Tulsa Catastrophic Injury Lawyers

From car crashes to workplace accidents, there are unexpected events that happen every day that could cause catastrophic injuries.

What Is a Catastrophic Injury?

The key difference between a catastrophic injury and a personal injury is the severity. Catastrophic injuries have effects that are long-lasting, if not permanent. These are also typically injuries that substantially alters the way a person lives.

Examples of catastrophic injuries include:

• Traumatic brain injuries that alter cognitive functions, among other serious effects
• Spinal cord injuries, which could result in chronic pain, a loss or change of specific movements or motor functions, and more
• Damage to organs that causes life threatening internal bleeding
• Burns that are severe enough to require surgeries or medical attention and that are at-risk for infection or that could cause disfigurement
• An injury to an arm or leg that results in the need for amputation 

Types of Damages We Can Help You Recover

The costs of a severe injury can add up quickly. That is why our Tulsa catastrophic injury attorneys’ primary focus is getting clients the compensation they need. Whether through seeking damages, helping them apply for workers’ compensation benefits, or both, we can work to account for and cover our client’s past, present, and future medical bills. We can do the same for wages lost from being unable to work and to account for a decrease in their future income. We can even quantify and pursue damages for loss of quality of life, the pain and suffering they endured, and other “non-economic” costs that often accompany a catastrophic injury.
