We engage with insurance companies or responsible parties to seek a fair settlement that compensates for your injuries and related damages.
If settlement efforts fail, we prepare to advocate aggressively in court to secure the compensation you deserve.
We handle a wide range of burn injuries, including chemical burns, electrical burns, scalds, and thermal burns caused by accidents or negligence.
Regardless of the burn type, we work to ensure that clients receive full compensation for medical expenses, pain, and suffering.
In Missouri, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims, including burn injuries, is generally five years from the date of the injury.
It is important to consult with an attorney promptly to ensure all deadlines are met and your case is properly prepared.
Missouri follows a comparative fault rule, meaning you may still recover damages even if you were partially responsible, though your compensation may be reduced accordingly.
An attorney can help assess the impact of fault on your case and advise on the best approach to maximize your recovery.
Compensation can cover medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and costs for future treatments or rehabilitation.
Each case is unique, and damages depend on the severity and circumstances surrounding the burn injury.
Ott Law operates on a contingency fee basis for personal injury cases, meaning no upfront fees and payment only if we obtain a recovery for you.
This allows clients to pursue their claims without financial strain during the process.
The duration varies based on case complexity, insurance cooperation, and court schedules. Some cases resolve within months while others take longer if litigation is needed.
We strive to handle cases efficiently while ensuring thorough preparation for the best outcomes.
Seek prompt medical attention to address your injuries and document your condition. Then contact a qualified attorney to protect your rights and start building your case.
Avoid giving recorded statements to insurance companies until you have legal guidance.
Keep detailed records of medical treatments, doctors’ visits, and injury progression to support your claim.
Limit social media posts and conversations that could be used against you in settlement negotiations or court.
Early legal advice helps preserve evidence and meet critical deadlines for your burn injury case.
Prioritize your health and leave the legal complexities to your attorney for the best outcome.
