Catastrophic Injury

Catastrophic injury refers to serious and permanent injury. It may include disfigurement, head trauma, paralysis or quadriplegia, nerve or spinal cord damage, or even chronic pain. Catastrophic injuries last for extended periods of time, often forever, and therefore must be valued to account for this extended period of time.

It goes without saying that the more catastrophic the injury, the more expensive the case is to prosecute. Our firm is well established to handle all types of catastrophic injuries. Our firm has relationships with medical providers in all areas of specialization, including neurology, orthopedics, gynecology and obstetrics, and emergency medicine, and with experts such as life planners to provide opinions on liability, causation, and the extent of damages.

Catastrophic cases are ripe for trial and usually cannot be settled for reasonable value without anticipating the case be tried before a jury. We sympathize with our clients and do everything in our power to ensure justice and that they obtain full and fair value for their catastrophic injuries.
