Catastrophic injury cases deserve Justice

Catastrophic injuries arise in many different forms. They may include brain injuries, neurological injuries, severe burns, amputations, severe spinal cord injuries, blindness, hearing loss, injuries to nerves in the torso, arms, and shoulders (brachial plexus), or multiple fractures which all may potentially lead to death. The financial and emotional effects to a victim can be enormous. Often times such injuries result in a lifetime of medical treatment and continuous life-care support. Injured victims that survive may also face years or decades of lost income because of disability. Such injuries can lead to drastic changes in the lives of individuals and the whole family surrounding the victim.

Investigation

Catastrophic injury or death cases will most likely require enormous and costly case preparation which may include one or all of the following: extensive accident scene investigation, high tech photography, in depth witness interviews and preparation, detailed medical records retrieved; experts in the medical, economic, reconstruction and many other fields may be interviewed and/or retained. State of the art demonstrative evidence may also be compiled, including computer simulations; medical illustrations; flow charts on damages; scaled models; and day-in-the-life video projections. Case preparation may be followed by a comprehensive legal and factual investigation.

Damages

Pursuing all sources of recovery and every form of damage is a necessity to a deceased victim’s family or to an injured victim who faces potentially staggering health and life-care costs and lost income. There may be many different parties who bear responsibility for these accidents. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate all potential defendants and parties at fault for the accident so that enough insurance is discovered and so that justice can be served.

Compensation

Although Cliff Roberts cannot guarantee a recovery in every case, he will seek the maximum fair amount of compensation for your case if he accepts it. Money damages that are generally sought for catastrophic accident victims include money for a victim’s past and future: physical and mental pain and suffering, mental anguish, disfigurement, physical and mental impairment, medical expenses, loss of earnings, and prejudgment and post judgment interest. Depending on the circumstances other damages may be available and pursued.

Deadline

The statute of limitations (deadline for filing a claim) for filing a catastrophic injury lawsuit varies by State and depends on the specific facts of each case. If you do not file your claim by the deadline, you will most likely lose your right to recover any money for your claim.
