Catastrophic Accidents

Chicago Catastrophic Injuries Lawyers - Lowery & Associates, LLC

When people are injured seriously or permanently in accidents of any kind, the critical questions in the litigation of their personal injury claims are somewhat different from the issues in cases where a full recovery is expected. For a free and confidential discussion of your situation call the northern Illinois serious injury attorneys at Lowery & Associates, LLC.

Catastrophic injuries are usually understood as those physical traumas from which the victim's prospects of full recovery are doubtful, or where a permanent incapacitating disability is already known. These injuries can include:

• paraplegia or quadriplegia
• continuing coma or persistent vegetative state
• serious closed head injuries, traumatic brain injury, or spinal injury
• amputation, including loss of limbs or loss of use of limbs
• blindness or permanent loss of vision

The Chicago catastrophic injuries lawyers at Lowery & Associates know what a disabling accident can mean to an accident victim and his or her family. Our highly regarded personal injury law firm has extensive experience working closely with lay and expert witnesses to present the most effective case possible on issues of a particular defendant's liability and the extent of the victim's damages.

In cases involving the most serious personal injuries, establishing a defendant's liability isn't always the most difficult task - often it's making sure that the plaintiff's full measure of damages - lost income, loss of future income, pain and suffering, cost of continuing care, and loss of quality of life - are compensated sufficiently so that the costs caused by permanent changes in the lives of an entire family can at least be covered financially. In many cases, these costs are extensive.

The central and northern Illinois catastrophic injury lawyers at Lowery & Associates know as well as you do that no amount of money is sufficient to cover the value of the loss of a loved one's company, in cases where traumatic brain injury effectively ends normal life for the victim and the victim's family. But at least our attorneys can help ensure that the material essentials of life will be provided in these unfortunate situations. Call us in Chicago for a confidential discussion about your options.
