Burn & Catastrophic Injury Impact
Serious burns and catastrophic injuries often involve long hospital stays, treatment plans that can last for years, and a painful recovery that may also include trauma, anxiety, or depression. Beyond the initial emergency care, people may face repeated surgeries, rehabilitation, and lasting limits that affect work, independence, and daily life.
- Medical care is often long-term: burn center transfers, rehabilitation, skin grafts, infection control, wound care, and ongoing therapy
- Lasting physical effects are common: scarring, contractures that limit movement, and sensitivity to temperature or touch
- Other catastrophic injuries can be life-changing: spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, amputations, and severe orthopedic damage
- Daily life may require major adjustments: assistive devices, home modifications, and ongoing in-home support
- Work and income are often affected: reduced ability to return to prior work, lost income, and long-term earning impact
- Common examples we see: severe burns, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries with paralysis, amputations, complex fractures needing multiple surgeries
How Our Attorneys Build Your Case
After a life-changing injury, you should not have to manage medical recovery and a legal claim at the same time. As your catastrophic injury attorney, we handle the legal work, identify who may be responsible, and build a claim that reflects your current needs and long-term costs, including cases involving medical malpractice, while keeping you informed and involved.
We start with a free consultation to understand what happened, your injuries, your treatment so far, and any insurance contact. If we take your case, we gather and review key evidence such as medical records, accident reports, photos or videos, and records from businesses, property owners, or healthcare providers when needed. We then build a strategy based on your goals and prepare for negotiation, mediation, or trial, using our experience in Colorado courts to pursue compensation for medical care, rehabilitation, adaptive equipment, lost income, and future needs.
What To Do After A Severe Injury
After a serious burn or catastrophic injury, things move fast, and it can be hard to know what matters. Prioritize medical care first, then focus on protecting your records and limiting insurance pressure so your health and any future claims are not undermined.
- Seek immediate medical care and follow your doctor’s recommendations
- Save discharge papers, medication lists, and care instructions
- Keep copies of bills and records for hospital stays, therapy, and equipment
- Take photos of visible injuries and, if possible, the scene of the incident
- Limit detailed conversations with insurance adjusters until you have legal advice
- Write down names and contact information for witnesses
- Contact to speak with a burn injury lawyer about your options
