What Damages Can I Recover for a Burn Injury in Virginia?
Burn injuries are costly to treat and can affect every aspect of your life. You may be out of work for months during recovery. Your burn injuries may take away your ability to work for the rest of your life. The pain caused by burns can be debilitating and distressing and can impact your mental well-being. You deserve compensation for every part of this experience.
We can fight for every expense or loss you incur due to a burn. This may include:
- Medical bills, such as emergency transportation, emergency treatment, surgeries, such as skin grafts or reconstructive surgery, infection treatment, prescription medications, and assistive devices
- Lost wages for any time you needed to take off work for recovery
- Lost earning capacity if your injuries require you to work fewer hours, take lower-paying jobs, or retire from the workforce
- Miscellaneous burn injury-related expenses
- “Pain and suffering” and inconvenience
- Humiliation and other forms of emotional distress
If you lost a loved one due to a burn injury, our team offers our sincere condolences. We understand that you likely aren’t thinking about legal action at a time like this; however, holding the person or entity responsible for your loved one’s passing accountable could give you the compensation you need to grieve without worrying about how you’ll pay your bills and keep your head above water.
We could help you recover compensation for funeral and burial costs, medical bills your loved one incurred before their passing, sorrow and mental anguish, and lost comfort, companionship, society, guidance, and advice.
What Makes the Parrish Law Firm, PLLC Different from Other Virginia Personal Injury Firms?
There are so many personal injury firms looking to grab your attention, but they are only focused on a quick payday. With the Parrish Law Firm, PLLC, you get a firm dedicated to excellent legal care for clients, with the results and history to back up our claims.
We Have Information from Inside the Insurance Industry
The biggest difference is our level of experience and knowledge. Before opening his personal injury law firm, founding attorney Jim Parrish worked for insurance companies, defending them against claims from injured people. Now, he uses that knowledge against those same insurance companies. He knows how these insurance companies act, how they handle cases, and what tactics they use to devalue and deny claims.
For example, we know that insurance companies often use AI to deny hundreds or thousands of claims at the same time. This typically leads to unfair denials, but have no fear; we know how to fight these unfair AI denials and other insurer tricks.
The insurance company knows it can’t take advantage of you with us around.

How Much does It Cost to Get Help from a Burn Injury Attorney?
It costs you nothing upfront to get our help. We want you to focus on your recovery, not on how you’ll put together enough money to afford legal help. You pay no retainer or case review cost and only pay us if we win your case.
There is no risk when you work with our team. We’ll also go over our fee structure so there are no surprises later on.
How Long do I Have to Take Action After a Burn Injury?
All personal injury cases have deadlines, called statutes of limitations. Virginia’s statute of limitations for burn injury lawsuits is two years, per Va. Code § 8.01-243. This time limit applies to both injury and wrongful death lawsuits.
If you fail to file within that time limit, the court will reject your case and you’ll be forced to take whatever you can get from the insurance company. This will likely be much less than you deserve.
We recommend that you call us as soon as possible after a burn injury to ensure we have enough time to build a case before the deadline.
Getting us involved earlier can also make it easier to gather evidence before it disappears or is destroyed. Don’t risk jeopardizing your case. Get help from our Virginia accident attorneys today.
