Title: Is Your Injury Could Mean A Very Long Recovery


1
Is Your Injury Could Mean A Very Long Recovery?
2

• In the immediate aftermath of a serious injury,
  it is not always easy to take stock of the many
  ways that your recovery may impact your life.
  Building a fair injury claim depends not only on
  providing clear documentation of the medical
  costs the injury incurs, but also the many other
  areas that suffer because of the injury.

• A settlement offer is just that an offer. You
  do not have to accept an offer if it does not
  truly address your needs fairly. Be sure that you
  fully understand how long your recovery may take
  and the ongoing needs your injury may create as
  you heal. If you accept too low a settlement
  offer, you may end up running out of compensation
  before you fully heal.

• Dont allow an insurer to push a low settlement
  on you because you need to pay hospital bills. In
  many cases, hospitals negotiate with patients or
  attorneys representing patients to allow
  flexibility in payment for this very reason.

How Long Will The Recovery Take?
Any insurer facing a serious injury claim wants
to keep the payout as low as possible, because
they are all businesses with bottom lines to
consider, and they find ways to avoid paying out
where they can. However you may feel about this
ethically, it is generally legal, but not a
practice you have to accept.
6
Will You Lose Some Functionality?
In many instances of severe injury, the victim
never regains full function. In your case, this
may mean the loss of mobility, or may
significantly impact your ability to do your
work. Always look carefully at the long-term
impact of any injury and include loss of function
and its effects on your future income or ongoing
needs in your claim.

Your future comfort and recovery depend on a
strong claim that fully demonstrates your
suffering and losses. Be mindful to use all your
resources to keep your rights and future secure
with a strong claim. You need an experienced
catastrophic injury attorney like The Weitz Firm
