What Constitutes a Burn Injury?
Burn injuries vary widely in severity, cause, and impact. From minor surface burns to life-threatening third-degree injuries, the damage can affect skin, nerves, muscles, and internal systems. Knowing how these injuries are classified helps determine the scope of treatment and legal claims.
Common types of burn injuries include:
- Thermal burns from fire, hot liquids, or steam
- Chemical burns caused by strong acids or alkalis
- Electrical burns from current exposure
- Radiation burns from sun exposure or medical treatments
Common Causes of Burn Injuries
Burn injuries often result from preventable situations where negligence plays a major role. These incidents can occur at home, on the road, or in the workplace, and frequently involve faulty equipment, unsafe conditions, or a lack of proper safety measures.
Typical causes of burn injuries include:
- Workplace accidents involving chemicals or open flames
- Defective products, like malfunctioning appliances or electronics
- Vehicle accidents leading to fuel fires or explosions
- Unsafe property conditions that expose residents to burn hazards
Learning the cause helps determine who may be held legally responsible.
Legal Rights and Options for Burn Injury Victims
Victims of severe burns often face overwhelming medical costs, long-term rehabilitation, emotional trauma, and lost income. Arizona law allows you to pursue compensation when someone else’s negligence leads to a serious burn injury. A qualified burn injury lawyer can help you navigate the legal system, protect your rights, and pursue full financial recovery.
You may be eligible to recover damages for:
- Emergency and ongoing medical treatment
- Lost income and reduced earning capacity
- Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
- Permanent disfigurement or disability
Legal action can also hold negligent parties accountable and help prevent similar harm to others.

A message for burn injury victims:
If you suffered serious burn injuries, have issues of scars or disfigurement, or if your loved one was killed because of a burn injury, you may be eligible for compensation. Sadly, many burn injury victims do not realize that their accidents were caused by the negligence of another party.
CASES WE HANDLE
Fuel-fed Burn Injuries
Fuel systems should never fail in survivable accidents. Unfortunately, many people become burn injury victims when fuel systems fail in low-speed or low-energy accidents. Fuel systems most commonly fail in: automobiles, aircraft and ATVs.
Natural Gas and Propane Injuries
A “rotten egg” smell is added to natural gas in an attempt to make it more obvious when there is a leak. However, there are conditions in which there could be a gas leak but no rotten egg smell. We represent individuals who were injured or killed because of natural gas explosions.
Electrical Burn Injuries
We represent individuals who suffered injuries because of electrical burns. Many of our clients were injured on construction sites, when machinery struck an underground electrical line or overhead power line, when workers touch or come near electrical lines, when a homeowner or visitor is shocked at home while digging in the backyard, when someone using a simple appliance is shocked, or when someone is on the job and is shocked by industrial equipment.
Thermal Burn Injuries
We represent individuals who were injured because of the exposure to flames, scalding liquids, steam or hot metals. The intense heat kills cells and damages tissues. Depending on their severity, thermal burns can be horrific. They often require extensive skin grafts, and the victim may be left with permanent scars and disfigurement.
