Why Should I Trust Atlanta Personal Injury Law Group With My Burn Injury Case in Woodstock?
Choosing a lawyer is never easy, but we hope to make the choice as easy as possible for you. Clients with burns and other severe injuries in Woodstock entrust their cases to Atlanta Personal Injury Law Group because:
We Are Part of the Woodstock Community
We aren’t lawyers who travel to Woodstock once in a while for cases. No, we have an office on Towne Lake Parkway in the city’s heart. This means:
- We are always available to speak or visit with you
- You know exactly where we will be building your case from
- We can promptly visit accident scenes and other case-related locations
- We are familiar with the City of Woodstock and its civil justice system
Because our firm is part of the Woodstock community, you may feel an added passion from our team. We care about community safety, and it pains us when residents or visitors unnecessarily suffer burn injuries.
We Have Represented Many Clients with Burn Injuries
Our attorneys strive to help those in need and burn injury victims suffer some of the most comprehensive health problems. These injuries are complex, as they can cause severe physical symptoms but also debilitating mental and emotional health fallout.
Our familiarity with representing burn injury victims in Georgia means:
- We know doctors and mental health providers experienced in caring for burn victims (and can arrange for you to see them)
- We understand that burns are not just physical injuries but can affect virtually every aspect of your life
- We understand the financial cost that often results from burn injuries
Our lawyers know the medical language surrounding burns. Even so, we work with qualified medical providers to better understand, document, and value burn injuries.
Our Reputation for Client Service Precedes Us
You can tell a lot about a law firm based on how they treat their clients. If you review testimonials from our former clients, you’ll find common themes like:
- Knowledge of personal injury law
- Attention to detail
- Compassion for our clients
- A tenacious approach to negotiating cases and fighting at trial
You should give appropriate weight to these testimonials, as our clients volunteer them without prompting. If you want a law firm that will treat you like family, look no further than Atlanta Personal Injury Law Group.
We Never Hesitate to Go to the Trial
Those responsible for causing burns don’t always own up to their negligence. In these cases, liable parties or their insurance companies may try to:
- Blame the burn victim for causing their injury
- Claim that the burns happened before the event in question
- Undervalue the cost of medical care or other recoverable damages
- Have the burn victim accept a lowball settlement
We sometimes work through these tactics and secure a settlement for our clients. In other cases, liable parties refuse to back down, and we take cases to trial. In either case, our team will fight relentlessly for all the compensation you deserve.
You Pay Us No Upfront or Out-of-Pocket Costs
Our firm uses contingency fees for our client’s benefit. A contingency fee means:
- As a client, you don’t have to pay us any upfront or out-of-pocket compensation
- Our fee is contingent upon us obtaining a settlement or verdict for you
In simple terms, we only receive a fee if we get a settlement or verdict for you. We pay for all case costs and have a clear financial motivation to succeed on your behalf.
Each of Our Burn Injury Lawyers Works By These Foundational Principles
Atlanta Personal Injury Law Group prides itself on standing out from other firms. We start by identifying several foundational principles that each of our attorneys lives up to, day in and day out.
When you hire a Woodstock burn injury lawyer from our team, expect someone who is:
- Accountable
- Optimistic
- Proactive
- Detail-focused
- Compassionate
- Efficient
- Entirely focused on your best interests
Our attorneys lead each case and will do the same for yours. However, we also have a robust support staff, including paralegals, client coordinators, case managers, and others who will ensure you receive the service you deserve.
Reasons to Bring a Burn Injury Claim or Lawsuit
We help clients with burn injuries suffered in a range of ways, including:
- Car accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Pickup truck accidents
- Commercial truck accidents
- Bus accidents
- Pedestrian accidents
- Workplace accidents (including construction accidents)
- Premises liability accidents (such as burns resulting from exposed, hot pipes)
- Physical attacks by humans and animals
- Exposure to toxic chemicals
- Burns caused by defective products
- Medical malpractice events
These are some of the many ways burns can happen. There are many other events and hazards that can be grounds for you to file a burn injury claim or lawsuit in Woodstock. The two general criteria for taking action after a burn injury are:
- You or a loved one suffered a burn injury
- You know or suspect that someone’s negligence caused or contributed to the burn
If you have any inkling that someone’s actions or failure to act contributed to you suffering a burn, Atlanta Personal Injury Law Group wants to hear from you. We will evaluate your case and explain all options for seeking fair compensation in Woodstock.
Recoverable Damages We Seek for Burn Injury Victims
We will ensure you see doctors, mental health professionals, and anyone else who can evaluate your recoverable damages. You may be entitled to compensation for:
Medical Expenses
Those who suffer burns may need:
- An examination of the burned skin
- X-rays
- Diagnostic tests
- Wound assessment and treatment
- Therapy
- Surgery
- A lengthy period of hospitalization
Our team will evaluate all of your burn-related medical needs and demand that liable parties cover the cost of your care.
Scarring and Disfigurement
Burns can significantly change the victim’s appearance, particularly if the burns affect visible body parts. Scarring and disfigurement:
- Can significantly affect the victim’s self-esteem
- Contribute to depression and other mental health difficulties
- May lead the burn victim to undergo cosmetic surgery
- Affect every aspect of the victim’s life (and diminish their quality of life)
We will ensure that you receive mental health services, access to surgeons, and any other help you need because of scarring and disfigurement. The types of medical care you need may depend on the burn cause, the depth of the burn, the amount of your body that was burned, and several other factors.
Other Types of Pain and Suffering
Those who suffer the effects of burns may endure pain and suffering beyond scarring and disfigurement. You may also face:
- Depression
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Anxiety
- Sleep problems
- Lost quality of life
- Physical pain
The emotional and psychological toll of a burn injury may even contribute to substance abuse problems, suicidal thoughts, and other serious consequences.
Professional Harm
If your burn injury affects your work, consequences may include:
- Lost income
- Diminished earning power
- Lost performance incentives (like overtime pay and goal-specific bonuses)
If you are disabled, you may permanently lose your ability to earn a living. Whatever the professional cost of your burn is, our team will seek the compensation you deserve.
A Disability
When burns qualify as disabling injuries, it indicates that the victim may face several added challenges, including:
- Inability to earn a sustainable living
- Long-term pain and suffering
- The cost of caregiver services
- Medical equipment
Atlanta Personal Injury Law Group builds cases around each client. Because everyone’s injuries, damages, and needs are unique, we never make assumptions about burn injury cases.
Our team serving Woodstock will identify every type of harm you’ve suffered because of your burn. We will then fight for your financial recovery like you’re part of our family.
We Can Represent You After Losing a Loved One Because of a Fatal Burn
An estimated 180,000 people die each year due to burns and burn-related complications. Every burn is a serious event, and fatal burns are particularly tragic. We handle wrongful death cases in Woodstock, and we will seek compensation covering the following:
- Funeral expenses
- The cost of burial or cremation
- Loss of the decedent’s non-economic value (like spousal companionship)
- Loss of the decedent’s contributions to their loved ones (like handiwork and help with chores)
- Pain and suffering, including but not limited to grief
- Loss of the decedent’s income
It can be difficult for any burn injury victim to handle the demands of their claim or lawsuit. If you are dealing with the fallout of a wrongful death, you will almost certainly struggle to handle your case. Allow Atlanta Personal Injury Law Group to lead your case so you can prioritize your health.
