Burn Injury Lawyers
Attorneys Helping Burn Injury Victims in Missouri and Kansas
Pain • Disfigurement • Multiple Surgeries • Depression • Death
Burn injuries happen in a variety of ways — natural gas and propane explosions, electrical burns, fires, scalding, chemical burns. Depending upon the cause of your burn injury, any of a number of different parties may have been responsible. For example:
- If smoke detectors failed in an apartment fire, the landlord may be responsible — but so might an electrician who improperly installed the smoke detectors or a company that manufactured faulty detectors.
- If an electrician on a construction site failed to properly safeguard live electrical wires and you, a subcontractor, were electrocuted, you may have a third-party personal injury claim in addition to your worker's comp claim.
- A car fire could be the result of a negligent driver causing a car accident, or it could be due to a defect in the gas line or the design of the car.
