Get Compensation for Short- and Long-Term Losses in Your Catastrophic Injury Lawsuit
When you are facing life-altering injuries like traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, or other serious injuries caused by someone else, it can feel like a lonely time.
You may be spending long days in significant pain recovering at the hospital or at home. A severe injury can throw your life into upheaval as you are forced to miss time at work and lose your day-to-day routine. Your family might be worried about paying medical expenses and other household bills. Sometimes, the emotional distress from your injuries is as challenging as dealing with physical pain.
Our team can help. Your Marion catastrophic injury lawyer will help you build your case to establish the full extent of your expenses and losses. Your settlement or judgment should account for not only the short-term losses your family is experiencing after your injuries but also the long-term effects of your injuries on your health, career, and finances.
Medical Costs to Treat Severe Injuries
You could be facing a range of medical costs related to your injuries, including the medical attention you received immediately after your accident and ongoing medical care in the weeks or months after.
Some of the medical expenses that may be recoverable include but are not limited to:
- Emergency room care
- Emergency transportation
- Hospital stays
- Surgeries
- Ongoing doctor visits
- Rehabilitation and physical therapy
- Prescription drugs
- Home medical equipment
- Ongoing nursing care
Some insurance companies may try to settle your case for the value of the medical bills you incurred so far. But if you accept a lowball settlement, you generally cannot reopen the case and ask for more if you need additional care later. That’s why it’s vital to consider the long-term care or treatment you’ll require.
Your injury attorney may work with medical experts who can help establish the ongoing care you’ll require, helping to build your personal injury lawsuit to establish the full value of your losses in both the short and long term.
Lost Wages Following Catastrophic Injury
If you lost wages as you recover from your injuries, those lost wages are recoverable in a personal injury case. Some people who suffer catastrophic injuries, though, cannot return to their previous line of work and must accept a lower-paying position. Others cannot return to work at all.
Like your medical bills, it’s crucial that your personal injury case accounts for your short- and long-term lost wages. Our personal injury lawyers may work with expert witnesses who can help establish how your injuries will affect your ability to earn income, allowing us to build your case to fully account for the injury’s effect on your earning potential.
Pain and Suffering From Serious Injuries
You can also seek compensation for your pain and suffering, also referred to as noneconomic damages. The award for pain and suffering in a personal injury case can be quite significant, especially when facing catastrophic injuries.
Noneconomic losses may include physical pain, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, and more. It can be difficult to know if an insurance company’s settlement offer adequately addresses pain and suffering, so consult a Marion catastrophic injury attorney at Farmer & Morris Law, PLLC, for help.
