Catastrophic injuries are sudden accidents that drastically alter the physical capacity and/or mental state of a person.

Experienced Carlsbad catastrophic injury lawyers are prepared to assist you during this extremely difficult period. A skilled injury lawyer can zealously fight for the compensation due to you because of the injuries suffered.

Most Common Causes of Catastrophic Injuries
There are many different situations that give rise to catastrophic injuries. Some of the most common causes of devastating injuries are car and truck accidents. Regardless of whether an auto accident was caused by a negligent driver, a distracted driver, a driver driving while intoxicated, or defective car parts, these auto accidents result in a substantial amount of catastrophic injuries.
Accidents at the workplace occur very often, particularly on construction sites. With construction work, the chance of getting injured on the job is three times higher than the average. Falls are the number one cause for catastrophic injuries at construction sites. Construction companies are always under pressure to keep costs down and to keep projects on schedule. As a result, construction companies may cut corners and neglect safety concerns, which is a recipe for catastrophic injuries.
What types of compensatory damages are you entitled to?
Property damage
These damages include any damage to the vehicle and other personal property.
Emotional distress
Damages for emotional pain and the suffering caused by the catastrophic accident, which includes sleeplessness, fear, and anxiety
Lost Wages
A victim could recover lost wages due to the injuries, in addition to estimated future income loss.
Loss of Consortium/Enjoyment
Damages for inability to: pursue hobbies, enjoy everyday activities, enjoy recreational activities, and maintain an intimate relationship with one’s spouse.
Pain & Suffering
These are damages for physical discomfort and pain.
Medical Treatment
This includes expenses such as ambulance services, surgery, rehabilitation, and hospitalization. Damages sought will cover what has already been incurred plus future estimated costs.
