Such risks are widespread including public places like restaurants, theater halls, and public transport systems or homes including apartment fires.

 

When someone else is to blame or partly at fault for a serious burn injury, sometimes the only justice that can be sought is through a civil compensation claim.

Personal injury laws in Texas are based in torts. Broadly speaking a tort is harmful act or failure to act for which the law provides necessary remedies. Burn injuries suffered due to negligence on the part of others can be a tort. Hence, generally, the victim has the right to sue whoever commits a tort for damages.
