How to Win a Settlement in a Burn Injury Case

When you suffer a burn in some sort of accident, the process of trying to win a financial judgment starts with proving that another party behaved in a negligent manner, leading to your injuries. Sometimes, the insurance company representing the responsible party will admit fault on the part of its client. This means you and your burn injury lawyer can focus on obtaining compensation for your medical bills, pain, and suffering.

However, if the insurer disputes how the accident occurred and exactly who is at fault, the situation changes. You and your burn injury attorney will need to first prove which party created the negligent situation. Once you can show who caused your injuries, then you can focus on trying to receive a fair settlement offer from that entity and its liability insurance company.

Proving Liability in a Burn Injury Case

To show that a particular party should be held liable for your burns, you need to show that four different elements occurred, including:

  • Duty of care, where you must prove that the liable party owed you a duty of care. They should have maintained conditions that would have protected you from the possibility of harm, such as if your employer should have provided a safer work environment for you by eliminating the possibility of out-of-control fires.
  • Violation of duty of care, where you and your lawyer must show that the negligent party did not keep you safe because of a mistake it made.
  • Cause of injuries, where you need to show that you suffered injuries directly because of the accident, not because of some other reason.
  • Suffered damages, where you must show that you had some sort of financial loss related to your injuries, including items like medical care costs, prescription costs, and lost wages.

To prove that these elements exist in your case, our skilled Boise burn injury lawyer will investigate how you suffered your injuries. This can involve studying police reports, interviewing witnesses, and reviewing any video of the scene. Should we need to hire accident recreation experts to show how the accident occurred, we will take this step. Find out how our burn injury attorney can build your case.

Common Questions That Clients Ask Our Boise Burn Injury Lawyer

Here are some common questions victims of burns have before they file a personal injury claim.

How much is a typical burn injury settlement amount?

A burn injury settlement really depends on the severity of the burns and the level of negligence of the party at fault for your injuries. Some cases may settle for several thousands of dollars, while others can settle for hundreds of thousands of dollars or more.

What kinds of accidents can lead to burn injury settlements?

Workplace accidents and car accidents are among the most common situations that lead to the filing of burn injury claims. A malfunctioning product or an unsafe installation of a gas line or a gas cooking appliance could lead to a burn injury case, too.

Can you file a claim for first degree burns?

Because first degree burns are the least serious types of burns, it can be tougher to win a settlement for this type of burn injury, but it is not impossible. The circumstances in the accident will play a role in whether a case is possible.

Can you file a lawsuit for chemical burns?

Absolutely. A burn injury claim can involve any kind of skin burn. A burn may occur because of a fire or because someone on a jobsite or at your home made an error that exposed your skin to dangerous chemicals.

How long do I have to file a claim in my burn accident?

According to Idaho state law, victims have a two-year statute of limitations to start the process of filing a personal injury claim. Our burn injury lawyers will help your case stay on track, meeting all filing deadlines.

“Very professional, and treated me as an equal.”

Just wanted to say thank you to Jed and his team at Strong Law. Not only was I happy with the outcome, but the entire process as a whole. I would definitely recommend this firm to anyone. Thanks again.

“Unbelievable work!”

I had a claim involving my own insurance company. I tried to negotiate with them, and they completely denied my claim – two times. I then hired Strong Law, and the change was instant. The insurance company immediately began negotiating, and Jed was able to secure an unbelievably good settlement. I will never again attempt to take-on an insurance company without Strong Law in my corner. Thank you!”

Rehabilitating from Burn Injuries

Although burn injuries themselves can involve intense pain, rehabilitating from them can involve significant pain too, according to Mayo Clinic. Some of the treatments you may have to undergo after suffering a serious burn injury include:

  • Cleaning the wound, where wounds require washing and cleaning to remove any debris and to attempt to prevent the formation of dangerous infections.
  • Dressing the wound, where doctors and nurses will bandage the damaged skin, creating pain during application and removal of the dressings.
  • Skin grafts, where doctors may perform surgery, repositioning healthy skin from other areas of your body to replace damaged skin from the burns.
  • Plastic surgery, where doctors may need to perform reconstructive surgery on damaged parts of the victim’s body, attempting to reduce the effects of scarring from the burns and to return freedom of movement to joints affected.
  • Physical therapy, where therapists will help victims attempt to regain their full range of motion in limbs where burns occurred, which can include stretching the healing skin and improving the performance of joints with scarring.
  • Help with feeding and breathing, where people with burns inside the throat from inhaling smoke may need tubes inserted in the throat, which can cause pain and discomfort.

It is common for people who suffer burn injuries to need large amounts of medication to manage the pain, both from the wounds and from physical therapy. Having such a high level of pain in this type of accident allows you and our burn injury attorney to seek a larger pain and suffering settlement than with some other kinds of cases.

