Catastrophic Injuries
The Legal Side of Catastrophic Injuries
The attorneys of Tom Rhodes Law Firm P.C., represent clients who have suffered life-altering injuries through the negligence of others.
Our law firm has obtained significant verdicts and settlements on behalf of clients who suffered serious injuries that require a lifetime of ongoing care, including:
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
- Brain damage from other types of closed-head injuries
- Spinal cord injuries and nerve injuries that cause paralysis
- Burns
- Amputations
- Internal injuries
- Blindness or deafness
- Serious fractures
- Mild traumatic brain injury
When injuries are truly catastrophic, care must be taken to see that the injured person has the resources he or she will need to survive financially for the rest of his or her life.
Planning for the Future
Our attorneys work with certified life care planners to assess the accident-related needs of clients and project their future costs. These may include ongoing medical care, surgeries, physical therapy, physical and vocational rehabilitation, personal care assistants, wheel chairs, prostheses and modifications to the home or car to make them handicapped accessible. We factor in lost wages, loss of future earning potential, property damage and other damages. Then we pursue maximum compensation for the full extent of damages.
Our attorneys visit with clients and family members as soon as possible after the accident so that we can begin to understand the impact the accident has had upon their lives. We refer them to appropriate care providers and help them apply for any benefits they might be eligible to receive.
