If you or a loved one has suffered catastrophic injuries in a car accident in the Houston area, you may be currently unaware of the financial responsibility that comes with the recovery process. When a person is involved in a serious accident, such as a car accident, they must be treated by an emergency medical response crew and be escorted back to the hospital in an ambulance. Next, emergency room doctors will focus all of their time and energy on ensuring that they survive through the first few hours and days of the recovery process, possibly performing emergency surgery.
Afterwards, during the main body of the recovery process, the victim will require rehabilitation therapy and medications to reduce pain or for other medical reasons. On top of all of this, the victim will also be unable to return to work for some time, putting even more of a strain on the financial impact. After the recovery process is complete, you will be left with all medical expenses, including the ambulance ride, surgical procedures, medications, rehabilitation, hospital stay, and in-patient and out-patient care.
You will also find the responsibility of paying damage to your personal property, such as your car, to be your own. Say, for example, that you have already taken all of your sick days and vacation days at your job; you will then be forced to take an unpaid leave of absence, deepening your financial mess. If you have been involved in an accident that resulted in catastrophic injuries, immediately talk to the Houston catastrophic injury lawyer from the Doan Law Firm. Your financial future will rely on your ability to recover financial compensation.
