Common types of burn injuries include:
A thermal burn can occur due to direct contact between the skin and flames, hot surfaces, hot liquids, or steam. Thermal burns make up over 80% of burn injuries that require medical attention.
Chemical burns occur when the skin comes into contact with dangerous chemicals, such as:
Radiation can cause burns similar to a sunburn. These burns can result from external beam radiation therapy and are a common side effect of cancer treatment. However, radiation burns can carry a risk of infection, which can require prompt medical attention.
An electrical burn can occur when the body makes contact with electricity. When a person comes into contact with electricity, the current will travel throughout the body causing damage to the internal organs.
Burns are classified in degrees, depending on how deep the burns penetrate the surface of the skin.
Burn degrees include:
First-degree burns affect the epidermis, which is the outermost layer of the skin. These burns are considered minor.
Also known as partial thickness burns, second-degree burns penetrate the top layer of skin into the next layer, known as the dermis. Most types of second-degree burns will not require treatment provided by a medical professional.
Full-thickness burns destroy both the epidermis and dermis. These burns can cause charred skin and require prompt medical attention.

I’m a 9/11 first responder, and I can honestly say that Parker Waichman made me feel like they had my best interest in my VCF case. Ms Candalino & Ms Viti are top notch in my book. I was constantly informed on the status of my case. I would definitely recommend Parker Waichman LLP to family and friends.
