Monterey Catastrophic Injury Lawyer
The American Medical Association defines a catastrophic injury as any severe trauma to the spine, spinal cord, or brain. These injuries can include fractures, dislocations, or herniation. They are often among the most serious injuries sustained and can occur from a wide range of activities such as sporting activities or high-speed collisions.
Catastrophic injuries are often extremely traumatic, not just physically but also mentally and emotionally as well. It is not uncommon for severe lifestyle changes to result from an injury of this nature. Individuals and families are often only able to overcome these powerful life events with the help of a comprehensive care team which could include medical, mental health, restorative specialist, spiritual counseling, and many other unique types of support across a multifaceted care team.
Compassionate Assistance to Get the Compensation You Need
In the best scenarios, these injuries are severe but do not result in any long term disability or changes to quality of life. In more challenging cases, long term care needs can be immense resulting in truly staggering costs associated with maintaining and surviving.
Common catastrophic injuries include:
- Head injuries
- Brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Paralysis
- Loss of limbs
In all cases, catastrophic injuries are severe. If you or someone you know has been hurt in this way, speak with a lawyer to discuss any financial compensation to be sought on the injured person’s behalf.
