Burn Injury Lawyer
In 1992, I was severely burned in a flash fire that resulted in a successful defective product liability lawsuit against the manufacturers of the water heater and the flammable solvent involved. I later obtained a law degree in 1997 to pursue burn injury cases. Since then, as an Illinois burn lawyer, I have represented burn victims in lawsuits based on products liability, negligence, and violations of such federal laws as the Consumer Product Safety Act and the Federal Hazardous Substances Act.
With the 11 members of my law firm, we have represented burn survivors or their family members against makers and retailers of gas appliances, piping, and containers--both natural and liquid petroleum gas. We have sued for defective products that caused injury because of defective design, manufacture, or warnings. We have obtained millions of dollars in recovery for burns and property damages resulting from the use of water heaters, furnaces, gas control valves, as well as from electricity, batteries, gasoline, flammable liquids, solvents, gun powder, and motor cycles.
As a burn injury lawyer, with the support of my law firm, we have lawsuits in federal and state courts around the country, as well as in the Chicago area. In working with you to obtain legal remedies we often work as a team with your personal lawyer, or with a local lawyer from where you live. We have pursued cases throughout the mid-western United States including Illinois, Missouri, Iowa and elsewhere. We utilize the best experts available from all over the United States. It is our policy to keep our clients fully informed and involved in every aspect of their lawsuit through frequent updates. An initial consultation is free of charge, so please feel free to contact us.
I understand from my own experience the fears, frustration and needs of burn victims. (I invite you to visit my personal site at www.burnsurvivorusa.com)
