A burn injury claim covers medical costs, rehabilitation, and related expenses. It can also address ongoing care, future medical needs, and lost wages.
In California, most burn injury claims must be filed within two years of the injury. There are exceptions for certain situations and government claims that may extend or alter deadlines.
Damages may include medical bills, ongoing treatment, lost wages, and non-economic losses like pain and suffering. Plaintiffs may also seek compensation for future medical care and diminished quality of life.
You can handle a claim yourself, but insurers often propose low initial settlements. An attorney can negotiate, prepare a strong demand package, and advocate on your behalf.
Bring documentation such as photo evidence, medical records, doctor notes, bills, accident reports, and any witness information. If available, include insurance information.
Fault is determined through evidence, witness statements, and duty of care. We review the scene, gather records, and assess how the burn occurred and who is responsible.
California uses comparative negligence; you may still recover if you are partly at fault, with damages reduced by your share of responsibility.
Timelines vary by case complexity. Some cases resolve in months, while others require negotiation or trial and may take longer.
Work-related burns may be addressed through workers’ compensation, and you may pursue a personal injury claim against a third party if applicable.
Your medical information is treated with confidentiality. We share only what is necessary to pursue your claim and protect your privacy.
