As is the case for countless unfortunate Florida catastrophic injury victims, your entire life can change in the blink of an eye. Catastrophic injuries of all types can strike unannounced and unanticipated, wreaking havoc on your personal and professional life and costing thousands, even millions, to treat.
What is a catastrophic injury? Simply put, it is an injury that has long-term consequences and/or requires significant medical treatment. The causes can vary from a gunshot wound to a car accident, medical malpractice to head trauma. Common catastrophic injuries include traumatic brain injury (TBI), injury to the joints, such as the shoulder or knee, neurological disorders or spinal cord injury, bone fractions, or severe burns.
Though catastrophic injuries can be quite diverse, they have a common thread - most require extensive and expensive medical treatment involving diagnostic tests, hospitalization, and specialist intervention. Often, extensive physical therapy, vocational rehabilitation, and psychiatric treatment are required to make any semblance of a recovery, and many victims never recover at all. Rather, they face shorter life spans or lives dependent on others. That's why it's so important to seek justice for Florida catastrophic injury victims, who may lose their quality of life in an instant due to the negligence or lack of concern of another.
The responsible party in a catastrophic injury case is not always evident. For example, a collision with a truck might seem to involve only two parties, but manufacturers, trucking companies, insurers, and other third parties could be responsible for the accident as well. In addition, such accidents usually generate a plethora of paperwork, and an extensive medical investigation and review of records must occur in order to establish the evidence a victim needs to claim compensation in court.
