It’s easy for car accidents to cause life-changing injuries. This is especially true if the victim is a pedestrian or a cyclist who has less protection than the motorists that they share the road with, but drivers and passengers can end up with serious injuries too. If you were permanently disabled in a car accident, you may be owed compensation. A Corpus Christi, Texas car accident lawyer from our firm may be able to help you.
What Kinds of Injuries Can Cause Someone to Become Permanently Disabled?
Many common car accident injuries can cause a victim to become permanently disabled. They can rarely fully recover from injuries like:
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Loss of a sense, like sight
- Severe internal organ damage
- Traumatic brain injuries and concussions
- Amputations and loss of a limb
These injuries can also affect someone’s mental health, forcing them to deal with PTSD, anxiety, and other issues that make it difficult for them to return to their normal lives. If you were permanently disabled in an accident and you believe that someone else’s negligence was to blame, we want to help you hold the negligent party accountable.
What Kind of Compensation Should I Recieve After Being Permanently Disabled?
Your compensation should not just address the financial impacts of your accident. A fair offer also makes up for the pain and suffering you have experienced and the difficulty you have adjusting to life as a permanently disabled person. We can help you negotiate for an offer that has been calculated with all of the following in mind:
- Lost wages
- Past and future medical expenses
- Loss of earning potential
- Mental anguish
- Pain from disability or disfigurement
- The cost of vocational rehabilitation
This accident has probably cost you a lot of money already, and it could continue to cost you money as you look for ways to improve your life and adjust to your new normal. Why should you have to pay all of these bills when the negligence of someone else caused your accident in the first place?
Do I Need a Lawyer?
You are not required to hire a lawyer, but proving negligence in a personal injury case can be tough on your own. It can also be difficult to face down an insurance company’s army of attorneys by yourself. We can handle the communications and negotiations for you, allowing you to focus on your recovery and spending time with your loved ones.
Will I Have to Go to Trial?
You may have to go to trial, but many cases like this settle before they reach that point. Our lawyers can help you build a strong case backed by compelling evidence. Then we can help you negotiate a fair settlement offer that addresses the costs of your accident.
