What Caused Your Burn Injuries?
Depending on the cause of your burn injuries, you may be able to bring forward a claim against multiple parties. For example, if you were injured while using faulty equipment at work, you may be able to file a workers’ compensation claim and a third-party claim against the equipment manufacturer. That is why it's important to discuss your case with a New Jersey burn injury attorney as soon as possible.
Be sure to call our firm if you suffered burns due to:
- Any type of motor vehicle accident
- Defective wiring, electrical work, or equipment
- A workplace or construction site accident
- Chemical spills or exposure at work
- Unreasonably hot water
- Electrocution
- Any type of explosion
- Property fires due to defective products
