Serious Personal Injury & Catastrophic Injury

Serious personal injury cases typically involve significant or permanent harm, including catastrophic injuries that require extensive medical treatment, rehab, and lifestyle changes. These injuries often occur from car accidentsunsafe premisesdefective products, or industrial incidents, but the common thread is the profound impact on a victim’s quality of life.

Examples of Catastrophic Injuries

  • Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI): Ranging from concussions to severe brain damage; often involve cognitive, behavioral, and physical impairments.
  • Spinal Cord Injuries: Resulting in partial or complete paralysis, such as paraplegia or quadriplegia.

  • Amputations: Sudden loss of limb(s) necessitating prosthetics, ongoing physical therapy, and home modifications.
