What is a Catastrophic Injury?
A catastrophic injury is any type of injury that causes long-term or permanent disability to a person. It is also characterized by the way it prevents the individual from being able to work or enjoy the quality of life they once had.
A catastrophic injury doesn’t have to only involve total loss of bodily function. Partial loss of movement, dexterity, vision, or hearing ability may also be considered a catastrophic injury.
The following are common types of catastrophic injuries:
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Severe burn injuries
- Amputation/loss of limb injuries
- Permanent scarring and disfigurement
If you or a loved one has suffered a catastrophic injury due to the negligence of another person/party, let our experienced catastrophic injury lawyers in Hartford fight for the compensation you deserve.
Common Causes of Catastrophic Injuries
A catastrophic injury can occur when you least expect it, upending your life and putting uncommon hardship on your loved ones. While many catastrophic injuries happen at dangerous worksites, others occur when someone is simply walking down the street.
Some of the most common causes of catastrophic injury in Connecticut are:
- Accidents involving cars, trucks, and motorcycles
- Pedestrian and bicycle accidents
- Falls from heights and slip-and-falls
