A burn injury occurs when skin or tissue is damaged by heat, chemicals, electricity, or radiation. Burns range from mild first-degree injuries affecting only the outer layer of skin to severe third-degree burns that destroy deeper tissues and nerves, often leading to permanent scarring, disability, or life-threatening complications.
Even a minor burn can result in significant pain and infection risk, while severe burns may demand years of treatment, surgeries, and rehabilitation.
Burn injuries can happen in countless scenarios. At the Law Office of Mark Wolin, we’ve seen the following as the most frequent causes:
Miami-Dade County is fortunate to have a leading medical facility for this type of injury—the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital Burn Center, which specializes in providing surgery and rehabilitation to burn injury victims. We know. We’ve spent countless hours there getting to know the doctors and nurses looking after our client who had sustained third-degree burns to much of his body.
Burn injuries can transform every aspect of a person’s life. Symptoms may be immediate, but complications can linger or worsen over time. Seeking medical and legal help promptly is critical.
Burn injury cases are intricate. Insurance companies often minimize the extent of injuries or dispute liability to reduce payouts. Without skilled legal representation, you may be left with insufficient funds for medical bills, surgeries, and lost income.

In Florida, the statute of limitations for most personal injury cases, including burn injuries, is two years from the date of the incident (per 2023 legal updates).

How do I know if I have a burn injury claim?
If your burn resulted from someone else’s negligence—like a fire, explosion, or scalding incident—you may have a valid claim. A free consultation can clarify your options.
Can I file a burn injury claim for someone else?
Yes. If a loved one is incapacitated or unable to pursue a claim, a legal guardian or family member can act on their behalf.
What evidence proves a burn injury?
Medical records, burn center reports, photographs, expert testimony, and incident documentation are key to proving your case.
How long does a burn injury case take?
Cases can range from months to years, depending on injury severity, case complexity, and whether it goes to trial.
Will I need to go to court?
Not necessarily. Many cases settle out of court, but we’re prepared to litigate if the offer isn’t fair.
What if I had a prior burn or injury?
Pre-existing conditions don’t bar a claim. If the new incident aggravated your condition, you may still recover compensation.
How much is my burn injury case worth?
Value depends on injury extent, medical costs, lost income, and future care needs. A detailed review provides a clearer estimate.
One day, a local gas company was called out to disconnect and cap off the natural gas feeding into a vacant apartment where the stove had been removed. The gas company worker did sloppy work, making several mistakes that were in violation of the applicable building and fire safety codes. As a result, gas fumes leaked out slowly, building up over night.
The following morning, our client, a young construction worker, residing in an adjacent apartment, woke up, and went to light the pilot light on his stove, to make a cup of coffee. A huge explosion and fire ball left him with 3rd degree burns over 70% of his body.
Thanks to our thorough investigation, we were able to document the multiple errors made by the gas company that resulted in this horrible accident, and after some hard fought litigation, a seven-figure settlement in favor of our client resulted.
