Princeton Burn Injury Victim Attorneys
New Jersey Burn Injury FAQ's
What should I do if I have been involved in a burn incident?
Every burn case that we've seen has been different and involves hundreds, if not thousands, of unique elements. The first thing anyone should do after being burned is to seek immediate medical attention. Paramedics and 911 operators are able to give help if needed for treating the burn the most effectively.
Your next step should be to contact an independent source of legal help. Our office offers free, no-obligation legal consultations on any New Jersey burn accident case and can help you protect yourself from any further harm as a result of your burn. A burn attorney can ensure that your rights as a victim are protected and that those responsible for your injury are also responsible for paying related bills.
I'm not sure if anyone was at fault in my burn incident, what should I do?
Contact Lependorf & Silverstein immediately for a free consultation. In many burn cases that we've seen the victim is not aware of the root causes of their injury at first. With our expert staff of medical professionals, private investigators and others we can piece together your burn case to find its ultimate cause.
In some cases a faulty car part may be responsible for the burn. Other cases that we've seen have involved the negligence of a person who should have seen to it that the burn could not have happened by following common safety procedures. It may not be clear to the victim what caused the burn to happen but only an independently performed investigation can find out.
How much does it cost to hire a New Jersey burn injury lawyer?
Lependorf & Silverstein are offering free legal consultations on any New Jersey burn incident. Our office is one of the few in the state providing no-obligation legal advice on burns.
Most every burn case that we handle is done via a contingent fee. This fee is a small, preset amount of a successful settlement. There are never any hidden fees from our office and we only get paid these fees if we win your case. We always factor contingent fees into any amount that we ultimately agree to settle upon. Because of contingent fees we can start working on your case immediately.
What will you do for me in my burn case?
Our New Jersey burn lawyers will provide you with the legal protection that you need. We will handle all communication between everyone involved and make sure that all victims are given medical treatment and rest that they need. If necessary we have several experts on our staff including private investigators and medical professionals who can piece together the burn incident in order to find if anyone was at fault.
Once we have compiled our case we will present it, along with a list of financial damages, to any and all insurance companies involved. The period following this common and typically some amount is ultimately settled on. We then provide our client with their legally owed money and will monitor any future developments if there are any.
