Hyattsville, MD Catastrophic Injury Attorney

Aggressive Lawyer for Severe Injuries and Disabilities in Hyattsville, Maryland

A catastrophic injury can change the course of a person's life forever. These injuries often result in long-term or permanent disabilities. They may involve disfigurement, and a victim may face significant limitations that can affect their daily life. Serious injuries can place enormous emotional and financial strain on victims and their families. When catastrophic injuries are caused by another party's negligence, legal help will often be needed to make sure this person will be held responsible.

At Kisner Law, we work with catastrophic injury victims as they address the ways they and their families have been affected. We will take aggressive action to hold the responsible parties accountable for their negligence and ensure that victims will receive the financial compensation they deserve.

Types of Catastrophic Injuries

An injury may be considered to be catastrophic if it has resulted in severe, long-lasting harm. These injuries can affect a person's physical and mental well-being, especially in situations involving permanent disabilities. Some of the most common examples of severe, catastrophic injuries include:

  • Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI): A sudden impact to the head can cause damage to the brain, resulting in issues such as cognitive impairments, memory loss, personality changes, and a reduced ability to speak or process information.
  • Spinal Cord Injuries: Damage to the spinal cord may result in paraplegia, quadriplegia, or other forms of paralysis, severely limiting a victim's mobility and requiring long-term care and assistance with daily needs.
  • Amputations: The loss of a limb will usually lead to serious physical limitations, chronic pain, and other complications. Due to the need for prosthetic devices and rehabilitation, the costs of treating these injuries can be very high.
  • Burn Injuries: Severe burns can result in permanent scarring, disfigurement, nerve damage, and other impairments. Victims may require multiple surgeries, and they may suffer from long-term pain and other health issues.
  • Broken Bones: When bones are fractured, victims may experience restricted mobility, chronic pain, or other complications, even after they have recovered. Severe fractures, including shattered bones, compound fractures, or bones broken in multiple places, may never fully heal, and victims may experience permanent disabilities.
  • Soft Tissue Injuries: Damage to muscles, ligaments, and tendons can cause long-term complications. Surgical repairs or physical therapy may be needed to regain function in the parts of the body where these injuries have occurred.
  • Facial and Vision Injuries: Trauma to the face or eyes can result in loss of vision, permanent disfigurement, and significant emotional distress.
