Catastrophic Injuries

Traumatic Brain Injury and Spinal Cord Damage Claims

Any motorcycle accident presents a real risk of catastrophic injury — physical trauma resulting in permanent disability or an uncertain prospect of full recovery. If you need advice about your right to compensation in a damages claim involving a traumatic brain injury, paralysis or severe burns, contact an experienced Cleveland personal injury attorney at Friedman, Domiano & Smith Co., LPA. We offer free consultations and accept cases on a contingent fee basis – we only collect attorneys fees if we recover damages for you.

Proving damages in a catastrophic injury case is one of our firm's strengths. In the most serious accident cases, the real question might well be how much the plaintiff will collect, rather than whether the defendant is liable. The amount of a personal injury award is usually contested just as vigorously as the fact of liability, and when the damages are significant, the stakes are much higher.

With years of trial experience in severe injury and wrongful death cases, we know how to document and present every element of a damages demand. We work with outstanding experts in several different fields to provide clear and persuasive evidence as to various aspects of our client's claim whenever a doubt is raised as to the extent of an injury, the need for future surgery or therapy, or the genuineness of a pain and suffering claim. We make sure that the defendant's insurer or a jury at trial knows and understands as much as possible about what you've been through and what additional challenges you'll face in the years to come.

In severe motorcycle accident cases, the most severe injuries generally involve moderate to severe traumatic brain injury, extensive spinal cord damage resulting in partial or complete paralysis, or complex trauma to the knee or leg resulting in amputation or substantial loss of function. Less frequently, severe burns or internal organ injuries might require years of treatment and convalescence.

Our law firm has achieved remarkable success for our clients for many years. Because of that success, we never need to compromise a client's case for the sake of collecting a smaller award sooner rather than a larger one later. Sometimes our clients themselves are under financial pressure to accept a lower settlement figure; we can advise you about your options at every stage of your case and help you find ways to resist the temptation to take an amount that is less than what you will ultimately need.
