Catastrophic Personal Injury Cases Handled by Houston Lawyer
As a Houston catastrophic injury lawyer, Jim Walker knows one of the true tragedies of life is that many people suffer catastrophic personal injury, but cannot recover adequately for their injuries. Legislatures throughout the country have imposed caps on "non-economic" damages, which can be ridiculously low. Ironically, studies indicate that huge jury verdicts are rare, and that most catastrophic personal injury victims are under compensated. By misrepresenting the exceptional case as the norm, insurance companies have successfully protected their wealth at the expense of society's most vulnerable injury victims.
The worst and most dangerous drivers often carry the lowest possible amount of insurance that the law allows, or carry no insurance at all. Few people would voluntarily allow themselves to suffer even a simple fracture of a bone, not even for tens of thousands of dollars. The amount of suffering that results from living a lifetime with disfiguring scars, or with a spinal cord or brain injury, is inconceivable. Our society really should do more to take care of its own -- to make sure that people who suffer catastrophic injuries do not effectively lose their right to a reasonably normal life, just because an insurance company successfully lobbied for damages caps on personal injury or malpractice actions.
If you or a loved one face recovery from a catastrophic personal injury, seek assistance from a Houston catastrophic injury lawyer who has experience with your type of injury, and who knows how to find every possible source of recovery. Even if you don't have a legal cause of action, catastrophic injury attorneys may be able to assist you in obtaining government benefits.
