Tennessee Lawyer Seeking Compensation for Catastrophic Injuries
When you or a loved one suffers a catastrophic injury, you want help. You want answers. You want to hold the at-fault party responsible. At my Middle Tennessee law firm, I do all of these things for clients who have suffered a catastrophic injury as a result of negligence or misconduct.
I am attorney Rhonda R. Crabtree. A lawyer since 2002, I was also a mental health professional for 12 years. My education and experience in both areas allow me to build strong legal cases for clients, while helping them understand their options and how to start rebuilding their lives. I am here to help.
Causes of Catastrophic Injuries
Any accident that can cause wrongful death can, under different circumstances, cause catastrophic injuries. I help clients who suffer paraplegia or quadriplegia as a result of a spinal cord injury. I also represent people who have experienced traumatic brain and head injuries or amputation because of:
- Motor vehicle accidents
- Products liability accidents
- Construction accidents
- Nursing home negligence
- Dangerous or defective premises
Compensation After a Catastrophic Injury
Although not all cases are alike, successful personal injury claims may result in compensation for the following:
- Pain and suffering
- Medical bills
- Lost past and future income and earning capacity
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Disfigurement and disability
In addition to obtaining compensation, some victims may be able to obtain punitive damages for injuries caused by gross negligence. I advise clients about this and any issue related to a catastrophic personal injury such as paralysis, brain injury or amputation. I build strong cases by obtaining all relevant medical and billing records, deposing witnesses and assessing the true cost of the accident in consultation with life-care planners and other experts. My goal is to secure the resources you need to live as fully as possible after a catastrophic injury.
