How Alaska law treats burn-injury claims

Shared fault

Alaska follows pure comparative negligence: damages are reduced by the injured person's share of fault but are never barred by it.

Alaska Stat. § 09.17.060

Damage caps

Alaska is unusual in capping non-economic damages in ordinary injury cases, not just malpractice: the greater of $400,000 or the person's life expectancy in years multiplied by $8,000, rising to the greater of $1,000,000 or life expectancy multiplied by $25,000 for severe permanent physical impairment or disfigurement — a threshold serious burn injuries frequently meet.

Alaska Stat. § 09.17.010(b)-(c)
