Anoka Catastrophic Injury Attorney
Helping Those with Catastrophic Injuries Receive Compensation
Although any injury can be life-changing, some are serious enough to be classified as “catastrophic.” Generally speaking, a catastrophic injury is one that is permanent, significant, and results in considerable economic and non-economic damages. These injuries are more severe than other types of injuries, often leading to higher medical bills, greater lost income or wages, and more significant effects on the lives of victims and their loved ones.

Seeking compensation for a catastrophic injury takes an experienced and knowledgeable attorney, one who has successfully handled these types of personal injury cases before. At Bolt Law Firm, our Anoka catastrophic injury lawyers have successfully fought on behalf of severely injured victims and their families, recovering millions of dollars on their behalf. We understand what it takes to prove your case and are prepared to aggressively advocate for the maximum recovery you are owed.

What Is a Catastrophic Injury?
A catastrophic injury is a very severe injury that typically results in permanent injury, impairment, or disability. Catastrophic injury victims typically experience a lifetime of pain, complications, and limitations as a result of their injuries.
Some examples of catastrophic injuries include:
- Back injuries
- Broken bones/fractures
- Burns
- Scarring and disfigurement
- Internal injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Whiplash/neck injuries
- Amputation/loss of limb
- Eye injuries and vision loss
- Hearing damage and loss
- Chronic illness
- Medical conditions expected to result in death
If you or someone you love has sustained a severe, life-changing injury, you do not have to face the immense physical, mental, and financial challenges resulting from the injury on your own. By filing a catastrophic injury lawsuit against the liable party, you can seek financial compensation for economic and non-economic damages, including medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering.
When someone else is to blame for an injury-causing event, they can be held legally responsible for the victim’s resulting damages.
Common Causes of Catastrophic Injuries
Catastrophic injuries result from all types of accidents and traumatic events. Some of the most common causes of catastrophic injuries include:
- Car, truck, motorcycle, and other motor vehicle accidents
- Bicycle and pedestrian accidents involving motor vehicles
- Falls, including slip and falls and falls from heights
- Recreation accidents, including boating accidents and swimming/diving accidents
- Sports-related accidents, including youth sports accidents
- Workplace accidents, including construction accidents
- Dog attacks and bites and other animal attacks
- Violence and criminal activity, including assault and battery
- Explosions and fires, as well as electrocution
- Dangerous property conditions and hazardous premises
- Medical malpractice and/or negligence
- Defective products, including consumer and industrial products
Why Hire a Catastrophic Injury Lawyer?
As previously mentioned, catastrophic injury cases are not the same as standard personal injury claims. Victims typically experience far more extensive damages. Insurance companies and other liable parties know that catastrophic injury claims tend to be high in value, meaning they are much more likely to dispute or deny these claims. We take great pride in representing people from all walks of life and always prioritize the needs of our clients. It is incredibly important that you work with a knowledgeable attorney, one who has experience specifically handling catastrophic injury cases like yours.
When you trust your case to our team at Bolt Law Firm, we typically:
- Meet with you in person, over the phone, or via video conferencing to learn the details of your situation at absolutely no cost to you
- Learn how the injury has affected your everyday life, as well as your future, including all past, current, and future challenges you have faced/are facing
- Conduct a full and immediate investigation into the event that caused your injury, including how it happened and who is liable
- Handle all communication with the insurance company (and/or another liable party) on your behalf so that you can focus on your physical recovery
- Work with accident reconstructionists, medical professionals, and other industry experts to evaluate the cause, nature, severity, and effects of your injury
- Meticulously gather all available evidence and submit necessary paperwork and documents in support of your claim
- Prepare you and your case for litigation and trial, if necessary, as well as represent you in all related court proceedings
- Answer any questions you may have, as well as address all of your concerns, throughout the entire legal process
