NY Personal Injury Lawyers Concentrating on Burn Injuries
Driven by Results.
Rooted in Compassion.
We Know What a Burn Injury Does to a Family, Because It Happened to Ours.
When Josh Gropper’s brother suffered severe burns, requiring multiple surgeries and amputations, their whole family lived through the pain, the recovery, and the uncertainty that followed. Today, Josh and the team at Gropper & Nejat fight for burn victims in New York the way they’d fight for their own family.
WHY THIS IS PERSONAL
Josh saw firsthand what a serious burn takes from a person and the people who love them. The surgeries. The long nights. The fear about what the future looks like.
That experience shapes how we treat every client. You won’t be a case number here. You’ll be treated like family, with honesty, compassion, and a team that refuses to let the responsible party off the hook.
YOU FOCUS ON HEALING. WE'LL HANDLE THE FIGHT.
A serious burn can mean skin grafts, months of recovery, time away from work, and lasting scars. Meanwhile, insurance companies are already working to pay you as little as possible. We step in so you and your family don’t have to carry this alone. We handle the following burn injury cases:
House and apartment fires:
Many house and apartment fires are caused by faulty wiring or other electrical issues. Often there are broken or missing smoke detectors involved. If an electrician did subpar work or an owner/landlord knew (or should have known) about a problem and failed to fix it, they may be liable.
Premises accidents:
We have successfully represented both adults and children scalded by sudden and unreasonably hot water.
Vehicle fires:
Cars and trucks can catch on fire due to accidents or sometimes from mechanical failures. Defective Products can cause severe injuries to consumers. The designer, manufacturer, or retailer of the product may be liable. Defective products can include auto parts, children’s toys, home appliances, heating pads, flammable clothing and beauty products.
Workplace accidents:
Explosions and toxic chemicals on a job site can cause burn injuries. A workplace fire may involve a worker’s compensation claim in addition to a claim or lawsuit against the manufacturer or distributor of the faulty equipment.
