Types of Catastrophic and Serious Injury

May 4, 2011

Catastrophic injuries include all types of injuries that occur suddenly and cause long-term or permanent injury. It is common for catastrophic injuries to damage the central nervous system, which may in turn damage other bodily systems. Examples of catastrophic injuries are accidental amputation or dismemberment injury, brain injury, eye injury, foot injury, multiple bone fractures, serious head trauma, severe burn injuries, and spinal cord injuries says Los Angeles Personal Injury Lawyer Steven Peck.

Catastrophic injuries like brain injuries and spinal cord injuries are serious, complex injuries that usually have long-term or life-long implications. Victims of catastrophic injuries will likely require long-term medical care, and may never be able to work again. In addition to the physical pain and emotional impact of catastrophic injuries, the financial consequences may be overwhelming. An injury claim can provide compensation for medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering.
