Catastrophic Car Accident Injuries
For over 40 years we have represented people who have been hurt and the families of people killed in tragic and avoidable circumstances. We’ve represented people coping with the death of a loved one and people struggling with serious neurological injuries like traumatic brain injury, fibromyalgia and complex regional pain syndrome. We’ve represented people with serious orthopedic injuries like spinal cord injury, nonunions and mal-unions and by trauma induced psychological injuries like depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
We have the experience, resources and skill to represent people who have sustained all types of catastrophic injuries, including:
Back and spine injuries
Back and spine cord injuries are caused by damage to the vertebrae, ligaments or to the discs of the spinal column or by injury to the spinal cord itself. Depending on the type of injury and the severity of the injury, back injuries can lead to permanent pain and disability. Roughly 1 in 3 people who experience a spine injury are re-hospitalized one or more times during any given year following the injury.
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
A traumatic brain injury occurs when an external force causes damage to the brain. While some people who sustain a traumatic brain injury are able to recover, for others, a traumatic brain injury causes permanent changes in a person’s ability to think, work and interact with the world.
Paraplegia or quadriplegia
Quadriplegia and paraplegia are the terms for when someone sustains a paralyzing injury to their limbs—often due to a traumatic injury to the spinal cord. People with paralyzing injuries like quadriplegia and paraplegia will frequently require extensive, life-long assistance with activities of daily life including, transportation, cooking, eating, cleaning, and hygiene.
