Duncan Firm

In legal terms, personal injury refers to injuries to the body or to one’s emotional state of mind, caused by the negligence of another party. When building a personal injury claim, there are many factors our lawyers take into account when to determining how much your case might be worth, including:

Doctor and hospital bills
Time lost from work
Cost of ongoing medical care
Pain and suffering

All of these items factor in to how much an insurance company is willing to pay to settle a case. Duncan Firm attorneys possess the experience you need in establishing the value of your claim and then work hard to help you get the settlement you deserve.

In personal injury cases there are time limits for filing your case. If you or a loved one are injured through the fault of another, call Duncan Firm at (501) 228-7600 to start building your case.

Catastrophic Injury

A catastrophic injury or illness has an enormous impact on the lives of victims and their families. These tragic events usually occurs suddenly and with no warning. Such injuries can result in severe damage and disruption to an individual’s central nervous system, which then can affect many other parts of the body.

Examples of catastrophic injuries can include:

Brain injury
Spinal cord injury
Accidental amputation
Slip and fall
Severe burns
Multiple fractures
Neurological disorders
Burn injury

Catastrophic Injury Impact

The symptoms and conditions of a catastrophic injury are severe and often result in permanent disability requiring lifelong care. Such injuries cause loss of sensation and movement, brain damage that affects communicative and cognitive abilities, difficulty breathing, and impact to the urinary system, gastrointestinal system and other body systems.

Dealing with such an injury is complex and requires many different health professionals to manage. While recovery from catastrophic injuries is possible with early and proper treatment, others may have to struggle with a permanent disability, physical suffering and even a shortened life span.
