Getting The Legal Perspective on Car Accidents – Audio Interview
Car accident lawyer Darryl Isaacs — The Hammer — sat down to address legal and safety considerations when injured from a car crash in a recent radio episode of “Ask The Hammer,” the podcast exploring the legal matters that matter most. There are many elements at play when knowing what to do after a car accident. Listen to the episode directly below.
Defining a Catastrophic Injury
The exact nature of a catastrophic injury varies. A wide range of injuries can fit into this category. But generally, these types of injuries leave you with severe disabilities or deformities. For example, after a catastrophic injury, you likely would be unable to work at your old job or perform your day-to-day activities like you used to.
For example, let’s say you experience a fall that causes a detrimental head injury. Because of the injury, you cannot think and process information in the same way. You have to have more people to help you perform simple tasks, and you need special tools and services to communicate with others. You can no longer work at your job and are trying to get disability payments. This type of injury would be a catastrophic injury.
Or, let’s say you were hurt in a significant work accident, where both of your legs were amputated. You cannot walk and have to use a wheelchair to get around. You have a reduced ability to earn money the way you used to. This would be another example of a catastrophic injury.
And suppose someone else was responsible for your accident. In that case, you may be able to recover compensation to help with some of your costs.

What Sort of Compensation Can I Recover in a Catastrophic Injury Case?
You likely have extensive costs after your injury. For example, you likely have extensive medical bills from the emergency treatment you received and corrective surgeries. But you likely have other medical costs, such as from your physical and occupational therapy, counseling and rehab sessions, and new medications you have had to take to help with your symptoms.
But your costs probably don’t stop at medical treatment. You likely also have renovation costs from working to make your living space handicap accessible. And you now are unable to make money at the job where you used to work.
Compensation from a catastrophic injury case can help cover some of these costs. But there are non-tangible losses you have experienced as well. For example, maybe you are now unable to do or enjoy things you used to be able to do. Perhaps you have experienced severe mental and emotional pain and anguish. Compensation can also be related to these intangible losses.
Why Should I Work with a Catastrophic Injury Lawyer?
Catastrophic injury cases are often complex, so it can be challenging to handle your case independently. Working with an attorney increases your chances of getting a fair settlement in your case. An attorney will also be well-versed in the laws that apply to your case and the legal process, making their help a valuable resource.
You also have a limited time to file a catastrophic injury lawsuit. In Kentucky, you usually have about one year to file a lawsuit in a catastrophic injury case under Ky. Rev. Stat. § 413.140(1). A lawyer can help you fill out all the related paperwork so that you do not miss any deadlines related to your case.
Overall, getting legal help can make the entire process of your case go more smoothly and allow you to focus more on recovery.
