North Carolina Catastrophic Injury Attorneys

Catastrophic, or serious injury cases are distinguished by the extent of physical injury. The length of time necessary for healing is longer, if significant healing is actually possible. The costs of medical care and long-term care are astronomical. Contact a Charlotte personal injury attorney.

Catastrophic injuries involve:

  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
  • Burns
  • Electrocution
  • Spinal cord injury
  • Paralysis
  • Other traumatic injuries

They result from powerful collisions, explosions, medical procedures, birth injury, construction accidents, and semi-truck accidents, among other incidents. There may be psychological damage that should be treated. No one asks to be seriously or permanently injured. It is a hard state to deal with.

The brain is, of course, the most important organ in the body, and is vulnerable in collisions. Damage to it or the spinal cord, running within the spine itself, will also severely affect other parts of the body.

Because large amounts of money are at stake, these cases are defended at trial more often. Retain a Charlotte personal injury attorney at Elam & Rousseaux, P.A., an experienced firm with the resources to handle complicated and high-value cases.
