Helping Burn Injury Victims Collect Financial Compensation
The type of legal action you pursue following an injury is intricately tied to various factors, including the identity of the responsible party and the context in which the accident transpired. For instance, if you sustained an injury within the confines of your workplace, your options for seeking compensation typically revolve around filing a claim against your employer’s workers’ compensation insurance policy. This avenue provides expedited financial assistance to cover medical expenses and lost wages resulting from work-related injuries. However, it’s essential to understand that workers’ compensation laws often preclude employees from directly suing their employers for damages arising from on-the-job injuries.
Nevertheless, there exist scenarios where a third party may share liability for your work-related injury or be entirely responsible for a non-work-related accident. In such instances, you retain the right to pursue legal action against these accountable parties. At the Burnside Law Firm, we possess the expertise and dedication to thoroughly evaluate your case and identify all potential avenues for compensation, ensuring that your rights are upheld and justice is served.
When initiating a lawsuit against liable parties, our primary objective is to secure comprehensive compensation that addresses the full spectrum of your damages. This includes, but is not limited to, the following:
- Expenses not covered by workers’ compensation: This encompasses various costs and losses that may not be included in your workers’ compensation benefits, such as expenses related to long-term care, rehabilitation services, or modifications to your living environment to accommodate your injury.
- Medical expenses: We vigorously pursue compensation for all past, current and future medical expenses incurred as a result of your injury. This encompasses costs associated with hospitalization, surgeries, physician consultations, prescription medications, medical equipment, physical therapy and any other necessary treatments or interventions.
- Lost wages: Our legal team meticulously evaluates the impact of your injury on your ability to work and earn a living. We seek compensation for both the wages you have already lost due to your injury and any future earnings that may be compromised due to temporary or permanent disability.
- Pain and suffering: We recognize that the aftermath of an injury extends beyond the physical and financial realms, encompassing emotional distress, mental anguish and a diminished quality of life. As such, we advocate for compensation for the pain and suffering you have endured and may continue to experience in the future.
- Other out-of-pocket expenses: In addition to the categories above, we address any other financial burdens you may have incurred as a direct result of the accident. This could include transportation costs for medical appointments, home care expenses, or any other reasonable and necessary expenses related to your injury and recovery.
By pursuing a comprehensive approach to seeking compensation, Burnside Law Firm aims to provide you with the support and resources necessary to navigate through the challenges posed by your injury and move forward with confidence toward a brighter future.
