A catastrophic injury can leave a person suffering from long-term and even permanent disabilities. Unfortunately, catastrophic injuries often change people’s lives, and many people struggle to work, maintain relationships, and even enjoy life as they did before their accident. Each catastrophic injury is unique and presents its own set of challenges.

However, if you have been injured in a catastrophic injury, a catastrophic injury lawyer may be able to help you by filing a personal injury lawsuit to help ease the financial and emotional burdens that often accompany catastrophic injuries.

If you or a loved one has suffered a catastrophic injury because of someone else’s recklessness, carelessness, or misconduct, you could be eligible for compensation, contact an experienced and dedicated San Diego catastrophic injury lawyer today.

Catastrophic Injuries Legally Defined

A catastrophic injury is defined under 42 U.S. Code § 3796b as one that “permanently prevents an individual from performing any gainful work.”  A catastrophic injury can derail a person’s life, career, relationships, and even family. Common catastrophic injuries include:

  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Traumatic brain injuries
  • Burn injuries
  • Internal organ damage
  • Multiple bone fractures
  • Amputations

A person who has sustained a catastrophic injury will often require extensive emergency medical care and treatment, ongoing medical care, rehabilitative treatments and therapy, and often long-term and permanent assistance.

In some cases, a person may never truly recover from their injuries, and many catastrophic injury victims struggle financially and personally after their accidents.

A San Diego catastrophic injury lawyer could help an injured person who is recovering from their injuries support themselves.

Causes of Catastrophic Injuries

A catastrophic injury can happen in an instant, and change the course of a person’s life. Catastrophic injuries are often caused by unforeseen events such as fires, acts of violence, or dangerous sporting events. Some of the other common causes of catastrophic injuries include:

  • Car crashes
  • Bus accidents
  • Truck accidents
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • ATV accidents
  • Boating accidents
  • Workplace accidents
  • Construction accidents

Unfortunately, a person who has sustained a catastrophic injury will often have to undergo extensive medical procedures, and may have to be under the long-term care of a doctor or rehabilitation facility.

Potential Compensation for a Catastrophic Injury

Determining the overall cost and impact of a catastrophic injury is not always an easy task, and it often requires the help of many professionals. A San Diego catastrophic injury lawyer can work with doctors, physical therapists, vocational counselors, accountants, and other professionals to help assess the extent of a person’s injuries both physically and financially.

Whenever a person has been injured because of another persons’ negligence they are generally entitled to recover for their injuries, and it is important that they understand how a San Diego catastrophic injury lawyer will approach a case.

California follows a pure contributory negligence system, for all personal injuries including catastrophic injuries. Under a pure contributory negligence system, everyone who has been injured because of another’s negligence is entitled to recover for their injuries.

Therefore, even if a party is 99 percent at fault for a catastrophic accident and injury, that person may still be entitled to recover for the one percent of fault shared by the other person or people involved in the accident.
