A burn injury can change your life, or the life of a loved one, in an instant. Life becomes more difficult and challenging. Burn victims and their families often face financial burdens due to expenses like lost wages and unpaid medical bills. What’s worse is that burn injuries often require expensive, ongoing treatment and care. That means more expenses in the future. Plus, if your burns are too severe, you may not be able to work. That leaves you and your family with no way to pay for living expenses or the growing medical bills. Kermani Law Firm is here to help you get just compensation.
Types of Compensation for Burn Injury Victims
Speak with burn injury attorneys in Santa Monica as soon as possible after your accident. We can review your case and go over the options with you. In some cases, you may be entitled to receive compensatory damages.
Our team includes legal, insurance, and negotiation specialists that will help you get the best outcome as fast as possible. We are experts in quickly resolving burn injury cases in Santa Monica.
Medical Expenses & Pain and Suffering
Treating a burn injury can be quite expensive due to the high cost of healthcare. A minor injury can require a visit to the ER, follow-up visits with burn specialists, getting medications, having diagnostic tests, and much more. If the injury is severe, you may have to be hospitalized, go through surgery, or need long-term care and assistance.
You need an experienced attorney who considers past, present, and future medical needs when reviewing a case. That’s the best way to determine the full amount of compensation you deserve.
Lost Wages
Burn injuries can keep you out of work for a long time. They can even keep you from returning to your old way of making a living. Losing wages for even a short amount of time can hurt you financially. Add the additional burden of medical costs, and you may find yourself in financial difficulty.
You may be missing work due to medical treatment or because the injuries make it impossible to do your job. In any case, you deserve compensation for those lost wages. With severe or debilitating injuries, you may find your future earning ability is compromised due to the accident. You may receive compensation for this lost ability if you cannot work any longer or must take a lower-paying job as a result.
How Can Kermani’s Burn Injury Lawyers in Santa Monica Help You?
When it comes to insurance companies, their main goal is to make a profit. That’s why they want to pay less than they make in premiums. Never think an insurance adjuster is on your side. The insurance companies train their employees to pay burn injury victims as little as possible. You need to have an experienced legal team at your side to get the most compensation possible.
The Kermani Law Firm handles your claim from start to finish. We handle the insurance company, help you get the right medical treatment, deal with the paperwork, put together a strong case, and help you get the compensation you deserve. Our team of experienced trial attorneys is prepared to take your case to court when the time comes.
You don’t have to worry about paying us until we win your case.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I seek compensation for a burn injury if I was partially at fault?
California’s courtrooms operate on a pure comparative negligence rule, which means that you can still file a claim even if you were partially at fault. Under this standard, each party will be assigned a percentage of fault. If you file a claim, then your settlement award will be reduced based on your percentage of fault.
How long do I have to file a burn injury lawsuit in Santa Monica?
In general, you have up to two years after suffering a burn injury accident to pursue a legal claim for compensation in Santa Monica. There are a few exceptions, like if you were a minor when the accident happened, but typically you forfeit your right to file a claim after two years.
Can I file a lawsuit for a burn injury if it happened at a rented property in Santa Monica?
If the owner of the rented property was negligent in some way and that negligence caused your burn injury accident, then you can file a lawsuit against the property owner. In California, rental property owners have a legal duty to keep their properties safe.
What factors influence the amount of compensation awarded in burn injury cases in Santa Monica?
Several factors could influence the amount of compensation awarded in a burn injury case including the severity of the injury, the extent of the person’s current and future losses, and each party’s respective level of fault.
Can I claim compensation for both physical and emotional damages from a burn injury?
After a burn injury, you can seek both economic and non-economic damages in a legal claim. Economic damages should cover compensation for your physical injuries including medical bills, lost wages, and more, while non-economic damages will cover emotional damages like pain and suffering.
