San Francisco Burn Injury Lawyers
Burn injuries are among the most devastating and painful a person can suffer and among the most expensive to treat. Sadly, burns are extremely common. Burn injury is second only to auto accidents as a leading cause of accidental death in the U.S.
According to the Journal of Burn Care and Rehabilitation, approximately 2.4 million burn injuries are reported per year. Many more burns that cause minor skin injuries typically go unreported. Between 8,000 and 12,000 patients with burns die and approximately one million will sustain substantial or permanent disabilities resulting from their burn injury.
