Burn Injury

Dallas Burn Injury Lawyer

A burn injury is one of the most painful injuries that one can experience. Burn injuries claim over 2 million Americans as victims every year. More than half of these people sustain significant or permanent disabilities from their burn injury. Thousands more die from these injuries.

When skin burns, nerve endings are damaged causing intense feelings of pain. A serious burn injury is complex, affecting muscles, bones, nerves, and blood vessels. The respiratory system can also be damaged from a burn injury, with possible airway obstruction, respiratory failure and respiratory arrest.

Because burns injure the skin, they impair the body's normal fluid/electrolyte balance, body temperature, body thermal regulation, joint function, manual dexterity, and physical appearance. Victims of burn injury also may suffer emotional and psychological problems that can begin at the emergency scene and sometimes last a lifetime.

If you or a loved one suffers as the result of a burn injury, please contact the Rasansky Law Firm to discuss your legal rights.
