Legal
remedy
The research by American Burn Association (ABA)
claims that approximately 500,000 burn injuries are reported every year across
the USA with a 94% survival rate.
Though no legal aid can restore for burn victims
the loss of limbs or their pre-accident quality of life, suitable financial
compensation can help them obtain crucial medical treatment, physiotherapy and
lifetime support services.
There are several burn injury attorneys who have
helped victims obtain compensation from those responsible for the burn
accidents. They fight for the legal rights of burn injury victims through both
negotiation as well as litigation.
