Connecticut Fire & Burn Injury Lawyers
Burn and Fire Accident Attorneys
The repercussions of a Connecticut fire accident are lasting, and on top of losing a home, furniture, or vehicles, families lose those important mementos—a lock of hair, baby clothes, graduation photos. Not only is a family reeling from terrible injuries and the unfathomable loss of personal things, that family no longer has a place to stay.
The comfort of going home to heal after a terrible accident is instantly erased when fire strikes. Burn injuries can also be some of the most serious, lasting, and painful injuries a person can suffer. Severe scarring is not only painful but also disfiguring and permanent. Nerve damage and deep burns can weaken the immune system and open the door for additional infections and illnesses as well, so the road to recovery after suffering a fire and burn injury is long and harrowing.
Every 22 seconds, a fire department responded to a fire somewhere in the country in 2008 according to the National Fire Protection Association
