Catastrophic injury generally refers to injuries that severely injure a person and require ongoing medical treatment, multiple surgeries, and may lead to permanent disability or long-term disfigurement. Paraplegia, a catastrophic injury, is a partial or complete paralysis of the lower half of the body due to a spinal cord injury. Tetraplegia, which is also known as quadriplegia, is a catastrophic injury that results in paralysis of both the upper and lower body.
Catastrophic injuries such as paraplegia, tetraplegia, and quadriplegia may be caused by several different types of accidents, including any of the following:
When an accident occurs because a person or entity was negligent, careless, or reckless and that accident results in a catastrophic injury such as paraplegia, tetraplegia, or quadriplegia, the injured party is protected under personal injury law. To learn more about the protections provided under personal injury law and how they pertain to your accident, contact The Epstein Law Firm, P.A.
When negligence, recklessness, or irresponsible behavior causes an accident and someone is injured as a result, the injured person may file a personal injury claim seeking to recover damages. “Damages” is a term that is used to describe the compensation that an injured person may receive for the losses they sustained as a result of the injury.
In the case of a catastrophic injury, such as paraplegia, tetraplegia, and quadriplegia, the losses sustained are usually significant. The injured person may seek to recover any of the following losses and more:
Catastrophic injury claims are more complicated than standard personal injury claims. Catastrophic injury claims must be strong to prove the extent of the injuries and successfully recover losses that are so significant.

Every state establishes its own legal time limits for filing claims in the civil courts, which are known as “statutes of limitations”. In New Jersey, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims — such as a claim for a catastrophic injury — is two years from when the injury occurred. It is important to understand the seriousness of this legal deadline. If a personal injury claim — for a catastrophic injury or another injury — is not filed before the two-year deadline expires, the New Jersey court may refuse to hear your case. If this happens, you will have lost your opportunity to recover damages for your injuries and other losses. If you are unsure of whether you can meet New Jersey’s deadline for filing a personal injury claim, speak to an experienced accident attorney.
When filing a claim for losses that are the result of a catastrophic injury, some of the losses endured may be immeasurable — such as the loss of one’s quality of life, or emotional and physical pain and suffering. To determine the level of compensation one may be eligible to receive for these immeasurable losses, lawyers, judges, and juries consider various factors and then assign a monetary value to those losses.
