A catastrophic injury is defined as an injury that results in serious, permanent effects on the victim. A catastrophic injury often impacts the spine, spinal cord, or brain and usually happens suddenly, without any warning.
These types of injuries can severely devastate a family emotionally and financially. The serious nature of these accidents often requires significant ongoing medical treatment and personal care. In addition, the expense of a lifetime of rehabilitation and medical bills can add serious financial stress on a family.
