Thanksgiving meals often involve deep-frying turkeys, crowded kitchens, and hot ovens. After the holiday, many Floridians suffer burn injuries from cooking accidents or defective products.
Common Causes of Post-Thanksgiving Burn Injuries
- Grease fires
- Unsafe turkey fryer setups
- Hot oil spills
- Faulty appliances
- Overloaded kitchen outlets
- Boiling water accidents
- Children touching hot surfaces
Many of these injuries occur during cleanup or reheating leftovers.
When Is Someone Else Legally Responsible?
Liability may fall on:
- The homeowner (unsafe conditions)
- A product manufacturer (defective fryer or appliance)
- A guest who caused the hazard
- A landlord who failed to maintain electrical safety
Under Florida law, burn injury victims can pursue compensation if negligence played a role.
Types of Compensation Available
- ER bills
- Pain management
- Scarring treatment
