Serious injuries can be devastating, often requiring months of intensive medical treatments and therapy to overcome. Conversely, many people never fully recover from catastrophic injuries.

Catastrophic injuries usually leave a person with such profound bodily damage that they suffer life-long consequences. In many cases, their injures lead to temporary or permanent disability. According to Social Security Disability Insurance statistics, 1 out of 4 20-year-olds will become disabled before reaching retirement age.

      • Multiple surgeries and procedures
      • Intensive inpatient therapy
      • Accommodative changes or devices
      • In-home and daily living assistance
      • Loss of income and future wages
  • The injuries have life-long consequences
    • Catastrophic injuries are characteristically associated with;
      • Physical and cognitive deficits, including impaired memory and limited mobility
      • Permanent disfigurement, including severe scarring
      • Loss of function or senses
      • disability
  • Catastrophic injury claims are far more complex
    • Most challenges are due to the high financial cost associated with life-long medical care.
      • Responsible parties, including insurance companies and corporations, seek to minimize any payouts. Serious injury victims may face a team of defense lawyers to recover the compensation they deserve.
      • Catastrophic injuries are also under a tremendous amount of medical scrutiny. Experts, medical records, and treating physicians will undergo intense examination.
      • Due to the value of catastrophic injury cases, there is a greater chance injury victims will have to prove their case at trial.
