Types of Personal Injuries

Catastrophic Injuries & Personal Injury Claims

There are numerous different types of injuries that our firm is able to help with. We know that regardless of the exact injury that you sustained, it is likely that you are not only experiencing serious physical pain, but also emotional distress and fiscal strain as well. It is for this reason that we remain dedicated to ensuring that our clients have the reliable assistance that they truly deserve after an accident. If you have been a victim of the following, or any type of serious injury that could have been prevented, we encourage you to call us today:

Back Injury

Due to the size of the back and complexity of the muscles, bone and nerves that encompass it, any type of injury that focuses on this area of the body can be severe. If you have sustained a back injury from heavy lifting at work, a serious motor vehicle accident or from any other type of accident, you deserve to have your rights legally protected under the law.

Birth Injury

At Zinda Law Group, we strongly believe that the birth of a child should be a joyous celebration. We, however, are also aware that this is not always the case. In cases of negligence or delivery room error, there are instances where the child has suffered from improperly used forceps, lack of oxygen or other types of birthing injury.

Broken Bones

Although a fairly common injury, broken bones and fractures should not be taken any less seriously. Especially should the bone that is broken be something significant, such as the spine, pelvis or leg, you could require surgery for treatment and could be unable to return to work for a while, if ever. In these cases, you deserve compensation to cover these damages.

Burn Injury

A burn injury can range from first degree to third degree – one thing, however, remains the same and that is the severe physical pain and the psychological trauma that can stem from scarring and disfigurement. For burns that result in surgical means of treatment and skin grafts can be costly and can cause the plaintiff to be saddled not only with the pain, emotional distress, but also the cost.

Catastrophic Injuries

While no injury is ever desired, should a plaintiff sustained an injury that results in time lost from work, life-altering pain and long-lasting consequences, it could be deemed as ‘catastrophic.’ These types of injuries include brain damage and life-threatening illnesses.

Cerebral Palsy

The injury of Cerebral Palsy is a type of birthing trauma that affects the brain, as well as the nervous system. This can result in weakness, difficulty moving and a complete loss of coordination and / or movement. This is considered a non-progressive disease and there is currently no cure.

Child Injury

Statistics show that a harrowing 6,000 children die every year as a result of an injury – and over 14 million suffer injuries that do not result in death. Unfortunately, a vast majority of these child injuries could have been prevented had the proper care and caution been taken. From defective toys to inadequate security at pools and even blind cord strangulation, these are tragic accidents.

Mesothelioma

Exposure to asbestos at a job site or in home construction has been linked to the causing of mesothelioma, a cancer affecting the lungs and stomach lining. This is a serious type of illness that can become apparent as late as 50 years after the exposure and it is therefore extremely important that you get representation on your side that you can trust to deal with the legalities of this type of claim.

Spinal Cord Injury

Due to the importance of this body part, any spinal cord injury is serious and should be treated seriously. Should the damage be severe enough, a spinal injury could result in paralysis – either complete or incomplete. This is life-altering and will require that the victim not only acquaints themselves to an entirely new skill set, but also causes them to suffer from emotional and physical pain.

Traumatic Brain Injury

If you or a loved one have sustained damage to your brain, you should not hesitate to consult with a knowledgeable lawyer. stemming from blunt force trauma, penetration and other can result in difficult to maintain employment and can even lead to a risk of serious disorders such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and epilepsy.
