The Importance of Hiring a Catastrophic Injury Lawyer

Catastrophic injuries can cost significantly more than minor injuries over the course of the victim’s life. Unfortunately, insurance companies often do not evaluate catastrophic injuries fairly. They may try to get claimants to settle for less than their lifelong injuries are worth. Hiring an experienced attorney prevents this from happening. Your catastrophic injury lawyer can advocate for you during settlement negotiations, proving the true costs of your injury and its serious impacts on your life. Your lawyer can argue for maximum compensation when you need it the most.

Examples of Catastrophic Injuries

Catastrophic injuries can arise in many different incidents, including car crashes, falls, work accidents, violent assaults and medical malpractice. A catastrophic injury could be physical or cognitive. It could be any injury that has a substantial or permanent effect on the victim.
