Burn injuries are generally some of the most painful and disfiguring types of injuries.  Victims of burn injuries often face long term pain and disability as well as a life-time of medical care.

Rourke & Blumenthal has successfully represented many clients who have suffered burn injuries or have lost a loved one as a result of a house fire, explosion, or chemical fire.  Some examples include a $6.5 million settlement for the families of 10 people killed in an apartment arson fire; a settlement in excess of $4.5 million for a family injured in a gas explosion; and a $3.2 million settlement in a wrongful death case involving a landlord's failure to install smoke detectors.  

If you or a loved one has been injured in fire or explosion, it is necessary to hire attorneys who have significant experience in handling fire cases.  These cases are complicated and require immediate investigation in order to make sure that the necessary evidence is properly preserved.  Please contact Rourke & Blumenthal if you or a loved one has suffered burn injuries as a result of a fire or explosion.
