A severe burn could have many effects on a person’s life. There would be physical implications. Perhaps the alleged burn victim is unable to do certain physical activities because of the burn. There could also be additional injuries from surgeries that occur. In some severe burn cases, the plastic surgeon would attempt to place skin on top of the burned area in hopes of creating a skin graft. All of the medical procedures cost money and could take a heavy toll on someone who is trying to make a recovery.
