Our client suffered excruciating second-degree burns to her buttock and upper thigh after slipping and falling on a negligently maintained kitchen floor. The sudden fall caused a nearby pot of boiling water to tip and spill directly onto her, resulting in painful burn injuries, permanent scarring, and emotional trauma.
Injury Details & Treatment:
The incident led to second-degree thermal burns that required emergency medical care, wound debridement, and prolonged dressing changes. The injuries left permanent discoloration and scarring, affecting our client’s mobility, self-esteem, and daily comfort. Plastic surgery consultation was also required for potential scar revision.
