What is a Catastrophic Injury?

While any injury can be serious, not all injuries are considered catastrophic. A catastrophic injury results in permanent disability, disfigurement, or a significantly reduced life expectancy. These injuries are often life-altering and require extensive medical treatment and ongoing care.

Some examples of catastrophic injuries include:

  • Severe burns
  • Amputations
  • Paralysis
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Brain injuries
  • Organ damage
  • Multiple bone fractures
  • Blindness
  • Deafness

These are just a few examples of the types of injuries that are considered catastrophic. If you or someone you love suffered a serious injury, it is important to speak to an attorney about your rights and options.

Common Causes of Catastrophic Injuries

Catastrophic injuries can occur in a variety of ways. In many cases, they are the result of someone else’s negligence or wrongful conduct. When this is the case, the injured victim can file a personal injury claim against the at-fault party and seek compensation for their damages.

Some of the most common causes of catastrophic injuries include:

  • Motor vehicle accidents
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Truck accidents
  • Pedestrian accidents
  • Bicycle accidents
  • Construction accidents
  • Workplace accidents
  • Defective products
  • Medical malpractice
  • Birth injuries
  • Violent crimes

These are just a few examples of the many ways in which catastrophic injuries can occur. If you believe that someone else’s negligence or wrongful conduct caused you or your loved one to suffer a catastrophic injury, reach out to our Pearl City catastrophic injury attorneys today to learn more about your legal rights and options.
