Area of Expertise: Catastrophic Injury

Catastrophic Injury Lawyer

Catastrophic injuries are those that occur suddenly and result in tragic damage. To qualify medically as a catastrophic injury, certain conditions must be met: living in a vegetative state for at least a month following the incident, experiencing a severe upper or lower disability for six months or more after the incident, or enduring a lower moderate disability for over a year post-incident.

These injuries are devastating and can significantly disrupt an individual’s life and can impede their ability to work and enjoy activities they once loved. Such injuries can include spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, amputations, severe burns, disabling limb fractures, organ damage, and hearing or vision loss.

From a devastating car accident to a work-place injury, you could experience an accident that alters your quality of life forever. Activities that can result in catastrophic injury are:

• Trucking Accidents

• Product defects

• Medical Malpractice

• Slipping and/or falling

These injuries are not only devastating on a physical and emotional level but also present unique legal challenges. Catastrophic injury lawsuits are complex, requiring a deep understanding of not only the law, but also medical terminology, future care needs, and the calculation of damages for both economic and non-economic losses.

The severity of these injuries often means victims will need long-term or even life-long medical care, rehab, and support. In essence, when dealing with catastrophic injuries, you’re not just facing a medical challenge, but a legal one as well. And while the journey may be difficult, with the right legal aid, victims can secure the resources they need to adapt and move forward.
