Burn Injury
Burn Injury Attorneys Providing Trusted Legal Counsel for Accident Victims Throughout St. Louis County, St. Charles County and Lincoln County
We seek recovery for your serious or catastrophic accidental burn injury
The medical expenses associated with serious burns are sometimes quite large, as burns often require extensive and long-term medical treatment to improve the victim’s quality of life. You may need to go through multiple surgeries, painful skin grafts or reconstructive surgery to recover from a burn accident. If you have received a burn as a result of a faulty product, workplace negligence or someone else’s negligence, the at-fault party should be held responsible for your medical expenses and other damages. To file a legal claim and seek the compensation you are entitled to, contact the Law Office of Kenneth P. Carp today. Our attorneys guide you through the process every step of the way.
Be aware of some of most common causes of at-fault burn injuries, which include:
· Hot water
· Fires
· Electrical accidents
· Chemical burns
· Propane or gas explosions
· Oil rig or truck explosions
· Car accidents
Our aggressive litigators work hard to build your burn injury lawsuit
We work to seek the maximum possible compensation for all your injuries and associated expenses rather than simply settling for the first offer made by the at-fault party. Burn injuries, especially serious or catastrophic burn injuries often result in expenses from a number of different types of procedures as well as other medical problems that arise from the injury.
Medical procedures – A skilled lawyer seeks compensation not just for the emergency medical procedures immediately following the accident, but also for rehabilitation and other treatments like cosmetic surgery that a patient may opt for down the line to alleviate scarring and to improve quality of life.
Medical problems arising from the burn – Burn injuries often result in other medical problems such as infection, limited mobility or disfigurement from permanent scarring. These issues are not only extremely painful but have a strong negative effect on quality of life.
Lost wages – Extensive and long-term surgeries often result in lost earnings from the inability to work while receiving medical treatment or from a disability gained from the burn.
Pain and suffering – The effects of burn injuries are physically painful as well as emotionally taxing, especially when a victim suffers from disfigurement as a result of the accident.
When we represent you, we thoroughly review your case to assess both your current and future medical needs and we go to trial when necessary to seek the maximum recovery possible for your burn accident.
