What Type of Accidents Can Cause Catastrophic Injuries?

Catastrophic injuries can happen anywhere whether it is on private or public property. Regardless of where the accident happens, the consequences can be devastating. These injuries almost always involve additional long-term or life-long expenses beyond the initial need for medical care.

One way to approach this issue is to develop a life care plan for the injured individual. A life care plan is a comprehensive document that can serve as a road map for the individual to know what to expect and plan for throughout life and make sure all future needs are thought of and planned for to the fullest extent possible. This document can also prove invaluable in preparation for trial. It may be used in settlement negotiations or in presentations to the jury to justify the amount of money damages being sought.

These are some of the types of accidents that can cause catastrophic injuries:

Motorcycle Accidents
Slip and Fall Accidents
