Long Island Attorneys--Burn Injuries

Burn injuries are caused when heat, chemicals, electricity or radiation damage the skin tissue. The severity of the injury depends on the intensity of the heat and the length of time that it is applied. If sufficiently severe, the full thickness of the skin can be destroyed, as well as tissues under it. Burns cause severe damage to blood vessels, which is what leads to swelling and blistering. They can be very painful and can result in disfigurement, scarring, amputation of affected parts or death in severe cases. Complications such as shock, infection, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, electrolyte imbalance and respiratory distress may occur.

These symptoms can be serious and treatment can often be long, costly, and seriously affect the victim's daily routine. The expenses of medical bills, loss of wages, and pain and suffering can add up to a significant loss.

If you or someone in your family has any type of burn injury due to someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation. Through a proper and thorough investigation, a good lawyer determine how the accident occurred and who was at fault. In addition they can help ensure your medical costs are documented.
