If you live in San Francisco, then it’s important to understand the burn hazards you face as well as how to handle an injury. Not only have wildfires become more common throughout the state, but city fires are also on the rise as a result of uncontrolled fires linked to homeless encampments.

Burn injuries can lead to very serious injuries and losses. When someone else’s negligence caused the fire, you could have legal recourse. San Francisco burn injury lawyers can help you understand what caused your accident, who might be liable, and how to move forward with a potential claim. Learn more about burn injury claims and how our firm can advocate for your legal needs below.

Common Causes of Burn Injuries in San Francisco

Burn injuries can happen in a variety of situations and for many different reasons. Here are just a few of the most common causes of burn injury claims in San Francisco:

  • Wildfires;
  • House fire;
  • Encampment fires;
  • Smoke burns;
  • Scalding burns from steam;
  • Touching a hot surface;
  • Friction burns;
  • Explosions;
  • Chemical burns;
  • Contact with an electrical current.

The one common thread in most of the scenarios above is negligence. Under California’s laws, negligence happens when one party has a legal duty to provide for the care and safety of someone else and fails to do so. The negligent party is also considered the financially responsible party.

Understanding the Severity and Effects of Burn Injuries

Burns are classified based on their severity and the overall impact the burn will have on patients. Partial-thickness burns, or second-degree burns, impact the epidermis and some of the dermis. They can be classified as either superficial or deep. Superficial burns, also called first-degree burns, are the least severe. These burns generally heal within a few weeks. There will be some pain, redness, and swelling, but it’s unlikely that these injuries will lead to long-term impacts.

Second-degree burns are moderate and impact the underlying layer of skin. Expect redness, pain, swelling, and even blistering. Most of these types of burns will heal without long-term impacts, but they do take a longer period to do so. Some second-degree burns don’t fully heal for about 9 months.

Full-thickness burns destroy the dermis and injure the subcutaneous tissue. Victims with these injuries will likely need surgery to heal, and they will suffer from scarring. Initially, the burn could look charred or blackened. The damage could extend to the person’s bones, muscles, and tendons.

How Does a Burn Injury Claim Work?

If you suffered from a burn accident that you believe was someone else’s fault, then you could have legal recourse. Many burn victims suffer significant physical damage and financial losses as a result of the accident. What they may not know is that they can recover financially by leveraging California’s personal injury laws to their advantage. Personal injury laws in California state that anyone who has a legal duty to provide for someone else’s care and fails to do so can be held legally and financially responsible for the fallout of any accident that’s caused by their negligence.

Why Choose Kermani LLP for Your Burn Injury Claim

When you’re struggling with a severe injury, you need to focus on your physical recovery and overall well-being. While this needs to be your top priority, you’ll have to find a way to balance that with your timely efforts to collect evidence for your claim, file the right paperwork, and begin the negotiation process with the legally liable party.

When you hire a burn injury attorney, you can lean on their expertise to handle the legalities of your situation.

What counts as a burn injury case?

You’ll have the basis to seek out a burn injury claim when your situation has all the following elements:

  • One party had a legal duty to provide for your care and safety.
  • The other party failed to uphold their legal duty of care
  • This breach of duty of care led to your accident.
  • Your accident led to specific injuries and losses.

The most difficult thing to determine will be if the other party had a legal duty to provide for your care and whether their breach of this duty caused your accident. Some burn injury claims stem from an automatic or assumed legal duty of care. For instance, drivers who get behind the wheel automatically assume a duty of care towards everyone else on the road. Property owners have a duty to care for guests and businesses have a duty to care for customers. Consult with an attorney if you’re not sure if a legal duty of care exists in your situation.

How do I file a burn injury claim in San Francisco?

To file a burn injury claim in San Francisco, you’ll first need to compile all the documentation and evidence you’ll need to prove your arguments. You’ll want to value your losses and have a good settlement amount in mind before you present your case to the other party. From there, you’ll complete the official paperwork that will launch a claim. When the other party receives the claim, negotiations will begin.

What compensation can I get?

After a burn injury, you can file for compensation in the form of economic losses, like your medical bills and lost wages, and non-economic losses, like emotional distress.

What to do after a burn injury in San Francisco?

Immediately following your burn injury, you need to report the accident and get medical treatment ASAP. Once you’ve done so, you’ll want to start documenting your losses. If your losses are significant, then it may be time to get in touch with a lawyer who can help you determine your options.

How does California law affect burn injury cases in San Francisco?

Under California law, injured burn victims can file for compensation even if they are partially to blame for the accident.

How can a lawyer help with a burn injury in San Francisco?

A lawyer can help you determine your legal options after a burn injury. Depending on the specific facts surrounding your accident, you might be able to file a claim. If so, then your attorney can help you value your claim, negotiate with the other party, and seek justice.
