The devastating consequences of a fire injury

Victims of a fire that resulted from another's negligence may not only suffer severe burn injuries and emotional distress, they may lose nearly all their possessions. Guests may lose property, such as their cars.

When determining liability, courts will look at the steps taken to allow residents and occupants to safely escape from a fire. This includes adequate smoke detection devices and passable access to stairways. Children are especially susceptible to being overcome or made ill by fumes and smoke, even when the open flame from the fire is not in their immediate presence.
