Burn Injury

Philadelphia, Lancaster, Pennsylvania

Approximately 4000 people in the US die from burn injuries every year, but thousands more suffer from long term pain and life-altering impact of these injuries. From the initial emergency treatment to rehabilitative therapy and expensive reconstruction surgery, burn injuries can take a heavy toll on your finances as well as your personal life.

At Atlee Hall, LLP, our compassionate burn injury attorneys help victims of burn injuries get compensated for their losses.

Common Causes of Burn Injuries

Burn injuries can be the result of personal negligence, but all too often they result from the negligence of others. Causes of burn injuries that could have been avoided if proper care had been taken include:

• Motor vehicle accident
• Defective products
• Industrial accidents
• Construction accidents

Burns may also be caused by factors beyond your control like hot water heaters, gas explosions, or radiation. When you suffer personal injury from a burn in an accident that you are not responsible for, you are entitled to seek compensation for your losses. The burn injury lawyers at Atlee Hall, LLP have over 30 years of experience assisting people who have been injured in these accidents get the compensation they deserve.

Treating Burn Injuries

Depending on the severity of your burns, you may need only topical care like ointments and bandages to recover. In more extreme cases, burn injury treatment options may include:

• Hospitalization
• Out-patient therapy
• Pressure garments
• Skin grafts
• Dermabrasion

Concerns in serious burn cases include decreased pain sensation, a loss of ability to sweat, and severe disfigurement. These can have both medical and emotional effects on your life, and require changes in work, daily routine, or social behavior. Getting compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more is important to the attorneys at Atlee Hall, LLP, and we will fight aggressively for this so you can concentrate on healing.
