Catastrophic Personal Injury

A catastrophic personal injury is a life-changing event. While you can experience some form of recovery, victims are often never completely whole again and their lives are forever changed. Individuals that suffer catastrophic personal injury require significant physical therapy, advanced medical equipment, sometimes round-the-clock care and frequent medical attention throughout the remainder of their lives.

This type of care creates expenses that result in mounting medical bills that oftentimes insurance will not cover and the injured party cannot afford. That is compounded by having to deal with a potentially debilitating injury which not only affects the injured person, but his or her family as well. If you experience an injury as a result of negligence, you may need to file a personal injury claim to obtain compensation for your pain and suffering, lost wages, as well as current and future medical expenses.
