    Fort Lauderdale Attorney David I. Fuchs

    David I. Fuchs, Fort Lauderdale Burn Injury Lawyer

     

    Burns are some of the most painful of all bodily injuries. They can take weeks or even months to fully heal, and they leave behind significant scarring, disfigurement, and disability. Burns are also prone to infection and typically require more hospital time than most injuries.

    Medical bills and lost wages also can amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars – not to mention the significant physical pain and emotional suffering burn survivors experience.

    At David I. Fuchs, Injury & Accident Lawyer, P.A., we’re passionate about helping burn victims. We know that most burns are preventable and arise out of someone else’s negligence. Our team of Fort Lauderdale burn injury lawyers can investigate a bad burn, identify why it happened, and pursue compensation from the at-fault party or parties.

    We can do everything it takes to secure a fair recovery for such an injury. If you or a loved one suffered a burn, let our Fort Lauderdale personal injury attorneys help you.

    What Might Lead to a Severe Burn?

    Burns happen when the body’s tissues suffer damage from heat, electricity, chemicals, or radiation. Burns can vary in severity, from first-degree burns that don’t cause blisters or scarring to third-degree burns that can result in amputation of the limb from severe deep-tissue damage.

    Burns can kill the skin cells, causing permanent damage that a survivor can never fully recover from. If this happens, the burn victim or surviving loved ones may have the opportunity to sue the party responsible for causing the burn. A wide variety of things can cause burn injuries, including:

    • Building fires
    • Car accidents
    • Contact with flammable liquids or gases
    • Defective or dangerous products
    • Electrical burns or electrocution
    • Explosions
    • Exposure to dangerous chemicals
    • Prolonged exposure to the sun
    • Scalds and burns at home
    • Smoke inhalation injuries
    • Wildfires
    • Workplace accidents

    If a bad burn happens in a vehicle, at work, or right at home, don’t hesitate to contact our dedicated lawyers in Fort Lauderdale. There could be one or more parties legally responsible for your burn injury and resultant damages.

    Another driver, your employer, or a product manufacturer could all become defendants in your case. A free case evaluation with someone from our legal team can help you identify the responsible parties and pursue fair compensation for your damages.

    “…the settlement I received was much higher than anticipated”

    Fuchs was my car accident attorney and was very responsive from the first call. I had medical care the next day and the whole process was smooth. They handled everything with the insurance companies and coordinated all of the necessary medical information. It was a long process and in the end the settlement I received was much higher than anticipated I am more than happy and grateful for the outcome.

    “…they didn’t settle for anything and my boyfriend and I got what we deserved.”

    I got in an accident in December 2021 when everyone was short staffed and insurance companies was not responsive. My boyfriend reached out to David F. and what a life changing experience. We had the pleasure of having all our worries handed to professional help. They worked diligently on our case, answered questions when asked and kept us updated on changes. More importantly they didn’t settle for anything and my boyfriend and I got what we deserved. I have dealt with others in the past but David got me the most according to the facts presented and never backed down when the insurance companies tried to make us settle for less. Thank you David, Jessica and the team for all your effort and hard work. I will recommend them to family and friends. [They’re] the best in town!

    “Mr. Fuchs is one of the hardest working attorneys that I know.”

    Mr. Fuchs is one of the hardest working attorneys that I know. He is really good at what he does and puts 110% in you case. I have been using him for 19 years now and refer all my friends to him. I can leave him alone with my case and not call him all the time. I know he is working hard in my case. When he has any information he calls me and we go from there. There are not a lot of attorneys I can do that with! If you have any Personal Injuries please do call him. You won’t be disappointed!!
