What Is a Burn Injury Claim?

A burn injury claim allows you to pursue compensation when burns are caused by an accident or negligent treatment. Burns can leave lasting scars—both physical and psychological—and often require long-term medical care, surgery, or rehabilitation.

These claims commonly arise from workplace accidents, road traffic incidents, defective products, or failures in medical treatment. We can help you recover damages to cover your medical expenses, cosmetic surgery, therapy, loss of income, and ongoing care.

Common Causes of Burn Injuries

Burn injuries can result from a variety of accidents, including:

  • Workplace accidents involving chemicals, hot surfaces, or faulty machinery
  • Road traffic accidents causing fire or fuel-related burns
  • Defective products such as faulty electrical appliances
  • Industrial accidents on construction sites or factories
  • Medical negligence, including anaesthetic errors, laser treatment burns, or negligent aftercare
  • Domestic accidents, including scalding or faulty electrics

Even if your injury seemed minor at first, burns can worsen over time, requiring ongoing medical treatment and rehabilitation. Let us help you understand your rights and pursue your claim for full compensation.
