Indianapolis Catastrophic Injury Attorneys
FIGHTING FOR YOU WHEN THE STAKES ARE HIGHEST
A catastrophic injury is one that temporarily or permanently alters a person’s ability to live the life he or she lived prior to the injury. In most cases, catastrophic injuries are so severe, they prevent the victim from returning to work in his or her full capacity—or even altogether. They typically result in some form of physical or cognitive disability, often both.
Catastrophic injuries have serious, life-altering implications for both the victim and his or her family. The physical, emotional, and financial costs of such an injury can be both devastatingly high and extremely far-reaching. If you or your loved one suffered a catastrophic injury due to someone else’s negligence, you should not have to face these consequences alone.

Compensation for Catastrophic Injuries
Catastrophic injury cases are somewhat different than other types of personal injury claims in Indianapolis that the extent and severity of damages are often far greater. Victims typically require both immediate emergency treatment and ongoing medical care. This can include physical and/or cognitive rehabilitation, various pain-management medications, and therapy to deal with the emotional trauma of the accident. Victims may require special medical devices, such as wheelchairs. The lifetime cost of treatment for a catastrophic injury can easily exceed millions of dollars, placing a huge financial burden on families.
