Treating a Catastrophic Injury

Victims of catastrophic injuries often require medical care from many different types of healthcare professionals – often for the rest of their lives. Catastrophic injury victims are treated by:

  • Emergency medical professionals at the scene of the accident
  • Emergency room physicians and staff
  • Hospitals where the victims have one or more surgeries – performed by neurosurgeons, orthopedists, general surgeons, and other specialists
  • Specialists including neurologists, pain management doctors, psychologists, and other physicians
  • Rehabilitation professionals including physical therapists, occupational therapists, physiatrists, speech therapists, and other professionals

Many catastrophic injury victims also work with life planners and social service professionals to help the victim and help family and friends support their loved ones.

At Telaré Law, we understand how expensive all this medical care can be. We understand all the ways your life is never the same as before the accident. We confirm your diagnosis, prognosis, medical needs, and your challenges – with your physicians. By the time we negotiate with the insurance companies or submit your case for a jury trial – we’re ready with all the crucial details. That’s why adjusters and defense lawyers respect us. They know we’re thoroughly prepared.

Vehicle accidents are a leading cause of death in America. They rank at the top of the lists along with cancer, heart disease, and Covid. According to Safer-America, 38,800 people died in car accidents in 2019.

We represent victims of head-on crashes, rear-end collisions, broadside crashes, rollovers, jackknives, cargo spills, intersection accidents, and merging accidents. We handle accidents on interstates, state roads, urban roads, and rural highways.

Our lawyers handle accidents due to drunk driving, distracted driving, speeding, driving fatigue, and a host of other causes. Our attorneys file claims against drivers, vehicle owners, trucking companies, government agencies, and other responsible parties.

We work with investigators, traffic reconstruction professionals, and vehicle parts experts to help show why the defendants should be held accountable for your injuries or a loved one’s tragic death.

How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Lawsuit Claim?

Don’t wait. Delay can hurt your case. While most claims for accidents or the death of a loved one can be brought within three years of the date of the accident or injury, it’s best to move quickly. We need to investigate the cause of the accident while memories and the evidence are fresh. We want to answer your questions as quickly as possible to give you some peace of mind.

Please note, that there may be shorter exceptions to the three-year statute of limitations. For example, claims against the government must be filed promptly.
