Compensation for Burn Injury Victims

The Philadelphia burn injury victim attorneys at MyPhillyLawyer understand the serious physical, emotional and financial consequences of burn injuries. Our law firm, Silvers, Langsam & Weitzman, P.C., has obtained substantial amounts of financial compensation for people who suffered serious burn injuries caused by the negligence of others.

We represent people who have sustained many different types of burn injuries, including:

  • Thermal burns from fire or contact with heated objects
  • Scalds from hot liquids or steam
  • Chemical burns from contact with caustic substances
  • Electrical burns from low or high-voltage power sources, including contact with power lines
  • Explosions from gas line explosions to arc-flash injuries to explosions caused by car accidents

Burn injury statistics: In the United States, approximately 2.4 million burn injuries are reported per year. Between 8,000 and 12,000 of patients with burns die and approximately one million will sustain substantial or permanent disabilities resulting from their burn injury. (Journal of Burn Care & Rehabilitation, May/June 1992).

Extremely painful and debilitating, serious burn injuries can require specialized treatment in a burn unit and multiple surgeries, including skin graft and plastic surgery. Even with the best of care, burn injury victims can be left with physical and emotional scars that last a lifetime.

Our Philadelphia burn injury victim lawyers will determine a strategy for recovering full compensation for all the damages caused by the negligent party or parties. This may include pain and suffering, current and future medical expenses related to the injury, lost wages, lost future earning potential and more.
