The Burn Injury Lawyers with Unmatched Experience
Burn injury cases are among the most complex and challenging–in part because critical evidence, such as the victim’s clothing, is often destroyed by the same fire or heat that caused the burns. Saltz Mongeluzzi Bendesky’s highly experienced lawyers work hard to preserve any remaining evidence, and leverage their deep knowledge of federal OSHA regulations and state and local fire safety codes, to review all relevant documents such as safety data sheets and inspection reports. With the help of independent experts, we analyze the chemicals or combustible materials involved and conduct experiments to recreate what triggered the fire or explosion. Saltz Mongeluzzi Bendesky’s pioneering use of video brochures—mini-documentaries that powerfully illustrate our clients’ pain and suffering and include victim, family, witness, and expert interviews and excerpts from the case’s depositions—often convinces defendants to enter into high-value settlements.
