More significant than a typical injury, catastrophic injuries have an enormous impact on the individuals who incur them, as well as those around those individuals.
These types of injuries are caused by a variety of circumstances and often include significant damage to:

A catastrophic injury lawsuit and eventual settlement seek to compensate victims and their families for these lifelong disabilities, rehabilitation, and medical bills.
There are a wide range of different types of personal injuries that could have been prevented, whether that’s in the workplace, a care setting or on the road.
Depending on the type, location, and severity of your injury, there are many different types of paralysis that you could suffer from. It can be general (all over your body), localized (affects a small part of your body such as face or vocal cords), or it can affect a single limb or series of limbs.
While there are many ways to become paralyzed, including strokes and other neurological issues, there are very specific injuries that cause paralysis after a car accident. Paralysis is caused when something interrupts the connection between your brain and your limbs. Therefore, any injury that affects your brain, neck, or spinal cord has a greater risk of causing paralysis.
The symptoms of paralysis are fairly easy to recognize. Apart from the obvious loss of function in your limbs, here are some symptoms:
How can I handle my own auto accident claim if I have been paralyzed?
How can I calculate the settlement value for my paralysis?
How do I file an insurance claim with the at-fault driver if I have been paralyzed?
Should I expect to get medical treatment for my paralysis in a hit-and-run accident?
Can I claim pain and suffering in my paralysis settlement?
How can I cope with unexpected medical bills for my paralysis?
How do paralysis auto accident settlements work?
How do I know how much my paralysis is worth?
Why do I need to hire an auto accident doctor if I have been paralyzed?
If you have been paralyzed, the first thing you should do is go to your doctor and seek medical attention. After you have seen a specialist, you might find these resources helpful.
