Legal Question in Constitutional Law in New Jersey
Child injury
I live in a rented house and have asking the landlord who lives in the basement to fix the Stove as it has problems.
He did not fix it and took it very lightly even after several complaints.
Thursday my son was turning the stove on and a big flame came out and burned his face second degree burns. What can I do legally?

You may have a case against the landlord for failing to correct a known defect. You should give our offices a call to discuss your options and recovery.

This is a classic case of a negligent landlord who was forewarned of a defect but failed to act accordingly. See attorney about obtaining compensation for your son's injury and future medical expenses.
