The question is did the victim contribute to the burning of herself just by being in the bar? No one would expect to be exposed to being burned by going in a bar. Who caused the accident? The patron who lit the menu obviously. The question is, did the bartender continue to serve this patron if he was obviously drunk? If so, the bar is liable. In any event, the patron who lit the menu is also liable. The Bacardi firm has no clear liability. Some posters are right, the lawyer is going after the deepest pocket. However, look at this from the victim's viewpoint. She is scarred for life. How would you feel if this happened to you through no fault of your own?
