate trauma, burn injuries can create lifelong challenges. Victims may undergo:
- Multiple reconstructive surgeries
- Skin grafting procedures
- Physical therapy and rehabilitation
- Psychiatric care for depression and anxiety
- Employment limitations due to loss of mobility or function
Scars and disfigurement can also cause immense emotional pain, impacting self-esteem, social relationships, and overall quality of life. These are not temporary injuries—they are lifelong conditions that deserve lifelong compensation.
