Among the unknowns that continue to pile up are medical expenses, loss of income, rehabilitation challenges, and any newly acquired limitations. At Hawk Legal, we represent clients throughout the Mobile area who have been seriously injured through no fault of their own. Many of our clients are facing a lifetime of living with permanent impairment, in addition to physical, emotional, and financial challenges. If you or a loved one have been the victims of one of these tragic accidents, don’t wait another minute. Contact our office now to schedule a free consultation to discuss the potential for a catastrophic injury lawsuit. If you were not at fault in the accident, this is not only compensation you deserve but also the financial security you need. Serious or catastrophic injuries can occur in just about any circumstance. They can happen while you’re walking down the street, driving on the road, doing your job, or working in the kitchen. Severe injuries can include the following: While severe injuries most often result from motor vehicle accidents, these aren’t the only cause. Some of the types of cases that Hawk Legal and the lawyers who work with us handle on behalf of severe injury victims include: When these devastating injuries are due to someone else’s negligence or recklessness, you have the right to be compensated for your losses. If your injury happened at work, your case would likely be covered by worker’s compensation, but there is no guarantee the system will pay you the benefits you need and deserve. Our workplace accident attorneys can help with your Alabama worker’s compensation case. When another party was responsible for your injury, you have the right to file a personal injury case. When the injury is catastrophic, the potential award can be even higher. In short, you are entitled to make a claim for damages that include current and future medical care, lost wages, lost earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of consortium. In some rare cases, a court might even award punitive damages to “punish” the at-fault party. A critical mistake we see too often is severe accident victims rushing to settle their personal injury cases. Either they just want the ordeal to be “over” or falsely believe that insurance companies are on their side. When a serious injury happens, this becomes a marathon and not a race. Instead of jumping on the first settlement offer, it’s vital that you understand the full gravity of your situation and the extent of your injuries so that you receive a fair settlement. This can take time. Insurance companies might seem like they have your best interests in mind, but they frequently are only interested in protecting their bottom line. These are for-profit companies that prey on inexperienced accident victims by either denying claims or offering settlement figures that are well below what the case is worth. We and the skilled and dedicated Alabama personal injury attorneys that work with us represent clients who have suffered severe injuries in an accident. Our legal team has the resources and experience to pursue the most challenging personal injury cases. If you or someone you care about has suffered a serious injury due to another person’s misconduct, carelessness, or recklessness, you may be eligible for compensation.
