Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to file a burn injury claim in California?

In California, you typically have two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Certain circumstances, such as claims against government entities, may involve shorter deadlines. Always consult an attorney early to preserve your rights.

What compensation can I recover after a burn injury?

You may be eligible to recover medical expenses (past & future), lost wages, pain and suffering, disfigurement, and costs for ongoing care or rehabilitation. Every case is unique, and compensation depends on the specific impact of your injury.

Are there special considerations for workplace burn injuries?

Workplace burns may involve both workers' compensation and third-party claims. Local workplaces are subject to Cal/OSHA regulations, and we work to ensure all responsible parties are identified and held appropriately accountable.

How do you determine who is at fault for my burn injury?

We investigate all aspects of your case—analyzing property records, incident reports, witness accounts, and compliance with local safety statutes—to identify negligent or liable parties. Multiple individuals or entities may share responsibility.

Will my case need to go to trial?

Most cases resolve through settlement, but we prepare every claim as though it will go to trial. Our reputation for success in the courtroom often encourages the other side to offer fair settlements sooner.
