Arizona Catastrophic Injury Attorneys

Comprehensive Guide to Catastrophic Injury Claims in Arizona

Catastrophic injuries are severe and life-changing injuries that can have a significant impact on a person's physical, emotional, and financial well-being. They often require ongoing medical care and rehabilitation, which can result in significant expenses. Our attorneys know how to investigate and handle catastrophic injury claims of all types, so you don’t have to worry about finding a law firm that can work on your case.

Common types of catastrophic injuries include:

• Traumatic brain injuries (TBI): This type of injury occurs when there is a sudden impact to the head, causing damage to the brain. TBI can result in long-term cognitive, behavioral, and physical impairments.
• Spinal cord injuries: These occur when there is damage to the spinal cord or nerves at the end of the spinal canal. Spinal cord injuries can cause paralysis, loss of sensation, and other serious health issues.
• Burn injuries: Burns can be caused by fire, chemicals, electricity, or radiation. They can result in scarring, disfigurement, nerve damage, and other complications.
• Amputations: An amputation is the removal of a limb or body part due to injury or disease. This type of injury can lead to significant physical limitations and emotional distress.
• Organ damage: Damage to internal organs such as the heart, lungs, liver, or kidneys can be life-threatening and require extensive medical treatment.
• Multiple fractures: Catastrophic accidents often involve multiple fractures which may require surgical intervention for repair, rather than just a sling and rest.

Maximizing Your Catastrophic Injury Claim's Value in Arizona

The value of a catastrophic injury claim is often significantly higher than that of a typical personal injury claim due to the severity and long-term impact of the injuries sustained. Catastrophic injuries can result in permanent disabilities, chronic pain, and emotional trauma, which can affect a person's ability to work and enjoy life.

As a result, catastrophic injury survivors may require ongoing medical treatment and rehabilitation, assistive devices such as wheelchairs or prosthetics, modifications to their homes or vehicles, and other costly accommodations. These expenses can add up quickly and continue for years or even decades after the initial injury.

In addition to economic damages such as medical bills and lost wages, catastrophic injury claims may also seek compensation for non-economic damages such as pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, emotional distress, disfigurement, and loss of consortium.
