Catastrophic Injury Attorney
Injuries resulting in life-altering events must be dealt with using extreme caution. These are called catastrophic injuries and require a lawyer to recover the highest amount of compensation. As a result of the injury, costs to remedy the situation can really add up. That’s why it’s important to find an attorney to help you cover loss of income from work, disability treatment, pain and suffering and care for your dependents.
Catastrophic injuries can happen at any time. Whether you or your family are walking across the street in a big city with heavy traffic, or you’re driving in the car on the road and get hit by a larger vehicle. Catastrophic injuries also tend to happen when playing very violent sports such as football, house fires, explosions or being injured in a personal attack outside of your home. Catastrophic injuries by definition alter a person’s ability to live and work permanently going forward.
These injuries are very traumatic in nature and can end up draining you financially or emotionally, or both. We can help you find a personal injury lawyer who will handle your case with care and be sensitive to the fact that your injuries are very serious.

Before the injuries, you may not have had to deal with long-term health challenges. Rest assured, our attorneys will be happy to seek injury compensation for the damages that you have. You can expect the process to take a significant amount of time if you have multiple severe injuries with very costly financial obligations from the injuries.
Types of catastrophic injuries that you may or may not be aware of are: swimming pool drowning, damage to the spinal cord, traumatic brain injuries suffered in car accidents or sports competition, third degree burns of the skin, injuries to the eyes, amputation of limbs from medical malpractice or complications from doctor negligence, damage to the organs, paralysis, hearing loss, facial disfigurement, chemical burns and serious neck injuries, among other type of injuries.
Remember that catastrophic injuries are likely to cause long-term pain. Many individuals who suffer catastrophic injuries never recover, but some do. An experienced catastrophic injury attorney will seek compensation to pay for medications, necessary surgery, loss of earnings in the future, pain and suffering, all future medical expenses and lost wages due to the injury.
It is not recommended to pursue your own catastrophic injury case without an attorney as the time and resources needed to pursue such a case causes these cases to be complex in nature with very large sums of money at stake.
