According to the California Office of Traffic Safety, there were more than 44,000 car accidents in Los Angeles County in 2016, many of which resulted in severe, debilitating injury to victims. While any injury is painful, some include more intense physical, emotional, and financial consequences than others. California law does allow you to recover compensation for your massive losses, but you will need a Los Angeles car accident attorney to assist with the complicated claims process. You may also benefit from getting some answers to your most pressing questions.
In the medical field, catastrophic injuries are defined as those that cause:
Besides car accidents, catastrophic injuries can be caused by many different types of incidents, such as slip and fall incidents, defective products, workplace accidents, intentional attacks, and many other circumstances.
The nature of catastrophic injuries means that medical treatment is more significant. Emergency care and surgery are often required, and the costs of living with a disability are considerable. A wheelchair, hospital bed, lifts, scooters, and other gear may be necessary. Many victims also need counseling to cope with the effects. Plus, there are implications for your quality of life. Catastrophic injuries could prevent you from enjoying favorite activities with family, friends, and loved ones.
You may be entitled to recover compensation for your damages, which is a term that refers to the losses you suffer as a result of your injuries. A Los Angeles catastrophic injury lawyer can help you seek damages for:
The first step in seeking damages in a car accident case is to file a claim with the responsible driver’s insurance company. The insurer may deny payment or offer a lower amount, at which point you can attempt to negotiate a settlement. If you cannot agree on compensation, you must file a lawsuit in court.
Most attorneys who handle personal injury cases will bill clients on a contingency fee basis. You do not pay unless you recover compensation in your case, either from an insurance company or in court. Your lawyer’s fees are deducted from the recovery amount, based upon a percentage amount that you will agree to in advance.
