What Is a Catastrophic Injury?
A catastrophic injury is one that causes long-term or permanent damage. It can change your physical appearance and ability now and in the future. It can also cause emotional and psychological trauma. Recovering from significant injuries is a complex process and can vary greatly depending on their severity.
Catastrophic injuries include:
- Loss of a fetus
- Full or partial paralysis
- Brain or organ damage
- Head and neck injuries
- Back and spine injuries
- Broken bones and amputations

According to recent Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) statistics, there were 24.8 million physician office visits and 97.9 million emergency room visits due to accidental injuries in 2018.

How Much Time Do I Have to File a Lawsuit?
Because your accident occurred in Indiana, you generally have two years to file your personal injury lawsuit, according to IC § 34-11-2-4. The statutory clock on your right to file starts running on the date of the accident.
Failure to comply with the filing deadline could prevent you from obtaining the compensation you would otherwise have been entitled to receive. When our law firm handles your case, we make sure it is filed within the allotted time.
