Catastrophic Injuries

What is a Catastrophic Injury?

A catastrophic injury is a type of injury that is permanent, debilitating and/or causes the injury sufferer immense pain. There are numerous different types of catastrophic injuries that a person may sustain. However, the most common types are brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, burn injuries and amputations. All of these injuries are deemed catastrophic because they present many physical limitations that can impact a person’s quality of life on a permanent basis. These injuries are also labeled catastrophic because they demand ongoing medical treatment from doctors, physical therapists, specialists and psychologists. Without medical treatment, catastrophic injuries may become worse or cause new symptoms to develop. 

Do you need a Catastrophic Injury Attorney?

After people have sustained catastrophic injuries, their first priority will usually be obtaining appropriate medical diagnosis and treatment. Once treatment has been obtained, catastrophic injury sufferers may start thinking about taking legal action. This is especially true in cases where sufferers have learned that their injuries are irreversible, will impact their ability to work or will demand continual medical care. In these cases, injury victims’ financial security may be compromised, which is why they may decide to explore their legal alternatives.
