A serious burn injury leaves more than just physical pain. Serious damage to skin, muscle and other tissues can mean a lifetime of surgeries, medical treatment, scarring and limited mobility. In addition, the lasting emotional and psychological impact of a severe burn can be just as challenging.

At Miller Law, Inc. we understand the difficulties a person can face after a burn injury. This is why we will fight to get our clients for compensation a need for medical expenses, lost income and pain and suffering. Our lawyers are committed to representing burn injury victims through aggressive representation in state and federal courts and all of California's 58 judicial counties, stretching from the Oregon border in the north to San Diego in the south.

Headquartered in Central California, we represent a broad spectrum of clients who have been affected by serious burns and related injuries, including lung damage through smoke or chemical inhalation. Burns can occur in numerous different types of fire-related accidents, including:

Explosions

Vehicle accidents

Work-related burns

House or apartment fires

Work-Related Burns and Injuries

For adults, electrical burns and chemical burns are almost always related to work. Although California law limits many workers to workers' compensation benefits if they are injured on the job, you may still have other remedies. For example, when a defective product on the job is responsible for your injuries, or when someone other than your employer has caused or contributed to your burn injury, it may still be possible to file a personal injury lawsuit despite workers' compensation laws. Do not give up until you talk with an attorney about your options.

How much is my burn injury case worth?

Clients often asked how much their case is worth. A case's value depends on many factors, and often requires consultation with highly qualified experts to accurately assess the full extent of damages and injuries. It may be necessary for these experts to testify at trial about your economic situation and the home care, nursing care and equipment you may need to live the most productive life possible. Further, the value of the pain and suffering you have incurred will need to be determined. Obviously, in a burn situation, pain, suffering and disfigurement damages may be significant.
