Severe Injury

Severe injuries are life-altering events that can result in permanent physical, emotional, and financial challenges. If you or a loved one has suffered a severe injury due to someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to significant compensation.

At Castel & Hall, LLP, we specialize in severe injury cases and are here to help you navigate the legal process. Let us fight for your rights and ensure you receive the compensation you deserve to rebuild your life.

What Is a Severe Injury?

A severe injury is a catastrophic physical harm that results in long-term or permanent disability, disfigurement, or loss of function. These injuries often require extensive medical treatment, rehabilitation, and lifelong care. Examples include:

• Traumatic brain injuries (TBI).
• Spinal cord injuries (e.g., paraplegia or quadriplegia).
• Amputations (e.g., loss of a limb).
• Severe burns (e.g., covering more than 50% of the body).
• Organ damage or loss of function.
• Permanent scarring or disfigurement.

Severe injuries can result from:

• Car, truck, or motorcycle accidents.
• Workplace accidents.
• Medical malpractice.
• Defective products.
• Slip and fall accidents.

The Impact of Severe Injuries

Severe injuries can have devastating consequences, including:

• Physical limitations (e.g., paralysis or loss of mobility).
• Emotional trauma (e.g., depression, anxiety, or PTSD).
• Financial burdens (e.g., medical bills, lost wages, and ongoing care costs).
• Loss of independence (e.g., inability to work or perform daily activities).

If your injury was caused by someone else’s negligence, you shouldn’t have to bear these burdens alone.

Compensation for Severe Injuries

In a severe injury case, you may be entitled to compensation for:

• Medical expenses (past and future).
• Lost wages and reduced earning capacity.
• Rehabilitation and therapy costs.
• Home modifications (e.g., wheelchair ramps or accessible bathrooms).
• Pain and suffering.
• Emotional distress.
• Loss of enjoyment of life.
• Punitive damages (in cases of gross negligence).

At Castel & Hall, LLP, we’ll fight to ensure you receive the full compensation you deserve.
