In today’s world, a catastrophic or life-changing injury can occur as a result of a car wreck, motorcycle wreck, incident in the work place, nursing home neglect and abuse, medical malpractice, defective product, or any number of other ways. What these injuries have in common is that they almost always occur suddenly and without warning, and the injured persons’ lives are changed forever through no fault of their own.
At Bailey & Oliver, our attorneys handle cases involving every kind of catastrophic injury, including:
- loss of life,
- amputation,
- brain injuries and closed head injuries,
- burn injuries,
- loss of vision,
- paralysis, paraplegia, and quadriplegia,
- spinal cord injuries
- neck and back injuries, and herniated discs,
- head injuries and traumatic brain injuries, and
- birth injury.
Such injuries not only cause immediate physical suffering, but also long-lasting mental and emotional pain and often times life-altering care taking needs. We understand the harms and losses that result from a catastrophic injury, not only for the person injured, but also for that person’s family. Personal injuries often cause financial hardship through loss of work, medical bills, and stress placed upon families and loved ones, and emotional hardship because of long-lasting or permanent pain and suffering caused by serious personal injury. We fully appreciate the special considerations involved when the person suffering injury is a child.
The law provides financial protection for individuals who have suffered injuries due to the negligence or wrongful actions of another or company. Both individuals and corporations have a duty to act reasonably to not cause personal injury. When there is a breach of this duty and injury results, individuals and corporations are liable not only for the past injuries and harms one suffers, but also for the ongoing injuries one is more than likely to suffer.
We will fight to get you full compensation, including compensation for both economic and non-economic damages for the harms you suffer in a personal injury. If an injury is the result of a corporation’s reckless disregard for safety or intentional misconduct, we will seek punitive damages to punish those responsible and to make sure others are not injured by similar conduct in the future.
When we accept your case, we will work exceptionally hard and commit our every resource to achieving the best result for you and your family, including proceeding to trial if that becomes necessary, all the while caring for you and your family. If you or any one close to you has suffered a personal injury at the hands of another, please contact the Bailey and Oliver Law Firm to discuss your rights and possible avenues to recover compensation for your injuries.
