Commonly Reported Causes of Negligence-Based Burn Injuries
According to Johns Hopkins Medicine research, burns are classified as first-degree (minor), second-degree (moderate), or third-degree (severe). The degree of your burn injury will determine its impact on your physical appearance and abilities. The cause of your injuries will determine your right to recover damages from the negligent party.
Understanding and documenting the cause of your injuries is the key to obtaining the financial compensation you are entitled to receive. Negligence-based accidents that could entitle you to compensation include:
- Car, truck, or bus accidents
- Exposure to electricity
- Exposure to chemicals
- Accidental or intentional fires
Our Uniondale burn injury attorneys will investigate your accident and prove the at-fault party’s negligence.
We Carefully Document Your Case and Your Right to Recover Damages
Because our team was not present at your accident, we rely on the evidence in your case to tell us what happened. So do the representatives for the at-fault party. To ensure the accident and its causes and contributing factors are accurately portrayed, we collect the following types of evidence:
- Accident and incident reports
- Medical records and prognosis
- Lay and expert witness statements
- Photos and video footage
- Accident reconstruction reports
Your evidence file will prove the following legal elements of negligence:
- Duty of care
- Breach of duty
- Causation
- Damages
We also collect evidence that proves the accident’s costs, including medical bills, proof of income, and property repair and replacement costs. Our law firm does not tax you or your family with this daunting task. Instead, we handle this and all other aspects of your case for you while you focus on getting better.
