Unlike most personal injuries, catastrophic injuries—such as severe burns, amputations and/or damage to the brain or spine—never fully heal and will impact your life permanently. Many people who sustain catastrophic injuries may never be able to return to work, and need special living arrangements or constant medical care. In these cases, you may never be the same, but compensation from a personal injury lawsuit can help make your life or the life of your loved one easier.

How is a Catastrophic Injury Case Different from Other Personal Injury Lawsuits?

A catastrophic personal injury lawsuit is a kind of personal injury claim. However, the nature of the injuries and the kind of accidents typically involved set catastrophic injury cases apart. Usually, catastrophic accidents require an in-depth, time-consuming investigation. Depending on the accident, this investigation could involve multiple experts, dozens of witness testimonies, and significant expenses.

In addition to the investigation, catastrophic injury cases also require a team of economists and medical specialists. These experts determine the extent of the injury and the total financial and economic impact it will have on the rest of your life. Calculations like these are complex, and take into account everything from the cost of your medication to relocation expenses as well as inflation and other economic factors for years to come.

Typically, individuals who suffer a catastrophic injury will be seeking millions of dollars in compensation so they can pay for lifelong care. However, with so much money at stake, insurance companies and other defendants will do everything they can to avoid paying. They hire experts of their own as well as legal teams who will use all aspects of state and federal law to mount a defense.

For all of these reasons, you need a catastrophic injury lawyer with experience filing successful lawsuits for these kinds of accidents. At our law firm, we have the resources necessary to invest in a thorough investigation. In addition, our attorneys never back down from a fight in the courtroom. We are prepared to stand up for you in front of a judge and jury and protect you against the tactics commonly used by the defense.
