Catastrophic Injuries

Under the law, a catastrophic injury generally refers to a severe injury that may significantly affect an individual’s ability to work.

Catastrophic injuries include but are not limited to brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, amputations, and internal organ injuries. Catastrophic injuries can occur as the result of nearly any type of accident but are most common following automobile accidents. Catastrophic injury cases are different from standard personal injury cases because they may involve long-term care needs and ongoing financial considerations.

Our team reviews the facts of each case and may communicate with insurance carriers and other parties as part of the process.
