What Is Considered a Catastrophic Injury in Georgia?

A catastrophic injury causes temporary or permanent disability that impairs physical or cognitive abilities. Most lead to life-altering consequences, and in some cases, wrongful death.

Our Georgia catastrophic injury lawyers handle claims resulting from:

• Dog bites and animal attacks
• Car, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, and pedestrian accidents
• Slip and falls and other premises liability incidents
• Defective products
• Medical malpractice
• Workplace injuries

Types of catastrophic injuries include:

• Spinal cord injuries
• Traumatic brain injuries
• Loss of vision or hearing
• Severe burns
• Amputations
• Internal organ damage
• Paralysis
• Complex fractures

These injuries often require long-term or 24/7 care. The liable party should pay for your care, suffering, and all related losses. We can help you pursue that compensation.

What Is My Catastrophic Injury Case Worth?

Every case is unique, but factors influencing its value include:

• Severity of your injury
• Impact on your work and life
• Comparative fault
• Insurance coverage
• Type of accident
• Required medical care

Our attorneys work with economists and life care planners to calculate your claim's full value.

What Damages Can I Recover?

You may be entitled to:

Economic Damages:

• Medical care (surgeries, therapies, long-term care)
• Lost wages and future earning capacity
• Out-of-pocket costs
• Household assistance

Non-Economic Damages:

• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Loss of quality of life
• Disfigurement and disability

In rare cases, punitive damages may be awarded if the at-fault party acted with intentional misconduct or gross negligence.

How Comparative Fault Affects Your Claim

Georgia’s modified comparative negligence law means:

• You can only recover damages if you’re less than 50% at fault
• Your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault

We fight hard to shield clients from unfair blame tactics used by insurance companies.

How Do You Prove Fault?

Most catastrophic injury claims are based on negligence, requiring proof of:

1. Duty of care
2. Breach of duty
3. Causation
4. Damages

We gather the evidence needed to build a strong case and prove fault under Georgia law.

Statute of Limitations in Georgia

You generally have two years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit. But exceptions can apply, so acting quickly is vital.

Contact our Georgia catastrophic injury lawyer as soon as possible to avoid missing critical legal deadlines.
