Firefighter Injured in a New York House Fire
Calendar icon March 30, 2021 | Reading Time: 2 min

A firefighter was injured while trying to put out a New York house fire early on Thursday, March 18.

The fire started at about 1:30 a.m. in the Bay Shore area of Islip on Long Island. The blaze was so massive that crews from four departments responded to the call.

One firefighter sustained unspecified injuries while he was battling the fire and was taken to the hospital for treatment. There are no details about how the firefighter was injured or the degree of the injuries.

The cause of the New York house fire is still investigated.

Burn injuries can be devastating and may take a long time to heal. And even after the healing, the person could still have health issues. They may be unable to earn and enjoy simple life activities.

Even though most people connect burn injuries with fires, they could easily occur after an explosion of chemicals, using electricity tools, vapors and hot water. 

If your injuries occurred because of someone else’s negligence, or as a result of your work, make sure to seek legal assistance as soon as possible.

The attorney will help you while you are recovering from your injuries. They will review your case, gather evidence, file a lawsuit, seek a compensation claim on your behalf, and negotiate for the settlement. Don’t go into this process on your own; the insurance company will work with lawyers and so should you. This way you can be sure that you’ll receive the right settlement that will cover your medical expenses, lost wages but also coverage for pain and suffering. Some people with severe burn injuries may even seek a loss of future earnings coverage.

The personal attention I received was excellent; they were always available to help with questions and concerns and put me at ease in the unknown territory I found myself in. I highly recommend them to anyone needing representation. A huge thank you to them for all they accomplished for me!

  • Cellino Law and more specifically my attorney, Gregory V. Pajak, Managing Attorney, and as a whole the Cellino Law Firm and its organization. This is by far one of the most professional law firms and attorney I have ever engaged with and retained in my 35 years. The level of professionalism goes beyond words, the care and constant engagement with me as the client was touching. I was never ever just treated as simply a CASE with potentially a significant dollar number attached to my file. I was engaged regularly, Tracey (Ass’t) and Greg always made sure to remain constant, as well as consistent in overseeing that my case was handled properly and that it did matter in many ways - ensuring that the end result(s) would be fair and reasonable to my case/injury. The regular follow-up calls were very satisfying, knowing that you’re involved in your case matters significantly AND always. One of my main items to recognize Cellino Law and Gregory is that whenever I called, I was able to get through to speak directly to my Lawyer and he would answer any if not all of my questions in a very professional and genuinely caring manner. I always felt cared for and protected legally and more importantly, I was made feel as a human being that was being cared for and always keeping me abreast of all matters connected to the case. There was never a point I felt let down, on the contrary -the level of service was “STELLAR”. Greg is the consummate professional, a ‘role model’, if you will, for what other attorneys should strive to become when dealing with their clients.