Our Boise Burn Injury Attorney Understands How Frustrating a Burn Injury Can Be

You may be doing your job like any other day at the worksite. Suddenly, a piece of equipment fails, creating a fire or a chemical spill out of nowhere. Just like that, your world has changed, potentially forever, as you now face a long hospital stay, potential disfigurement, and ongoing pain.

You did not do anything wrong, yet you are suffering. This can lead to feelings of helplessness, especially if the insurance company for the negligent party disputes your side of the story. Perhaps the insurer is arguing that your injuries are not as serious as you claim.

If the insurance company for the negligent party refuses to come to a fair settlement amount for your burn injury, we will fight for your right to receive the compensation you deserve. We will remain on your side, even if that requires taking the case to court. For a free review of your case, contact our Boise burn injury lawyer at Strong Law at 206-737-2997 as soon as possible.

Our Burn Injury Lawyers Will Work Tirelessly on Your Behalf

We Work on a Contingency Fee Basis

Some burn injury cases represent extremely complex situations that will require a lot of time on the part of your Boise burn injury attorney. This causes some potential clients to worry about how they will be able to afford hiring a qualified attorney.

Understand that in burn injury cases, our law firm does not charge any fees ahead of time. Instead, our fees for representing you will be a percentage of the final settlement in the case. If we are unable to obtain a financial settlement for you, we do not receive any payment.

We also will not force you to accept a quick settlement. Settling fast may not be in your best interest, especially if your injuries are slow to heal and your pain is lingering. We do not want to settle your burn injury case until doctors diagnose your full health outlook. You will have the final call on whether to accept a negotiated settlement.

What Is the Value of My Case?

You may have medical bills, lost income, costs associated with pain and suffering, among other possible damages. To learn the possible value of your case, contact the team at Strong Law. In a free case evaluation, we’ll let you know how much your case may be worth.

What Are Your Hours?

Strong Law is open five days a week between 9am and 5pm. In addition, we offer after hours return calls, weekend calls, and online chat.

What Kinds Of Cases Are Personal Injury?

Call us to know for sure, but a good rule of thumb is when an “accident” that happened to you because of the acts of or misdeeds of another party. Examples are: Auto accidents; motorcycle accidents; semi-truck accidents; wrongful death; medical malpractice; slip, trip and fall; boating accidents, faulty equipment, nursing home abuse; and many others.

Will I Be Charged To Consult Or Talk With You?

No, not ever. Strong Law is a contingency personal injury firm offering specialized experience along with access when you need it. Our goal is to gain the best settlement and provide comfort in the process, so easy access to us is part of our best practices.

What Does Contingency Mean?

Contingency in a legal matter means an expense to the client based on the outcome of a future event or circumstance which is possible but cannot be predicted with certainty. Said another way, Strong Law gets paid only if your case settles.

Can You Give Me An Assessment Of My Case?

Absolutely. While we cannot guarantee anything, nor do we imply a settlement, our willingness to take your case (and do it on contingency) is our voice that we feel your case has strong merit. After speaking with you, we can provide a merit assessment over the phone. However, we caution that accepting your case does not promise anything, your outcome is reflected in the law firm you choose.

What Should I Do If I’m Having Problems, Like Their Insurance Company Is Calling Me?

Always secure an attorney first. If you sign up with Strong Law now, you can advise their insurance company that you have representation and give them our name and contact information. From that time forward, they should not be contacting you again; it’s the law. If you do not sign with an attorney, like Strong Law, you will need to speak with them and represent yourself to resolve your injury. We strongly urge against this; insurance companies are skilled at ensuring their best interests over yours.

What Are Common Reasons For Insurance Injury Denials?

Make sure you receive medical treatment as soon as possible after an accident, otherwise insurance may argue your pain is from an unrelated incident.Insurance companies will be going out of their way to find some proof that the accident was your fault. Don’t be intimidated.If you have preexisting medical conditions that make you more likely to suffer an injury, it is not uncommon for insurance agencies to deny claims based on this.

How Long Does A Case Take To Settle?

It depends on many factors like medical care, future needs, evidence, proof of liability, and many others. Some cases take months while others can last a couple years. Ultimately, our goal is to represent you and what is going to be best for you in the long run.

Why Can Cases Last Years?

Because the law dictates it. There are many layers to make sure the insurance companies treat you with optimal care. For example, there will be time spent for medical treatments you might need. There is time to gather the needed medical reports and discover any long term impacts this injury will have on your life today and into the future. There is time for the other side to review our demands, research, and respond as well. It can feel like a long time, but we follow the law and strategize for the best benefit to you. We are with you the whole time.
