AFTER A CATASTROPHIC INJURY

Building a Claim Around Long-Term Needs

The most important losses may extend years into the future.

  • Preserve records showing how the injury occurred and who was involved.
  • Keep hospital, specialist, rehabilitation, and therapy records.
  • Document changes in mobility, cognition, self-care, work, and family responsibilities.
  • Track equipment, transportation, home modifications, and caregiving costs.
  • Preserve employment and wage records relevant to future earning capacity.
  • Avoid resolving the claim before the long-term medical picture is reasonably understood.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Scranton Catastrophic Injury Lawyers FAQs

What makes an injury catastrophic?

The term generally describes severe, life-altering harm that causes long-term or permanent limitations.

Why is future-care evidence important?

A claim may need to account for treatment, equipment, assistance, and care that continue for years.

Can lost future earnings be part of a claim?

When supported by the facts and evidence, reduced earning capacity can be an important component.

Should a catastrophic case be settled quickly?

A quick resolution can be risky if the prognosis and future costs are not yet understood.
