Our Lawyer Understands the Cost of Prattville, AL, Catastrophic Injury Accidents
Catastrophic injuries are life-altering and often require extensive treatment, rehabilitation, and ongoing support. Many with catastrophic injuries require long-term care and assistance managing daily activities. Some types of catastrophic injuries include:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries
- Traumatic amputations
- Serious fractures and crush injuries
- Burns and disfigurement
For many hurt in Autauga and Elmore counties, Alabama, they receive their initial medical assessment and stabilization at Prattville Baptist Hospital. However, many victims with serious injuries require treatment at a facility listed as a designated trauma center by the Alabama Trauma and Health System (ATHS). The nearest trauma center to Prattville is the Level II facility in Montgomery, Baptist Medical Center South.
Ambulance or medevac transportation to the treating hospital, emergency department stabilization, surgery, treatment, hospitalization, inpatient rehabilitation, and other medical necessities all cost significant sums. The costs of managing catastrophic injuries grow exponentially in the first year after the accident, and many continue to have related expenses for the rest of their lives.
Our accident attorney will investigate your accident and compile a list of damages you are owed to determine what your personal injury case is worth.

Let Our Prattsville Catastrophic Injury Attorney Identify the Liable Party in Your Case
Our Prattville personal injury lawyer manages a wide range of accident and injury cases. Some of the ways our clients suffer catastrophic injuries include:
- Auto accidents
- Truck collisions
- Motorcycle crashes
- Pedestrian accidents
- Bicycle collisions
- Construction accidents
- Nursing home abuse
- Slip and fall accidents
- Dog bites
- Other premises liability accidents
All these accidents and incidents can occur because of someone else’s negligence. If we can show how another party’s careless actions or inactions caused an accident and injuries, we can hold that party—or another liable party—accountable and recover compensation. To win a case for our injured client, we must show the at-fault party:
- Owed you a duty of care
- Breached that duty
- Caused the accident and your injuries
- Caused physical, emotional, and financial harm to you
If you or a loved one is living with catastrophic injuries, let us review your case to understand what happened and who might be legally responsible. The liable parties in these cases could include:
- Drivers who violated traffic laws and caused accidents
- Distracted, speeding, drunk, or drugged drivers
- Property owners
- Nursing home administrators
- Doctors or other trained medical professionals
- Hospitals or clinics
- Dog owners
- Others who act negligently and cause injuries
See a Doctor Immediately and Take Notes
Following any accident, there are a couple of steps you should take to ensure your health and protect your rights. An accident that would cause catastrophic injuries will prevent you from taking some of these steps, so you can ask us or others to help:
- If you can, move to a safe location and call 9-1-1. If you need someone else to call, be sure they tell the operator what has happened and where you are.
- Have someone take pictures and videos of the accident scene. If you can, record what you can remember.
- See a doctor as soon as possible. Most likely, you will see an emergency room doctor and be admitted to the hospital.
- Follow your doctor’s treatment plans completely, and don’t miss any appointments.
- Contact us as soon as possible. We can handle all communication between you and the insurance company.
