Frequently Asked Questions About Fire & Burn Injury Cases

How long do I have to file a burn injury lawsuit in Texas? Texas law provides a two-year statute of limitations for personal injury cases, including fire and burn injuries. This deadline begins from the date of the injury, making prompt legal action essential for protecting your rights.

What should I do immediately after suffering a burn injury? Seek immediate medical attention for your injuries, even if they appear minor. Document the accident scene if possible, preserve any evidence, and contact an experienced burn injury attorney as soon as your medical condition allows.

Can I still recover compensation if I was partially at fault for my burn injury? Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule. You can still recover damages if you were less than 51% at fault for the accident, though your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.

How much is my burn injury case worth? The value of burn injury cases varies significantly based on factors such as the severity of injuries, extent of scarring, medical expenses, lost wages, and impact on quality of life. Our attorneys provide free case evaluations to assess your potential compensation.

What if the burn injury resulted in a fatality? In cases involving wrongful death from burn injuries, surviving family members may be entitled to pursue compensation through a wrongful death claim. Our firm handles these sensitive cases with compassion and determination.

Do I need to pay attorney fees upfront? Labinoti Law Firm handles burn injury cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no attorney fees unless we recover compensation for your case. This allows injured victims to access quality legal representation without financial barriers.
