    Burn Injury Attorney for Mobile Home Park Injury

    Burn injuries can be incredibly traumatizing and can leave the victim with lifelong conditions that can be nearly impossible to recover from fully. From permanent scaring to a loss of vital tissue, burn injuries can cause damages that, if caused by the neglect or misconduct of another, deserve substantial monetary compensation. This is true too for those who have been burned at a mobile home park. Most people don’t expect to suffer severe burn injuries in the comfort of their own home, apartment, or in this case, mobile home. However, these accidents happen, and when they occur as a result of poor maintenance, or a failure to follow building codes, the mobile park owner, or any other landowner should be deemed liable for the ensuing damages.

Those who file a claim with our Los Angeles law firm can receive help from some of the most skilled attorneys with experience in burn injury cases in California and can sue the mobile park owners for negligence.

    The Rights of Mobile Home Park Tenants
    Mobile home park tenants typically own the mobile homes themselves, however, rent the space in which the mobile home resides. Unlike in the past, the mobile homes of today are not quite as mobile as their name implies. Instead, mobile home owners are often left at the mercy of the mobile home park owners that own and run the land the mobile home is placed on. For this reason, mobile home park owners aren’t always responsible for injuries, and more importantly, burn injuries that may occur on and in a mobile home. The laws that define the liability of a mobile home park owner are somewhat complicated, and for this reason, it is essential to the success of your case that you seek representation from a qualified mobile home burn injury lawyer to guide you through the process. However, if it is found that the mobile park owner is found as liable for the damages and that their negligence contributed to the damages, you may be eligible to file a mobile park burn injury lawsuit. With all personal injury lawsuits, it is incredibly important that you can prove the negligence of the defendant. The critical elements to any successful claim of negligence are listed as follows:

    • Duty: The plaintiff (injured or damaged party) must be able to show that the defendant (mobile home park owner) owed a legal duty to the plaintiff under the particular circumstances of the case.
    • Breach: The plaintiff must be able to show that the defendant breached said legal duty through specific actions or failure to act appropriately
    • Causation: The plaintiff must be able to show that the defendant’s actions or lack thereof caused the plaintiff’s injuries
    • Damages: The plaintiff must be able to show that they endured some specific damages. This can usually be shown through the presentation of medical records, a loss of wages, or a loss of potential income.

    Once it is found that the mobile home park owner was negligent in maintaining and ensuring the safety of the park for their tenants, then a lawsuit can be filed against them. Under premises liability, if a patron or tenant is injured on someone’s property as a result of their negligence, then the owner of that property may be found liable for the damages. As stated prior, the laws and regulations that influence mobile home parks are somewhat different from those that influence typical residences. However, regardless of where it occurred, all personal injury lawsuits are expected to follow the statute of limitations. The statute of limitations is essentially the timeline in which a plaintiff or injured party can bring a case to court. If this deadline is ignored or is failed to be met, the injured party could find their case dismissed from court altogether. The statute of limitations tends to vary from state to state and can change depending on the aspects of your case. For instance, in the state of California, a plaintiff has two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit against the party responsible for the damages. There are some nuances and exceptions to the statute of limitations as well, so it is in your best interest that you seek representation from an expert lawyer experienced in handling burn injury cases in California.

    Burn Injuries
    Burn injuries can be incredibly damaging to those unfortunate enough to have to experience them. The medical treatment required for severe burn injuries can also add significant financial stress as well making the road to recovery far more difficult. Burn injuries can be caused by exposure to scalding hot temperatures, exposure to harsh chemicals, and even electrical currents. The process of treating severe burn injuries is incredibly tricky and in almost all cases requires the assistance of a skilled medical professional. Burn injuries are usually rated by degrees of severity. This varying degree of burns are bulleted below for your reference:

    • First-Degree Burns: Typically the mildest, first-degree burns can be often treated with a bit of cold water and burn cream. They often only involve damage to the first layer of skin and are characterized by a slight reddening of the skin. In some, more severe cases, however, it is wise to seek medical treatment for the burn to heal properly.
    • Second-Degree Burns: Second-Degree burns involve damage to the upper layer of skin, as well as the layer of skin beneath. These type of burns cause the skin to blister and become red and sore. Blisters can pop open, giving the burn a wet and glossy appearance. It is essential to keep the area clean and appropriately bandaged to prevent infection. Most second-degree burns heal within two to three weeks, and in more severe cases may require medical attention.
    • Third-Degree Burns: Often referred to as a full thickness burn, this form of burn destroys the outer and inner layer of skin. Third-degree burns are characterized by a charring and browning of the skin. If you experience a third degree burn medical attention should be sought immediately.
    • Fourth-Degree Burns: Fourth-degree burns damage not just the outer and inner layer of skin but also damage deeper tissues like the muscle, tendons, and even bone. These burns are characterized by a black appearance, and in some cases result in a removal of the affected region of the body. Treatment of this burn varies on the severity and location, but all fourth-degree burns should be followed with intensive and immediate medical care.

    If you or a loved one has suffered burn injuries at a mobile home park as a result of the negligence of a mobile home park owner you have every right to file a claim for monetary compensation. While everyone has the right to represent themselves in court, it is in your best interest to seek assistance from an experienced attorney.
