What Is Considered a Catastrophic Injury?

Determining whether an injury is catastrophic depends more on the effect of the injury than on the accident itself. For legal purposes, any serious calamity that leaves a victim paralyzed, disfigured, or significantly impaired is considered a catastrophic injury. In these situations, the pain and suffering extends for a long time after the event and possibly even for the victim’s entire life.

The most common cases our Rogersville catastrophic injury attorneys handle include:

  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
  • Injuries resulting in partial or total paralysis
  • Injuries resulting in the loss of a limb
  • Severe burn injuries (third and fourth degree)
  • Injuries resulting in disfigurement and significant scarring

If any of this sounds familiar to you, you may be entitled to compensation from whoever is responsible for your accident. Even if you think you may be partially to blame, the law protects victims, so it is worth investigating.

Spinal Cord Injury Help in Rogersville & Beyond

Injury to the spinal cord caused by a car accident, a workplace injury, or a medical procedure often leaves a person in a state of semi-paralysis and may even cause death. The scientific and medical details involved in such a case can be complex, and it is crucial that you have competent, experienced legal representation at your side to fight for you through settlement negotiations or litigation.

The injury attorney at our Rogersville firm has seen many types of spinal injuries during the decades that we’ve litigated spinal injury cases.

The most common causes of spinal injury include:

  • Medical malpractice
  • Motor vehicle accidents
  • Workplace injuries
  • Defective products
  • Slip and falls and other premises liability claims
  • Nursing home negligence
  • Wrongful death situations
  • Construction site injuries

If you or someone you know was hurt in the spinal region, it is crucial to have a dedicated attorney by your side to get you compensation for your mental, emotional, physical, and financial suffering. Our Rogersville spinal injury attorneys bring in top experts to help you assemble the facts and build a solid case to help alleviate some of your pain from this catastrophic experience.

    "He is Awesome!"
    A couple months ago my family was put in a situation in which we had to find an attorney immediately. With being over 9 hours away from Tennessee we didn't know where to turn but to google. After seeing the reviews for Mr. Stapleton we called his office right away. Mr. Stapleton contacted us shortly after. He was honest and upfront from the beginning. His professionalism, communication, and charisma was phenomenal! Whenever we had questions he was there to answer. He always kept us well informed and never mislead us. He has always been straight forward regarding the case. Today we walked out of court with the outcome we wanted. Definitely recommend Mr. Stapleton to anyone who needs an attorney. He is AWESOME!!!
