Personal Injury

Catastrophic Personal Injuries are suffered every day by innocent people as a result of a multitude of negligent and intentional behaviors. Some examples of ways in which Catastrophic Personal Injuries can be inflicted are as the result of the negligence of medical care providers, automobile or truck accidents, pedestrians struck by motor vehicles, defective products causing an injury, negligent security by a landowner resulting in personal injury or wrongful death, criminal activity such as assault and batteries and air travel disasters. There are many more ways in which innocent victims can be catastrophically injured or even die as a result of their injuries.

Among the types of these often permanent Catastrophic Personal Injuries which are suffered by these victims are: head injuries, brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, burn injuries, broken bones and fractures, serious back and neck injuries, shoulder injuries, muscle and ligament injuries, knee injuries, herniated or bulging discs, reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) also known as complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), loss of sight, loss of hearing, loss of other senses, disfiguring scars, amputation, paralysis, paraplegia, quadriplegia, and sometimes death (see also Wrongful Death).

Regardless of how you or one close to you was catastrophically injured, it is necessary to act quickly to determine potential liability and to preserve crucial evidence. Additionally, although you may be overwhelmed with receiving the medical and other care necessary at the time, in Nevada and elsewhere, there are limitations on the amount time in which you can file a formal action against a person or entity responsible for causing the Catastrophic Personal Injury; these are called statutes of limitations. You need the assistance of an experienced Catastrophic Personal Injury attorney. At Douglas H. Clark, P.C., we will analyze your case thoroughly and aggressively seek the compensation you or those close to you need and deserve.

When considering the ever-rising costs of healthcare today, the costs of future care for a person who has suffered a Catastrophic Personal Injury can be absolutely overwhelming and extremely frightening. It is critical to obtain all relevant and necessary information regarding past and future health care cost projections, as well as wage loss and other economic damages when analyzing a Catastrophic Personal Injury case and preparing it for presentation to a jury. The proper use of experts in the preparation of the case and at trial is also of paramount importance, whether they be medical experts, liability experts, economists, long-term care planners, or vocational rehabilitation specialists.
