Burn Injury Cases We Handle

Burn injuries we handle in and around Bonita Springs include residential or apartment fires tied to faulty wiring, unsafe building conditions, or missing smoke alarms; car accidents that lead to vehicle fires or explosions; workplace incidents involving electrical shock, hot equipment, or chemical exposure; defective products such as unsafe appliances, tools, or batteries; and scald injuries from dangerously hot water or liquids.

We also represent clients hurt in high-impact roadway events, including a multi-vehicle accident, where post-crash fires can cause severe, life-altering burns.

Severe burns can cause deep tissue damage, nerve injury, infection, and permanent scarring, often requiring surgeries, skin grafts, ongoing wound care, and therapy. In a burn injury claim, we pursue compensation for medical costs (current and future), lost income and reduced earning ability, and the physical and emotional impact on daily life.

What To Do After A Burn Injury

• Get emergency medical care immediately.
• Follow all doctor instructions and attend every follow-up appointment.
• Photograph your burns as they heal.
• Photograph the scene where the burn happened (if possible).
• Save the clothing, equipment, or product involved do not throw it away.
• Collect witness names and contact information.
• Do not give recorded statements or sign insurance documents before speaking with an attorney.
• Contact a burn injury lawyer to handle insurer communication and track Florida filing deadlines.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much will it cost to hire your firm?

We work on a contingency fee basis, so you do not pay attorney fees up front. Our fee is a percentage of the recovery and is discussed with you before you sign any agreement. We also offer free consultations to help you understand whether you may have a case.

What if my burns will need more surgeries later?

We carefully consider future medical needs when we evaluate a burn injury case. That can include planned surgeries, scar revision, therapy, and counseling. Our team reviews medical opinions about your long-term care so we can pursue compensation that reflects both current and reasonably expected treatment.

How long do burn injury cases usually take?

The timeline for a burn injury claim depends on factors such as how complex the facts are, how severe the injuries are, and how willing insurers are to negotiate. Some cases resolve in several months, while others take longer. We keep you informed and explain what to expect as your case moves forward.

Will I work directly with an attorney?

Yes, our clients work directly with attorneys, including David and Kristin Pittman. As a family operated firm, we limit the number of cases we accept so we can provide personal attention. Our team is available to answer your questions and to guide you through each step of the process.

Can you help if the insurance company already made an offer?

We can review any offer an insurance company has made before you decide whether to accept it. Often, early offers do not fully account for future medical care, scarring, or lost income. We explain what your claim may involve and discuss options for pursuing a more complete resolution.
