What is considered a catastrophic injury?

An injury is considered catastrophic if it seriously impacts the victim's life. Catastrophic injuries may cause permanent disability or disfigurement.

FAQs on Catastrophic Workplace Injuries

• What compensation is available for catastrophic injury victims? 
  The compensation that you are owed from the party that caused you to suffer a catastrophic injury will probably include medical costs, lost wages, property damage repair costs, and non-economic damages like your pain and suffering. This list of damages is similar to the damages in most any personal injury case. The key difference is that the value of those damages in a catastrophic injury case can be monumental. If your injury has forever changed your life and livelihood, then the compensation you are owed should reflect as much.
• Defining Catastrophic Injuries in Legal Terms 
  An injury can be considered catastrophic in medical and legal contexts if it permanently stops the victim from finding gainful employment. A catastrophic injury can also be classified as one that causes any disability that lasts for longer than 90 days or that could cause the victim’s passing. The definition of a catastrophic injury is important because it can steer the conversations about your case and damages.
• Possibilities of Recovery After a Catastrophic Injury 
  Most catastrophic injuries are incurable and cannot be fully treated, even with the best that modern medicine can offer. For example, brain injuries and spinal cord injuries are common types of catastrophic injuries, and neither can heal well or at all. However, it is possible for someone to recover from certain catastrophic injuries enough to feel as if they are leading a normal or comfortable life.
• Insurance Challenges in Catastrophic Injury Claims 
  Insurance companies do not like paying damages to claimants under any circumstances. The higher the damages, though, the more likely the insurer will put up a fight and try to avoid paying anything. For this reason, if you file a catastrophic injury claim, then it is almost guaranteed that the insurance company will push back.
