Burn Injuries
At the Killino Firm, we know burn injuries. We understand that a burn injury is one of the most painful injuries a person can experience. When skin is burned, nerve damage occurs, resulting in severe, often excruciating pain.
At the Killino Firm, our attorneys understand that serious burn injuries are catastrophic and can change a person’s life forever. Serious burns not only cause extreme pain but can also have lasting affects on a person’s muscles, bones, nerves and blood vessels. Burn accidents are a leading cause of unintentional deaths in the U.S., exceeded only by auto accidents and falls.
If you or a loved one has suffered a severe burn injury, or if your loved one has been killed as a result of serious burns, you should contact the experienced legal team at the Killino Firm. Our attorneys will handle your injury claim with compassion and personalized care, and with the same intensity as we have the class action lawsuit against Mattel.
