Catastrophic Injuries

Macon Catastrophic Personal Injury Lawyer

A catastrophic personal injury is not an injury from which people fully recover. It is life changing in its effects and it is one that will often require a lifetime of medical care.

Hiring an experienced attorney to represent you in a catastrophic personal injury case can go a long way towards ensuring that you get what you need.

If you or a family member has suffered a catastrophic personal injury, rely on the experience and dedication you will find at Nelson & Smith. We have represented thousands of injury victims and recovered millions of dollars for our clients. To schedule a free consultation, contact us.

At Nelson & Smith, LLC, we represent catastrophic personal injury victims in the Macon-Warner Robins area and throughout Middle Georgia, and we help them recover full compensation in cases involving:

  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI), brain damage
  • Spinal cord injuries (paralysis, paraplegia, quadriplegia)
  • Back injuries (compression fractures, herniated discs)
  • Multiple fractures
  • Amputation injuries
  • Facial scarring and disfigurement
  • Burn injuries
  • Vision loss / hearing loss

Life Care Planning and Structured Settlements

Catastrophic injuries involve more than just medical expenses and lost income. They also involve hidden costs related to home remodeling requirements, special transportation needs, and diminished life expectancies. Our firm relies on medical professionals, economists, actuaries, and other Life Care Planning experts to calculate a level of compensation that truly reflects ALL of the burdens our clients' will have to bear because of their injuries. While this process may take some time, it is better to make certain that any settlement or award will be enough to take care of you.

Our dedication to you and your case will extend beyond just handling the legal side of things. Whether that means dealing with bill collectors or finding qualified health care providers—we will do what we can to minimize any apprehension or anxiety you may have. In addition, we are also skilled at negotiating structured settlement agreements that can help you better manage your care and your finances long-term.

Our firm is also experienced with handling workers' compensation and social security disability claims involving catastrophic injuries.
