Third Degree Burn Injury Attorney

Unfortunately fire and explosions can occur during car accidents. Fire is the most usual cause of burns but chemicals, hot liquids and gases, and high voltage electricity often cause devastating injuries. In accidents which involve more serious burns a victim may suffer a third degree or even more severe level of injury. Recovery from such burns can take a long time. If you or a loved one has suffered a serious burn injury it is crucial that you gain the assistance of a Houston catastrophic injury attorney with the expertise that comes from years of experience.

What is a third degree burn?

Burns are classified according to the layers of skin which have been affected. A third degree burn affects all the three layers of skin. The even more severe fourth degree burn destroys all three layers of skin as well as tissue below the skin such as muscle and bone. Very often the accidents which result in burn injuries are caused by someone’s carelessness or disregard for the safety of others.
