Burns and Disfigurements Following an Accident
Fires, chemical burns, and overheated machinery can be found in any type of accident whether its motor vehicle, construction, work or medical related. If you have been burned or permanently disfigured in an accident, financial compensation can be rewarded to protect your financial interests and help pay your medical and emotional expenses.
Types of Burn Injuries
Depending on the type and details of burn you receive during an accident will affect your personal injury compensation.
- First-degree burns are the less severe of the burns and only affects the outer layer of the skin but can still cause emotional damage.
- Second-degree burns are classified when the burns permeate through the first layers of skin and burns the more substantial skin layers underneath.
- Third-degree burns will go through all the layers of skin, stopping right before burning the bone.
- Fourth-degree burns are the most severe and can cause permanent disfigurement or even death.
