Examples Of Catastrophic Injuries
While all injuries can lead to medical bills and lost wages, some of the most serious injuries include:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries (SCI)
- Severe burn injuries
- Internal injuries and organ damage
- Amputation and crush injuries
- Paralysis
- Disfigurement
In some cases, injuries never fully heal, leaving victims with permanent injury. For instance, spinal cord trauma often leads to permanent paralysis, while a traumatic brain injury can introduce lifelong physical or cognitive issues.
What Compensation Do You Deserve?
If you have been injured due to someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to significant compensation in the following areas:
- Lost wages
- Reduced earning capacity
- Immediate medical bills
- Long-term medical costs
- Loss of enjoyment in life
- Pain and suffering
- Disability or disfigurement
It is crucial to consider the long-term costs as well as short-term injury expenses. For instance, a spinal cord injury could lead to half a million dollars in care during the first year and result in tens of thousands of dollars in subsequent costs every single year.
Likewise, lost wages during a hospital stay may be substantial, but a long-term reduction in earning capacity could change the course of your career and cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars, depending on your occupation and how long you expect to work.
Our team can help you determine what damages you are facing and what compensation you deserve.
