Brain Damage • Severe Burns • Paralysis • Eye Injury • Loss of Limb
When an accident causes catastrophic injury or permanent disability, a life is forever changed. The injured person may be unable to return to work or enjoy life the way he or she once did. Obtaining full compensation for these losses, as well as current and future expenses, requires an experienced personal injury lawyer.
Tampa, Florida personal injury attorney Michael Meksraitis has recovered millions of dollars in compensation for clients who have suffered catastrophic injuries due to the negligence of others. He represents clients in the Tampa Bay area and throughout South Florida who have suffered traumatic injuries:
He works with medical experts to get an accurate and complete diagnosis of the clients' injuries. He works with doctors and therapists to understand the full picture of how these injuries will affect the client in daily life. Depending upon the type of injury, this can be challenging. For example:
- Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD), severe pain or chronic, debilitating pain that continues long after the injury occurs, is often misdiagnosed
- The effects of brain damage resulting from head trauma or lack of oxygen from near-drowning can be immediately apparent but the symptoms may change with time, including personality change, loss of emotional control, and cognitive difficulties
- Burns from explosions, fires, and electric shock accidents will have lasting physical and emotional impact
- Spinal cord injury leading to paraplegia or quadriplegia will require adaptive equipment and changes to the home
Together, the medical and rehabilitation experts develop a life care plan that identifies the resources the client will need to maximize independence and physical recovery.
