Examples of Catastrophic Injuries

Catastrophic injuries are severe and life-altering, causing permanent disabilities and often requiring extensive medical treatment and long-term care. These injuries can have a profound impact on the victim’s life and the lives of their loved ones.

Some common types of catastrophic injuries include:

Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
Spinal cord injuries
Amputations
Severe burn injuries
Multiple or compound fractures
Organ damage
Vision and hearing loss
Severe soft tissue damage

If your injury leads to lasting impairments, disfigurement, and other severe effects on your life, you might have a catastrophic injury claim.

Why You Need an Experienced Lawyer for Your Catastrophic Injury Case

When someone else causes your injuries, they should also be responsible for compensating you for your losses, often through their insurance company. However, claims involving catastrophic injuries can be particularly complicated because the damages can be extensive.

Often, insurance companies will challenge the severity of a disabling injury to try to reduce your claim payout. You need a skilled injury lawyer handling your case who can:

Present your medical records and other evidence to prove the severity of your injuries
Utilize medical and economic experts to calculate your complete damages, including your estimated future losses and expenses
Prove that your injury is permanent and disabling
Account for all the possible costs of your injuries
Prove the responsible party’s liability for your injuries
Challenge any tactics the insurance company uses to try to minimize your compensation

Getting full financial recovery is critical when you have a catastrophic injury. The costs of such an injury will bankrupt many people, and you do not need such financial concerns when you are already dealing with a severe injury due to another’s negligence. After your physical condition is stable enough, always seek the right legal assistance.
