The Effect of Burn Injuries

The severity of a burn injury depends on how much tissue was damaged. First degree burns are relatively minor and rarely have long-lasting effects on an individual. Second degree and third degree burns, however, can destroy nerve function and leave permanent scars. Second or third degree burns across a large percentage of the body may even lead to death.

Many burn injuries require extensive and expensive medical treatment, including anti-biotic regimens, skin-grafts, and rehabilitation. In some cases, victims may even be required to undergo several sessions of plastic surgery.

Seeking Full and Fair Compensation for Burn Injury Victims

At Wills & Adams, LLP, we consult with medical and financial experts to help determine the immediate and long-term costs of recovery. We then use their testimony and our extensive personal injury experience to prepare and present a persuasive case. While no amount of money can return your life to the way it was before the accident, it can still help offset some of the future costs and provide you with a much-needed sense of justice.
