Catastrophic Injuries from Car Accidents
High-speed collisions frequently cause catastrophic injuries including:
- ✓Traumatic brain injuries from head impact
- ✓Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- ✓Multiple bone fractures
- ✓Severe burns from vehicle fires
- ✓Amputation from crushing injuries
- ✓Internal organ damage
Sources of Compensation
Catastrophic car accident victims may recover from: the at-fault driver's liability insurance, their own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage, their own medical payments (MedPay) coverage, and personal assets of wealthy defendants.
Insurance Policy Limits Challenge
A major challenge in catastrophic car accident cases is that damages often exceed available insurance. We investigate all potential defendants and insurance sources, and in cases involving wealthy defendants, we pursue personal assets beyond insurance limits.
Commercial Vehicle Accidents
Accidents involving commercial vehicles (trucks, buses, delivery vehicles) often provide better compensation opportunities because commercial policies typically have higher limits ($1-5 million or more) and multiple parties may share liability.
