Brooklyn, NY Catastrophic Injury Lawyer

With many injuries, individuals can make a full recovery or at least be in a position where their injury doesn’t greatly impact their life. Catastrophic injuries are different because they usually mean long-term impairment or even permanent damage. Such injuries may require ongoing rehabilitation, medical care, and physical and emotional support. 

Injuries like spinal cord damage or traumatic brain injuries can leave a person unable to work ever again, meaning they require permanent disability. Issues like severe burns and disfigurements can also fall under catastrophic injuries due to them being permanent and their emotional impact.

Catastrophic injuries can have many causes, but regardless of the cause, a victim has every right to pursue compensation when the injury occurred due to another party’s negligence or recklessness. A main problem that victims of these injuries run into is that insurance adjusters may only offer a settlement that covers part of their immediate needs. 

After all the hospital stays, surgeries, and physical rehabilitation, most catastrophic injuries simply don’t go away. While these injuries may improve, lifelong care can end up being more expensive in the long run, even if the care itself isn’t as extensive as it was in the beginning. Our Brooklyn catastrophic injury lawyers can make sure that any settlement offered is a fair reflection of your immediate and future needs.
