Burn Injuries

Burn injuries are some of the most painful and debilitating injuries.  If you have suffered a burn injury, you may find it difficult to work for an extended period of time, and can suffer permanent disfigurement, numbness, and sometimes pain.

The common types of burns are chemical (strong acids and bases), thermal (hot liquids & objects, fire), electrical (exposed wiring), and light (intense ultraviolet or visible light).  Common causes of burn injuries include:

• Workplace burns due to:
• Hot machinery
• Chemicals in the workplace
• Poorly insulated wires
• Workplace fires
• Burns at home or at a business:
• Defective space heaters, or other unsafe products and machines
• Hot liquid spills
• Exposed wiring
• Cosmetic lights or lasers used by unskilled technician
• Burns on the roadway
• Auto accident
• Motorcycle accident
• Truck accident including a spill of flammable liquids or chemicals

• Medical expenses including:
• Ambulance
• Hospital & doctor’s fees
• Medication
• Reconstructive surgery
• Lost wages and/or vocational training for a new job if your injury prevents you from returning to prior trade
