Types of Catastrophic Injuries

A catastrophic injury is a life-changing injury that can impact the victim long term in a number of ways. Catastrophic injuries may be more severe and consequential than other accidents that allow the victim to eventually make a full recovery and return to their pre-accident way of life.

Common injuries from a catastrophic accident might be any of the following:

  • Disability because of the accident
  • Spinal injury
  • Paralysis
  • Burns and lacerations covering a large part of the body
  • Traumatic brain injury
  • Amputation or disfigurement
  • And more

These types of injuries may require extensive, ongoing medical treatments. They may leave patients with permanent symptoms or limitations and may result in physical, mental, and emotional damages as well.

Types of Accidents that Can Cause Catastrophic Injuries

If another party’s negligence caused your catastrophic injury, they may be liable for your damages in a personal injury lawsuit. Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers helps clients pursue compensation for a variety of types of accidents, such as:

Car and Truck Accidents

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly three million nonfatal car wrecks occur annually. A negligent driver can cause a motor vehicle accident by violating a traffic law, drunk driving, distracted driving, and taking other irresponsible actions.

Premises Liability Accidents

If a property owner neglects to maintain the safety of their premises, they may be liable for accidents that occur as a result. Premises liability accidents may involve slip and falls, negligent security, swimming pool accidents, and more.

Product Liability Accidents

If a defective product, such as a power tool or car component, malfunctions and causes an accident, the designer or manufacturer of that product may be liable for the resultant damages.

Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers also takes on cases regarding

  • Dog bites
  • Maritime accidents
  • Dangerous drugs
  • Dangerous medical devices
  • Mass torts
  • Wrongful death
  • And more

If you think your accident may have been the result of another party’s negligence, call Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers today at (337) 777-7777 for a free consultation on your case with a member of our team.

Building Your Case on Evidence

When you work with a Eunice catastrophic injury lawyer from Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers, we can collect evidence to build your case. This generally entails:

Evidence of Liability

Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers may begin your case by investigating your accident to identify the liable party. We can then gather evidence and material that helps demonstrate liability, such as:

  • Police reports
  • Eyewitness reports
  • Photos or videos from the scene of the accident
  • Your account of what happened
  • Medical records
  • Testimony from accident reconstruction specialists
  • And more

Our evidence will attempt to show that the responsible party:

  • Owed you a duty of care
  • Took actions to breach that duty of care
  • Caused your accident and your injuries as a result

Evidence of Your Injuries

We can also gather evidence of your damages and their value to present in an insurance claim or on trial. This evidence may include

  • Your medical records and bills
  • Receipts for car repair or replacement or any other out-of-pocket expenses
  • Income statements of your wages from lost work
  • Statements from medical or economic experts regarding your future costs of care
  • Evidence of the severity and value of your non-economic damages such as pain and suffering

The reassurance from Digger and his staff gave me that renewed hope that it’s going to be okay down the road.
