While minor burns can be treated at home and are usually of little consequence, more serious burns require ongoing and expensive treatments. As most people know, burns are some of the most painful injuries a person can experience.
Burned areas of the body are also prone to infection, so proper care and treatment is not just about limiting pain or scarring, but also about preventing life-threatening infections. Add all of this up and burns become incredibly expensive in more ways than one.
If you were burned because of someone else’s negligence, a Boise burn injury lawyer from Craig Swapp & Associates can help you seek compensation for your expenses and damages.
Common Types of Burns
Obviously, burns are the result of coming into contact with something hot, right? Not always. Chemical burns can be just as painful as burns sustained from heat and excessive temperatures. Since chemicals are used more frequently now than ever before, chemical burns are becoming increasingly more common.
Many burns happen due to defective products that explode or otherwise injure consumers. Car accidents, cooking accidents, house fires , and many other accident types can lead to a significant burn injury that could change your life. A Boise burn injury lawyer from our firm can help you determine just who or what was responsible.
Treating Burns
Treatments for burns vary by degree—literally. The one thing that the treatments all have in common is preventing infection. The skin is your body’s first line of defense against the elements. It is an organ that protects the underlying tissue from exposure to the environment.
Burns that become infected can put you at real risk for more serious illnesses and injuries—and in some cases, death. Medical care in the form of wound cleaning, application of antibiotic creams, and even skin grafts can all make the costs pile up. Even the most minor burn can become a severe injury.
An experienced Boise burn injury lawyer from our office will be able to examine the details and the severity of your burn, thereby ensuring your settlement takes everything into account.

Client Reviews
“I was concerned with all the paperwork”
Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"
My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"
I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"
I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"
My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
