For burn injuries, compensation can typically be sought under several categories. Economic damages might include past and future medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and lost wages due to the inability to work. Non-economic damages address the intangible impacts, such as pain, suffering, and emotional distress. In some instances, if the responsible party’s behavior was egregious, punitive damages may also be pursued to penalize them and deter similar future conduct. Each claim is unique, and understanding the full scope of your potential recovery is best handled with professional legal support.
