Denver Catastrophic Injury Attorneys

Common examples of catastrophic injuries include:

• Traumatic brain injuries
• Spinal cord injuries
• Amputations
• Severe burns
• Paralysis

The above can result from virtually any kind of accident. However, severe motor vehicle wrecks, work accidents (especially in the construction industry), and medical malpractice are some of the most frequent causes. 

How Catastrophic Injury Cases Differ from Others

Catastrophic injury cases are frequently more complex and high stakes than other accident injury cases. This is due to the severity of the injuries and their extensive impact. Handling a catastrophic injury case requires detailed assessments of common treatment options for severe injuries and probable long-term care needs. Additionally, these cases generally involve larger amounts of compensation, which often means a more vigorous fight from the at-fault party’s insurance company.  

We have what it takes to navigate the complexities above and any others. Leveraging 30+ years of combined experience, our attorneys can work tirelessly to build a compelling case on your behalf, using expert witnesses, medical evidence, and other necessary resources to prove liability and secure maximum damages.

Catastrophic Injuries & Medical Malpractice

As described above, medical malpractice can easily cause catastrophic injuries. When physicians, nurses, or other healthcare workers fail to provide an appropriate standard of care, resulting in serious harm or death, they can be liable for damages. At Leventhal Swan Taylor Temming PC, we excel at handling medical malpractice cases. In fact, we are one of few law firms in the area who take on these kinds of challenging cases.

What Is Your Case Worth?

The value of your case will depend on numerous factors. These include, but are not limited to, the following: 

• The severity of your injuries. As mentioned, catastrophic injuries often result in long-term or permanent impacts on a person’s health and well-being. This may include extensive medical treatment, rehabilitation, and ongoing care needs.
• Lost wages and earning capacity. Catastrophic injuries can prevent you from returning to work or limit your ability to earn a living, leading to significant financial losses now and in the future.
• Pain and suffering. These types of injuries can also cause immense physical and emotional pain and suffering, which should be accounted for when determining compensation.
• Impact on quality of life. Catastrophic injuries can drastically change your life, affecting your ability to participate in activities you once enjoyed and lessening your independence.

As a client of Leventhal Swan Taylor Temming PC, you can expect our team to carefully assess the full extent of your damages and losses. Typically, this is one of the first steps we take. Doing so establishes a solid foundation for moving forward with your case, enabling us to know exactly what you deserve.
