What Is a Catastrophic Injury?
Catastrophic injuries are severe—often life-altering—injuries that have a profound effect on an individual’s physical and mental well-being. These injuries typically result in significant, long-term consequences, causing substantial disruption to the victim’s life.
Examples include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries leading to paralysis, amputations, severe burns, and other injuries that result in permanent disabilities.
Potential Forms of Compensation in a Cherryville Catastrophic Injury Case
You deserve fair compensation when another party’s negligence caused your catastrophic injuries. For example, catastrophic injuries can result from the following accidents:
- Car accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Truck accidents
- Physical assaults
- Medical malpractice
Our Cherryville, NC, lawyers can seek current and future accident-related losses, so you don’t fall the bill later. Here are some of the potential damages in your case:
- Immediate medical expenses (e.g., diagnostic testing, surgeries, medication, and emergency room care)
- Ongoing medical expenses (e.g., medical devices, in-home aid, prescription and over-the-counter drugs, and rehabilitative services)
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of quality of life
- Disability
- Disfigurement
- Property damage
- Lost income
- Reduced earning capacity
Other accident-related losses could warrant recovery. Thus, we can review various documents, such as your medical records and wage statements, to determine what fair compensation looks like in your case. Moreover, we leave no stone unturned because we do not want you footing the bill down the line.
Make Sure to Follow Through With Your Prescribed Treatment Plan
In the aftermath of a catastrophic injury, prioritize your health and well-being by seeking immediate medical care. Your medical records help establish the extent of your injuries and play a crucial role in establishing damages in your case for compensation. Additionally, timely medical intervention can help you reach your maximum medical recovery.
Your records also provide comprehensive documentation of the injuries sustained. This proof can illustrate the severity of the injuries, the required treatments, and their potential long-term impact.
So, make sure to follow through with your doctor’s orders and make it to all your appointments. The last thing you want is for an insurance adjuster to claim you contributed to your injuries by delaying or forgoing treatment.

Our Cherryville Lawyers Can Help You Meet the Statute of Limitations
If you decide to file a lawsuit, you should know you have limited time to start the legal process. N.C. Gen. Stat. § 1-52 states that people generally have three years to file a personal injury lawsuit. N.C. Gen. Stat. § 1-53 typically gives claimants two years to file a wrongful death lawsuit.
If you miss this state-imposed deadline, you risk having the court dismiss your lawsuit and losing your last chance at recovering compensation. Few exceptions apply to the statute of limitations.
We can work to meet this deadline and streamline the legal process; however, it takes time to build a case. We must investigate the incident, compile an evidence file, and negotiate with insurers. None of these processes extends the deadline, though. So, begin working on your case immediately to secure your right to take legal action against a liable party.
