Hello, this is John Kelly of the Kelly Law Team and I want to talk to you about Burn Injuries.
If you've been injured by another person and burned, you know that the injuries that you have can be extremely severe, they can cause lifelong problems for you and potentially scarring that never goes away. These are the type of issues that make these claims unique. Often times when we see claims for burn injuries, we want to focus on longterm. The scarring can make you anguish mentally but also physically it can change a lot of things in your life and they can be a lifelong recovery process. There's often reconstructive surgery that's needed, and what we want to focus on is what kind of compensation can you get for those future medical costs and what you've been through, generally. This isn't a broken bone that's going to heal up. Often times these are scars that could affect your life, your lifestyle, they could affect your career, and they could affect your confidence moving forward. So what we want to do is make sure that you have the necessary tools to make a claim successfully.
The ways that we make sure that you have the tools necessary is documenting, get you to the right doctors. Sometimes we do vocational rehab. Sometimes we do opinions by doctors that tell us how long the scarring is going to last. A lot of times I've found that doctors will tell you it's going to take at least a year to understand the length of time that it will take you to heal. If it is a permanent scar, a lot of times they won't even make that determination until after a year.
When we're looking at these things we need to make sure the insurance companies, whoever's at fault, understand the extent of the injuries so that you can fully recover and maximize your recovery. I have a team that I can put together for you so that we can make sure that you're getting that maximum recovery in a burn injury.
If you have questions about this or just need to talk to someone to get the details of how to proceed, give us a call here, 602-283-4122.
