Catastrophic Injury

Assistance from Fort Lauderdale Catastrophic Injury Attorney

Anthony Quackenbush works as a Fort Lauderdale Catastrophic Injury Lawyer. He handles catastrophic injury cases in all areas of Florida – this includes Broward County and South Florida. A catastrophic injury is an injury that is so bad that it is debilitating and renders the victim unable to live a normal life. Many victims of catastrophic injury, for example, are not able to work.

Catastrophic injuries may include spinal cord injuries, paraplegia and quadriplegia. They may also include traumatic brain injuries (TBI’s) and head injuries, brain damage, comas and vegetative states. Catastrophic injuries may include eye injuries, vision loss, and hearing loss. Catastrophic injuries in the medical malpractice context can include birth injuries and cerebral palsy. Catastrophic injuries resulting from slip and fall incidents can include complex regional pain syndrome (RSD). Catastrophic injuries can also include amputations and loss of limbs, as well as severe burn injuries.

If you sustained catastrophic injuries due to the fault of somebody else, contact Mr. Quackenbush at 954-448-7288 for a free, no obligation consultation. Mr. Quackenbush will not get paid for his work unless you have been compensated for your injuries.

Fort Lauderdale Catastrophic Injury Lawyer Advises Clients

Contact this Fort Lauderdale Catastrophic Injury Law Firm if you’ve been catastrophically hurt in an accident. If you’ve been catastrophically injured due to the fault of somebody else, there are a couple things you should do. First of all, it important that you document your injuries and the effect that they have on your life. You should, for example, keep a diary of the pain you are experiencing and the ways your life has changed. This may be useful later in the case. Additionally, Mr. Quackenbush may use a “Day in the Life” video, which is a videographic depiction of your life after the accident. The Day in the Life video can help to bring a Jury into your home and depict the difficulties of your daily life.

Further, you should keep track of your time missed from work. In any personal injury case, you may receive compensation for three things: medical bills, pain and suffering, and lost or missed wages. In order to receive compensation for your lost wages, it is important that you document your time missed from work. Mr. Quackenbush takes a team approach to your case, and will involve many necessary expert witnesses. One expert witness may hire is expert called an Economist to predict the wages that you will lose into the future. He may also hire another expert called a vocational rehabilitation expert who will testify about your ability to work into the future (i.e., if you will be able to work, if you will be able to work the same or a different job, how much you will be able to work, how long you will be able to work, etc.). In combination with the economist, these two expert witnesses will predict how much money you will lose as lost wages into the future.

Finally, if you injuries are bad enough, Mr. Quackenbush may hire an expert witness called a “Life Care Planner.” This type of expert witness will predict if you are going to need medical care in the future and, if so, how much that care will cost. All of these experts together (the economist, the vocational rehabilitation expert, and the life-care planner, will determine the amount of money required to compensate you for your losses. Mr. Quackenbush will use them should your case go to trial to try to prove your damages to the jury and justify asking for a certain amount of money as compensation for your injuries.
