Frequently Asked Questions

What Should I Do Immediately After a Burn Injury?

First, seek medical attention to assess and stabilize your injuries. Then, document everything related to the incident, including photographs of the injuries and the accident scene, and collect witness contact information. Contact Law Offices of B. Shannon Saunders, PA for a consultation to understand your legal options.

Ensuring you receive proper and timely medical treatment is crucial for both health recovery and legal documentation. Detailed medical records form a critical component of substantiating your claim and calculating the appropriate compensation. Furthermore, an early medical assessment helps in identifying potential complications, which we can address in your legal strategy, emphasizing both immediate care and potential future needs.

How Are Burn Injuries Compensated in Florida?

Compensation typically covers medical expenses, lost wages, pain & suffering, and future medical care. In Florida, damages are decided based on the severity of the injury and its impact on your life. Our team conducts a meticulous analysis of your damages to claim the rightful compensation.

Economic damages, such as medical expenses and lost earnings, are calculated based on actual financial losses. However, non-economic damages, like pain & suffering, require a more nuanced approach. These damages are subjectively assessed based on the impact on your everyday life and mental well-being. Our team employs skilled professionals to present your case effectively and convey the true cost of your suffering to decision-makers.

How Long Do I Have to File a Burn Injury Claim?

In Florida, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims, including burn injuries, is generally two years from the date of the accident. It’s crucial to file as soon as possible to ensure evidence is preserved and your case is initiated in a timely manner.

Failure to act within this period may lead to forfeiture of your right to seek compensation. Prompt legal consultation ensures that you avoid missing critical deadlines and secures your ability to hold the responsible parties accountable. At Law Offices of B. Shannon Saunders, PA, we prioritize prompt action, aligning our efforts with your immediate needs and the legal timeline.
