What is a Catastrophic Injury?
How can you determine whether or not the injury you endured in a recent accident counts as catastrophic? While there’s no definitive answer, there are some injuries that have a more concrete impact on your quality of life than others.
If an injury makes it impossible for you to complete tasks that used to be easy or requires intensive care to recover from, you may have the right to classify it as catastrophic. Some of the most common catastrophic injuries include the following:
- Burn injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Temporary or permanent paralysis
- Injuries requiring amputation
- Damage to your internal organs

Get a Doctor to Categorize Your Injuries
If you or someone you love suffers a catastrophic injury, go to the doctor right away. Working with medical professionals after a serious accident allows you to do more than prioritize your essential healthcare. Emergency responders and other medical professionals are among the first parties who can classify your losses as catastrophic.
You can later call on medical professionals and emergency responders for support while arguing for catastrophic injury compensation.
If you lose a loved one due to a catastrophic injury, testimonies from emergency responders and other parties can emphasize that your loved one’s condition directly contributed to their untimely passing. Our Woodinville catastrophic injury attorneys can help you contact the right parties and take their statements.

How Can a Woodinville Catastrophic Injury Lawyer Help You After an Accident?
It costs a lot of money to recover from a catastrophic injury. Unfortunately, these injuries can do more than force you to deal with new physical limitations. They can also make it impossible for you to return to work, thereby limiting your income and making it harder for you to pay your bills.
If you want to financially recover from your losses, it’s in your best interest to hold the party responsible for your catastrophic injury accountable for your financial recovery.
You can do this by filing an insurance claim with a relevant provider or by filing a personal injury claim against the party liable for your losses.
Experienced catastrophic injury attorneys in Woodinville can help you with both of these processes. We can gather the data needed to build your case without infringing on your right to rest and recover.
We can also file your essential paperwork before Washington State’s statute of limitations (Wash. Rev. Code § 4.16.080(2)) expires.
We Find Evidence to Hold Insurers Accountable for Your Losses
Whether you’re filing a catastrophic injury claim with an insurer or bringing your case to the attention of a civil judge, you need enough evidence to prove that:
- Someone else owed you a duty of care at the time of your accident.
- Someone else violated that duty.
- That violation resulted in your catastrophic injury and subsequent economic losses.
The evidence you use to make these points will vary based on the nature of your accident as well as the nature of your injuries. However, that evidence isn’t easy to gather when you’re contending with new physical limitations.
Working with an attorney allows you to connect with professional investigators who can spearhead a closer look into your accident on your behalf.
Professional support means that you can secure witness statements, photos, video footage, electronic data, and even physical debris proving that you have the right to take action against a specific party after your accident.
Our attorneys can keep you in the loop as our investigation progresses and outline why we can hold certain parties liable for your losses.

Our Woodinville Catastrophic Injury Lawyers Work on Contingency
You don’t have to put down a deposit to start working with Phillips Law Firm. We don’t believe in letting financial barriers prevent you from getting the support you need to hold the right people responsible for your losses. That’s why our team works on a contingency fee basis.
Our contingency fee agreement states that we will only get paid once we secure the settlement you need to recover from your losses. In the meantime, you can benefit from our representation without paying a retainer. We won’t even send you bills while your case is in progress.
Once we secure the catastrophic injury settlement you need, we will take an agreed–upon percentage of your final settlement. You can discuss what that percentage might look like during your free, no-obligation catastrophic injury case consultation.
