Understanding Catastrophic Injury

Catastrophic injuries are severe injuries that result in long-term or permanent disability, disfigurement, or functional impairment. They can be caused by car accidents, slips and falls, medical malpractice, workplace accidents, and more. Catastrophic injuries can lead to a wide range of physical, emotional, and financial challenges. A catastrophic injury lawyer can help you understand your legal rights and options and work to build a strong case on your behalf.

Investigating Your Case

Catastrophic injury lawyers conduct thorough investigations to determine who is responsible for the injury and the extent of damages incurred. They gather evidence, interview witnesses, review medical records, and consult with experts to form a complete picture of your case. They also work closely with insurance companies to strategically negotiate a fair settlement that best represents your interests and needs.

In the event that a mutually agreeable resolution cannot be reached, they are prepared to skillfully advocate for you in court, ensuring that your case is presented and your rights are protected.

Negotiating a Settlement

Catastrophic injury lawyers are skilled negotiators who know how to push for a fair settlement. They fight for your rights and interests and can help you get compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages.

In addition to handling communication with insurance adjusters, they also take care of all the necessary legal paperwork, ensuring that every document is filed correctly and all the required information is accurately documented. This attention to detail and thoroughness allows them to effectively navigate the complexities of insurance claims and provide comprehensive support to their clients.

Representing You in Court

Catastrophic injury lawyers are prepared to take your case to court if the other party doesn't agree to a fair settlement. They have the experience and resources to present your case effectively to a judge and jury and fight for the compensation you deserve. They can also help you understand the legal process and what to expect during litigation.

Providing Support and Guidance

Catastrophic injury lawyers provide more than just legal representation. They are there to support and guide you through the challenging time after a catastrophic injury. They can connect you with medical specialists, financial advisors, and support groups to help you get back on track. They can also answer your questions, address your concerns, and offer emotional support.

Fighting for Your Future

A catastrophic injury can permanently alter the course of your life. It can affect your ability to work, care for yourself and your family, and enjoy the activities you once loved. A catastrophic injury lawyer understands the long-term impact this type of injury can have and will fight for your future. They will work tirelessly to ensure that you receive fair compensation to cover current and future expenses related to your injury. With a catastrophic injury lawyer by your side, you can focus on healing while they handle the legal aspects of your case.

Catastrophic injuries can be life-changing events, but you don't have to face them alone.

The driver was detained as part of the investigation. By Thursday, authorities confirmed the arrest of 62-year-old Steve Read of Sacramento.

Driver in Critical Condition After Driving Off Overpass in Sacramento, California

By Frank Penney • February 20, 2025

A vehicle plunged off an overpass onto Interstate 5 in Sacramento’s Natomas area on Monday afternoon, leaving the driver in critical condition. The California Highway Patrol responded to the scene around 12:52 p.m., near the offramp for West El Camino Avenue. The crash occurred while Kyman Jeung was driving northbound on I-5, heading home. He said the incident unfolded in what felt like slow motion, with the vehicle and debris falling onto the freeway just seconds ahead of him. Jeung had little time to react as he quickly maneuvered through the debris, including tree parts scattered across the road. Hours after the crash, locals noticed remnants of debris still on the overpass and in nearby tree branches. Sacramento Police confirmed the driver who fell from the overpass was the only person taken to the hospital. West El Camino Avenue was closed temporarily between Gateway Oaks Drive and Azevedo Drive while emergency crews worked at the scene. The road fully reopened around 3:15 p.m. Thankfully, no other drivers were injured, though Jeung expressed how fortunate he and others were that the vehicle didn’t land on them.
