Catastrophic Injury/Trauma
The trauma experienced from a catastrophic injury is severe, long lasting, and requires extensive medical care. Usually the damage is permanent, although in some cases recovery is possible. Examples of catastrophic injuries include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, severe burns, brain damage, coma, amputation, and paralysis, to name a few. Victims of catastrophic injury, due to the nature of the trauma they experience, are dependent for daily support because their disability makes them incapable of caring for themselves.
The cost of caring for someone who has suffered a catastrophic injury is sometimes astronomical and commonly involves: medical and hospital care, structural changes in the home, transportation provisions to accommodate a wheelchair or other equipment, medical treatment for rehabilitation, and daily care assistance.
If the catastrophic injury was a result of another's negligence, then you may be entitled to receive compensation. The tremendous burden of medical care makes it a necessity to obtain personal injury compensation, if at all possible.
At the Budin Law Offices we are effective in preparing catastrophic injury cases, which require expert medical and legal evaluation to properly determine the extent of injury damage and accurately estimate future medical and daily supportive care.
