Permanent Injury Lawyer

Permanent injuries may include any number of diagnoses that permanently affect the way someone looks, behaves, or feels. These victims will never achieve a maximum recovery that allows them to return to their former lives. Many will never live independently again.

Some of the most common permanent injuries our attorneys see include:

• Disfiguring burn injuries

  •  Scarring and complications from burn injuries can cause permanent disfigurement, limit mobility, and alter sensation in affected areas. Some burn victims will experience chronic pain for the rest of their lives and undergo several surgeries.

• Traumatic brain injuries

  • Brain injuries range from mild, recoverable concussions to permanent and serious damage. Permanent brain injuries may affect a person’s ability to talk, function, control movements, process information, remember, or sense the world around them. Complications including seizures and PTSD may plague a traumatic brain injury victim for the rest of his or her life.

• Complete and incomplete spinal cord injuries

  •  The spinal cord relays messages to and from the brain to the rest of the body. When damaged or severed, it loses that ability. Spinal cord injury victims may lose the ability to feel or move certain body parts. Many spinal cord injuries result in paralysis. Individuals may never again walk or perform basic daily activities on their own after a serious spinal cord injury.

• Amputations

  • Car accidents, falls, equipment accidents, and accident complications can all lead to amputation injuries and prevent individuals from working in their chosen professions.

• Specific injuries

  •  Various accidents can cause individuals to lose specific sensations including the ability to see or hear. Other injuries may create chronic pain. These specific losses permanently affect the way someone engages with the world around him or her.

A permanent injury will always have a profound effect on an individual’s life. When careless, reckless, and malicious behaviors contribute to or cause permanent injuries, our firm helps those who are injured seek fair compensation.
