Our Burn Injury Case Results
Primary healthcare to treat a burn injury ranges from about $3000 to $5000 per day in America. That initial treatment accounts for only about 23% of all medical costs a burn patient may face. In all, burn injury treatment may cost hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars over the course of a patient’s life. This is why our Midland-Odessa burn injury attorneys take our case results so seriously. We know we need to secure maximum compensation for every client to pay for their initial treatment, surgery, therapy, ongoing care, and so much more.
The following are a few of our most notable burn injury case results:
- We secured a $92.7 million settlement for a man who was severely burned at work. This set a record for the highest settlement in a Texas burn injury case.
- We earned an $87 million settlement for a worker who suffered serious burn injuries in a fire. This was the highest settlement in a Texas burn injury case, before we beat our own record.
- We won a record-setting $39.7 million verdict for a client who was seriously burned in a dust fire and explosion at a plywood plant in Corrigan, Texas.
- We earned a $12.5 million settlement for a refinery worker in Corpus Christi who experienced electrical burns and other serious injuries.

Identifying Cause & Liability in a Midland-Odessa Burn Injury Case
We will have a few main goals in taking on a burn injury case. First, we want to make sure our client is safe and is getting the right treatment. Then, we will work to investigate what caused our client’s injuries in the first place. Was it a defective product? An employer who failed to implement proper safety practices? A drunk driver? Working with accident reconstruction specialists, investigators, and experts in fire safety, fire investigation, civil engineering, and other relevant fields, we will build a compelling case that identifies cause.
Once cause is established, our Midland-Odessa burn injury lawyers can determine what party (or parties) should be held legally responsible. We will also identify all potential sources of compensation. Building a strong burn injury claim will help us at the negotiating table or in the courtroom—wherever the case needs to go to secure the best possible outcome.
Burn Injury FAQ
Who can be sued in a burn injury lawsuit?
The liable party in a burn injury lawsuit may be an individual or a business. One or more defendants can be named, depending on what caused the plaintiff’s injuries. The manufacturer of a dangerous consumer product, an oil company that put profits over safety, a truck driver who made an unsafe lane change—these are all examples of potentially at-fault parties. A complete investigation into your burn injury case can reveal who is accountable.
What is my burn injury case worth?
The value of your case will depend on how serious your injuries are and the impact they have had and will have on your life. The purpose of a burn injury case is to help a survivor rebuild their life, as close as possible to where it was before the injury occurred. Any resulting settlement or verdict should cover all of the medical treatment associated with the burn injury, any lost earnings, loss of future earnings, ongoing treatment or therapy, and also emotional trauma like pain and suffering. This could result in a recovery of hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars. If a Midland-Odessa burn injury attorney at our firm takes your case, you can rest assured that our team will do everything we can to maximize your compensation.
