Catastrophic Injuries

Catastrophic Injuries

Catastrophic injuries are some of the most severe injuries that a person can suffer. Catastrophic injuries can lead to permanent disability, long-term pain and suffering, and even death. Years of therapy, medication and ongoing surgeries may be required in order to help the victim fully recover. If you or a loved one has suffered a catastrophic injury, it is important to seek legal help as soon as possible.

Catastrophic injuries often occur as the result of another person’s negligence or recklessness. If you have been injured in an accident that was caused by someone else’s careless actions, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Many times, catastrophic injuries affect family members’ lives in permanent ways, as well. Parents may be unable to go back to work because they must care for their children. Spouses may find the person who comes home from the hospital with them is irrevocably changed from the person they married.
