Common Causes of Burn Injuries in Los Angeles

Beyond agonizing pain, burns often leave lasting physical and emotional scars. These injuries can occur in a variety of settings and situations throughout L.A., and they often come about as a result of negligent or reckless actions.

Here are some of the most common causes of burn injuries as identified by our seasoned personal injury attorneys:

Motor Vehicle Accidents

The high speeds and forceful impacts involved in motor vehicle accidents can lead to fires or explosions, causing serious burn injuries to drivers, passengers, and even pedestrians. These accidents occur all too frequently on L.A.’s freeways, highways, and busy intersections.

Workplace Accidents

Many workplaces present inherent risks of burn injuries, particularly in industries like construction, manufacturing, and energy production.

Work-related accidents that can cause burns include:

• Fires: Fires can erupt due to faulty wiring, malfunctioning equipment, flammable materials, or explosions.
• Chemical Spills: Exposure to hazardous chemicals, acids, or solvents can produce severe burns, especially in industrial settings.
• Explosions: Explosions are a major risk in places like refineries, chemical plants, and construction sites.
• Electrical Mishaps: Contact with live wires, faulty equipment, or electrical arcs can lead to severe burns and internal injuries.

Defective Products

Malfunctioning appliances, faulty wiring in homes or commercial buildings, defective heating systems, and consumer products with design or manufacturing flaws can give rise to injury-causing fires or explosions.

Premises Liability Accidents

Property owners have a legal responsibility to maintain safe premises for tenants, visitors, and guests.

Negligence in maintaining safe conditions can lead to burn injuries in various settings, including:

• Apartments: Fires in apartment buildings can be due to faulty wiring, overloaded electrical circuits, malfunctioning appliances, or arson.
• Hotels: Similar to apartments, hotel fires often happen because of negligence in maintaining electrical systems, fire suppression systems, or other safety features.
• Restaurants: Kitchens present a high risk of fires due to the use of open flames, hot surfaces, and flammable materials.

Proper safety protocols and fire suppression systems are crucial to prevent burn injuries to both staff and patrons of these establishments.

Understanding the common causes of burn injuries serves to promote safety and hold negligent parties accountable. If you’ve suffered a burn injury in Los Angeles, Cohen & Marzban can help you seek justice and pursue fair compensation for your losses.

Scarring and Disfigurement

Burn injuries often result in permanent scarring and disfigurement. In this case, your award may address the emotional anguish, self-consciousness, and impact on your quality of life your scarring has caused.
