Like other professional service providers, barbers, cosmetologists, hairdressers and beauticians must be state-licensed and competently render services to their clients. Unfortunately, there are serious risks associated with practitioners who are not properly trained or who conduct their businesses in a negligent or reckless manner. These risks include unsanitary conditions and failure to disinfect instruments after each use, leading to the transmission of communicable diseases or infection, and the improper use of products and equipment, resulting in physical harm. Barbers, cosmetologists and other beauty practitioners may also misrepresent their capabilities or falsely advertise their services, again putting their clients at risk.  

 

If you or a loved one has suffered harm as a result of barber, cosmetologist, hairdresser or beautician error, it is crucial to consult with an experienced professional negligence attorney as soon as possible. Our skilled trial lawyers can help you secure all of the compensation to which you may be entitled. This may include compensation for pain and suffering, financial loss, emotional distress and past, current and future medical expenses. In some cases, you may be entitled to punitive damages for another party’s wrongdoing. Our dedicated malpractice attorneys can also help you deal with your insurance company, as well as the insurer of the other party or parties. The insurance companies have lawyers working hard to minimize their payouts; you need a lawyer who will work just as hard for you.
