Catastrophic Injuries

 

Catastrophic injuries are usually described as those that have a severe and long-term impact on the victim’s life. These injuries include:

  • Loss of limbs
  • Paralysis
  • Severe burns
  • Back and neck traumas
  • Brain injuries
  • Death

If you or a loved one has been the victim of a catastrophic injury, it is critically important to hire an attorney who is knowledgeable and experienced in this area of personal injury law. At Katz, Friedman, Eagle, Eisenstein, Johnson & Bareck, we have successfully prosecuted thousands of injury cases. Our attorneys are leaders in this field and have a long history of winning maximum damages for our clients.

 

Damages for Catastrophic Injuries

Catastrophic injuries often require expensive medical treatment and long-term care. In order to obtain just compensation, it’s important to hire an attorney who is familiar with your type of injury or your loved one’s type of injury. For example, severe burn injuries often require multiple reconstructive surgeries and rehabilitation over many years. They can result in permanent disability. It is important that your lawyer understands exactly what the road ahead entails and can argue on your behalf for compensation to cover past, present and future damages.

Our firm has successfully handled a wide variety of catastrophic injury cases. Our attorneys have extensive knowledge of the challenges victims and their families have faced in the past and will face in the future. We seek payments for medical expenses, lost wages (past, present and future), disability, pain and suffering, mental anguish and loss of normal life enjoyment. We use every resource available to ensure that our clients receive the maximum possible recovery and have the financial means to regain as much of a normal life as possible.
