Our Burn Injury Lawyer Fights Hard for Favorable Financial Compensation
The amount of compensation burn victims can recover for their burn injury case will depend on several factors, including the severity of the injuries, the amount of time they prevent the burn victim from working while they recover, and the medical attention they require.
The economic and non-economic damages we request on injury victims’ behalf can include:
- Medical treatment, including rehab, in-home support, and assistive medical devices
- Lost income, including full-time, part-time, and freelance or gig-economy wages
- Property damage, including repair, replacement, and diminished value
- Permanent scarring, ongoing physical pain, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life
If a loved one succumbs to severe burn injuries, our legal team will request a range of wrongful death damages for your family, such as funeral and burial costs, loss of income, and loss of consortium. Our wrongful death lawyer can also explain which family members can file a wrongful death action and who can recover damages.
Filing Your Burn Injury Lawsuit on Time Is Important to Your Financial Recovery
It can be hard to wait for your case to be resolved. When we represent you, we provide our clients with regular updates and explain the timeline of their case, including how long it can take to settle their burn injury claim.
We also explain the filing deadline that applies to your case. In North Carolina, the statutes of limitations for burn injury victims are the following:
- Under G.S. § 1-52, personal injury lawsuits should be filed within three years
- Under G.S. § 1-53, wrongful death lawsuits should be filed within two years
If you live in South Carolina, S.C. Ann § 15-3-530 gives you three years to file your personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit. The statute of limitations can toll, or pause, so if you have questions regarding the deadlines in your burn injury case, our legal team can clarify them for you.

How We Identify Financial Liability for Accidents Leading to Burn Injuries
To recover damages from the person or entity whose negligence caused your accident, we prove its legal elements. Those legal elements of negligence include:
- Duty of care: The obligation to your safety
- Breach of duty: The failure to maintain that obligation
- Causation: The accident and injuries that resulted
- Damages: The physical pain and financial hardship
Our burn injury attorney will build a comprehensive case file that establishes these elements. The evidence we collect for your personal injury claim will vary depending on the type of accident that caused your injuries. Evidence could include:
- Medical records and bills that describe your injuries and their known and anticipated costs
- Full and part-time employment and salary history records and other proof of income
- Security, surveillance, dashcam, and other photos and videos
- Statements from accident witnesses and relevant expert testimonials
We also obtain any official reports related to your case, including police reports, accident reconstruction reports, incident reports, and any research or studies we commission to support your case.
