Legal Question in Personal Injury in California
Do I need a lawyer?
My son received 2nd degree burns on 1/3 of his wrist from 178 degree nacho cheese spilling on it from a local Target food court. They want to settle. Should I retain a lawyer?

I strongly recommend your son to consult with a plastic surgeon and a psychiatrist for need of future medical care such as plastic surgery and depression. We can refer your son to doctors on lien basis. Call us at 213.388.7070 for a free consultation.

As an attorney who focuses on personal injury cases--especially those against a retail store, I am a firm believer that having an experienced advocate can help you negotiate a higher settlement value. That said, Target may be making a fair offer now--I can't really comment on that since I do not know all of the facts. Best of luck to you--and I am sorry about the injury.
