  • Long-term health complications

  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)

Regardless of the type of injury, the attorneys at Strom Law Firm are ready to fight for your recovery and compensation.

What steps should you take to pursue a catastrophic injury claim?

Victims of catastrophic injury, almost always need costly and extensive medical treatment, and often need continual in-home aid. Due to these severe consequences of such injuries, a victim may choose to file a catastrophic injury lawsuit.

Often, multiple parties are legally responsible for the same catastrophic injury accident. These cases can be time-consuming and costly, requiring the use of experts and additional evidence.

Evidence might include expert reports, accident reports, reconstruction, and medical testimony.

To what type of compensation might a catastrophic injury victim be entitled?

A catastrophically injured plaintiff may receive damages of two types: non-economic and economic damages.

  • Non-economic damages are intended to compensate a victim for different types of loss like pain and suffering or emotional distress.
  • Economic damages are intended to cover financial loss caused by the accident, examples include medical bills and lost income.

Different types of personal injury compensation might include:

  • Compensation for bills paid related to the medical treatment of your injuries. These may include ER visits, nursing homes, or physical and occupational therapy. This often includes the costs of future medical treatment.
  • Pain and suffering.
  • Emotional distress. Damages recovered for anxiety, depression, or PTSD resulting from the injury.
  • Lost income and wages. If you’ve missed work because of your injuries, this form of compensation for lost wages will attempt to make you whole again. You may also receive compensation for your future inability to work over the course of your lifetime.
  • Wrongful death.
  • Loss of consortium. These damages are intended to compensate family members for the loss they suffer when a victim is unable to provide the same companionship as before the accident.

Depending on the carelessness, or recklessness of the responsible party, a jury may also award a plaintiff punitive damages, which are intended to punish the behavior of the defendant that caused the injury.

The court will take into account the severity of the plaintiff’s injury and their expected current and future losses. Medical testimony will likely be used to provide evidence and support claims for current and future medical expenses.

Have you or a loved one suffered from a Sumter catastrophic injury?

The impact of a catastrophic injury extends beyond the physical, emotional, and economic toll it has on the victim. A victim’s family and loved ones suffer as well. For the rest of their lives, victims of catastrophic injury will be dealing with the consequences. Some will never fully recover, others will have their life shortened by their conditions. “Catastrophic injury“ is a designation given to any injury that will require long-term disability treatment and cause long-term suffering.

If you or a loved one have suffered a catastrophic injury, it is important to protect your legal rights and exhaust all of your avenues for compensation.

There is no amount of money that can make up for the suffering you have experienced from your injuries, but the Sumter catastrophic injury lawyers at Strom Law Firm will fight for your compensation and protect your rights at every turn.

What Our Clients Say

They truly care
Mrs Vallery, who answered the phone took more care and attention to detail than any other law office, that I have called, in 2 years+. She diligently took notes to give to the lawyers and cared about my situation and let me actually tell everything without cutting me short. Out of over 100 law offices, this is rare treatment. Care. Consideration. That means more than anything going through this…

From Self-Representation to Victory in SSDI Case!
My experience with Mario and his staff was outstanding. When everyone said to give up my case with SSDI and after being poorly represented and losing. I had to file my own appeals and represent myself. I literally called every attorney in the book. Then I called Mario cold – I expected one more no! Well, this gentleman took my case and won. He knows the law and cares a lot. I am proud to call him my friend. If you need a professional to help you, call these guys.

A Lifesaver in the Courtroom, Ensuring Freedom with A1 Professionalism
Needed a lifesaver. I had gotten myself into a bad situation and the possibility of going to prison. Through the diligence and hard work done by attorney Alley B., I was able to walk out of that courtroom a free man. No tricks just hard down attorney work. She was an A1 professional and knew every inch of the Law pertaining to my case. For that, I am forever grateful.
