What Is a Catastrophic Injury?
A catastrophic injury is a serious injury that changes your life for the worse. In fact, it may change every part of your life, from your work to your personal relationships, to how you function on any given day.
Catastrophic injury examples include:
- Brain injuries
- Burn injuries
- Limb loss, or amputation
- Hearing and vision loss
- Neck and back injuries
- Dog bites/animal attack injuries
- Spinal cord injuries, such as paralysis
Illnesses can also be catastrophic. For example, if you developed cancer because you were exposed to a toxic chemical in a product, you may be entitled to compensation. You may also have a case if someone else’s negligence caused you to develop a mental illness, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Common Causes of Catastrophic Injuries
There are almost countless accidents that can lead to a catastrophic injury:
- Accidents involving medical malpractice
- Bicycle accidents
- Boat accidents
- Car accidents
- Defective product accidents
- Motorcycle crashes
- Pedestrian accidents
- Slip and fall accidents on dangerous properties
- Truck crashes
- Workplace accidents
At Michles & Booth, our Florida catastrophic injury attorneys accept cases involving all of the above accidents and more.
Compensation for a Catastrophic Injury
If you suffered a catastrophic injury, you could be entitled to compensation for any damages you incurred, such as:
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages and benefits
- Future lost earnings
- Pain and suffering, physical and mental
- Property damage, including to a vehicle
Every injury is different, which means every catastrophic injury case is different. Our Florida catastrophic injury lawyers are happy to provide a free evaluation of your case.
Don’t Miss Your Chance to Recover Compensation
The state of Florida only gives catastrophic injury victims so much time to file a case. The deadline, or statute of limitations, varies depending on the root cause of the injury and who the case is being made against. Don’t lose out on your rightful compensation. Consult a lawyer at Michles & Booth. We are knowledgeable in navigating personal injury protection (PIP) insurance, and we also know when a case must be handled through a jury trial instead.
Michles & Booth offers free consultations with no strings attached. And should you choose to work with us, you won’t have to worry about breaking the bank. We won’t collect a cent from you if we don’t win your case.
