WHAT IS A CATASTROPHIC INJURY?

 When it comes to law, a catastrophic injury means an extreme or serious injury such that it has a considerable impact on the victim of the injury.

 When this happens, there  necessitates a considerable amount of medical treatment to assist the patient in recovery and healing if possible.

 In law, when a person sustains a permanent and serious injury in an accident caused by the negligent actions of another,

the injured person may have a claim in law against the party who caused the injury due to their wrongdoing. 

 A few examples of catastrophic injuries are:

1. Broken bones/fractures.
2. Amputation.
3. Burns.
4. Traumatic Brain injuries.
5. Internal organ damage.
6. Spinal cord injuries.
