Types of Fire and Burn Injury Lawsuits
Burns and fire-related injuries can be devastating, leaving individuals with the physical and emotional trauma that can last a lifetime. If you suffered burns because of someone elseās carelessness, Maryland personal injury law gives you the right to demand compensation for your losses.
There are several different types of fire and burn injury claims:
- Negligence claims: If another partyās reckless behavior caused your burn injuries, you may be able to file a negligence claim to seek damages.
- Product liability lawsuits: If a consumer product, such as a defective appliance, malfunctions and burns you, you could have a case against the productās designer or manufacturer.
- Premises liability lawsuits: A premises liability lawsuit might be possible if a hazardous condition on anotherās property caused your burn injury. Building fires caused by poor wiring, lack of safety sprinklers or smoke alarms, or blocked fire escapes could be grounds for a premises liability claim.
- Wrongful death claims: If your loved one was killed in a fire or due to burn injuries, you may be able to pursue a wrongful death lawsuit against the responsible parties.
Burn injuries may also occur in the workplace, particularly in industrial and construction jobs. If you suffered burns at work, you may be entitled to Marylandās workersā compensation benefits to cover your medical bills, lost wages, and related disabilities. A workersā compensation attorney from Trollinger Law LLC can determine every potential source of compensation for you during your free case review.
