Norfolk Burns and Scars Attorneys
At Joe Miller Law, our lawyers in Norfolk know just how painful, uncomfortable and emotionally traumatizing burns and scars can be. Unfortunately, burns and scars often affect a person permanently, resulting in debilitating consequences for a victim, especially when the burn or scar is particularly severe.
While burns and scars are not always the fault of another party, there are, sadly, too many instances in which they are the consequences of another person’s negligent actions. In these situations, unsuspecting people are forced to deal with the unpleasant ramifications that a burn or scar has on their life. Fortunately, though, many victims are able to get justice and compensation from the party who caused their suffering by filling a personal injury lawsuit.
Causes of Burns and Scars
A burn or scar on your body can leave lasting, sometimes permanent, damage. Regrettably, there are many different ways in which people can sustain these injuries, including:
- Vehicle accidents, such as those caused by drunk or reckless driving
- Mishandling machinery or electric equipment
- Handling a dangerous product
- Explosions
- Fires in the workplace or on another’s property
- Medical malpractice, particularly improper suturing
All of these situations can lead to a person suffering a burn or developing a scar, something which is likely to affect them for many years to come.
