Burn Injury: A Lengthy Recovery
A burn injury — including electric burns, chemical burns, explosion burns, or burns in a fire — is extremely painful when it occurs. This pain continues through months or years of treatment. No financial compensation can fully cover all the pain and suffering, but our personal injury attorneys work to recover maximum settlements and verdicts.

The full extent of a burn injury — especially those from electrical shock — may not be obvious right away. The personal injury lawyers at Brindisi, Murad, Brindisi, Pearlman, Julian & Pertz in upstate New York counsel clients to learn the full extent of injuries and the necessary treatment before agreeing to a settlement.
- Electrical shock can cause a brain injury. It may begin with an electrical shock from a drill at a work site or a hair dryer at home. Family and coworkers may notice personality changes and cognitive problems. There may even be neuromuscular changes that affect fine motor skills.
- Electrocution can cause permanent scarring, pain or even wrongful death. In many case, the pain is tolerable at first, but increases over time because of RSD — reflex sympathetic dystrophy.
- Burn injury treatment takes time. Scarring and skin grafts can cause physical and emotional pain. Victims of severe burns often have multiple surgeries for skin grafts. The financial costs are high, as are the costs of pain and suffering.
The personal injury attorneys at our law firm work to develop proof of the pain and suffering burn injury victims endure. We want insurance companies and juries to understand the extensive costs of burn injuries. Contact us for a free consultation.
