Catastrophic Injury Attorney in Oakland

Oakland Personal Injury Lawyer

A "catastrophic injury" may include any type of serious injury that impacts or threatens a victim's life. Some examples of catastrophic injuries may include, but are not limited to: burn injuries, spinal cord injuries, paralysis, head trauma, brain injuries, amputation, broken bones, eye injuries, loss of hearing and loss of eyesight. When a victim sustains any one or more of these types of injuries, he or she may need to be hospitalized and may be at risk of facing an inability to work for an extended period of time. In some cases, a catastrophic injury will permanently affect a victim, as in the case of paraplegia or quadriplegia.
