What Is a Catastrophic Injury?

A “catastrophic injury” typically refers to certain disabling or debilitating injuries that primarily affect the head, brain, neck, and/or spinal cord, but can also result in serious or permanent damage to extremities or internal organs. Catastrophic injuries frequently result in paralysis, and permanent disability, and may ultimately be fatal.

A catastrophic injury could prevent the victim from being able to work or enjoy life as they once did. In many cases, a full recovery to a pre-injury quality of life will not be possible. Many people who suffer catastrophic injuries find themselves unable to work, care for themselves, or provide for their families.

Compensation in Your Catastrophic Injury Case

Suffering a catastrophic injury almost always means incurring significant financial expenses and personal or emotional losses. When you suffer a catastrophic injury due to someone else’s negligence, recklessness, willful acts, or other legal fault, you may be entitled to pursue compensation for damages such as:

  • Past, ongoing, and future medical expenses, including hospital bills, surgery and other medical procedures, physical and occupational rehab, prescription medication, and mobility and other medical equipment
  • Long-term care costs, such as home health aides, home maintenance, or alterations to your home, vehicle, or place of work to accommodate disabilities
  • Lost wages and income for the time you miss from work while recovering from your injuries
  • Lost earning capacity, if your catastrophic injury disables you from returning to full-time work or from performing any gainful employment
  • Pain and suffering, or the physical and emotional anguish caused by your injuries
  • Loss of enjoyment and quality of life, such as due to physical disabilities or disfigurement

In cases involving particularly egregious conduct by the at-fault party, you may also be awarded punitive damages. These damages don’t compensate for any loss but instead punish the at-fault party for their conduct and serve to deter others from engaging in similar conduct in the future.
