W. Perry Zivley, Jr., has successfully handled catastrophic injury claims for over 20 years helping many clients obtain fair compensation for their personal injuries, damages and wrongful death claims. Zivley Law Firm emphasizes representation of serious personal injury claims and handles the following types of cases:

Catastrophic injuries are most often sudden and unexpected, yet have a tremendous impact upon victims and their family members. Imagine having a comfortable and secure occupation that supports the needs of your family and loved ones suddenly being destroyed. Zivley Law Firm has successfully represented catastrophic personal injury claimants throughout the State of Texas who have suffered paralysis, spinal injury, amputation, dismemberment, severe burns, orthopedic injuries and fractures, brain damage, birth defects, degloving injury or nerve injury.

Typically, when a catastrophic injury occurs, multiple medical systems can eventually fail or suddenly require treatment from a wide variety of health care providers such as physicians, skilled nursing caregivers, vocational and rehabilitation specialists and mental health counselors. Although a catastrophic injury claimant may be able to rehabilitate to a normal life with physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy, many victims will experience residual conditions and limitations such as disfigurement, physical impairment, permanent disability and reduced life expectancy.

Many lawyers only consider hard tangible damages in evaluating fair compensation for victims of catastrophic personal injury. Zivley Law Firm uses highly qualified expert witness testimony to develop and support evidence of intangible personal injury damages and future economic damages that a catastrophic personal injury victim will likely suffer – particularly damages that cannot easily be quantified or calculated otherwise. In order to demonstrate such damages Zivley Law Firm employs life care planning, vocational rehabilitation and economic experts to clearly demonstrate the economic impact and present value of such intangible damages. This ensures that the full measure of a client’s damages are properly considered and evaluated, which is an extremely important aspect of negotiating a settlement or demonstrating to a Court or Jury the existence and extent of intangible personal injury damages.

Often times the liability aspects of a catastrophic accident that causes serious personal injury and death are complex and complicated. In such a case, it is important to immediately collect and preserve information and data that will identity all potentially responsible parties. Zivley Law Firm employs seasoned investigators to promptly collect publicly available information, witness statements, physical evidence, photographic and videotape evidence and, if necessary, will store critical evidence that might otherwise be routinely disposed.

In the case of a potential products liability case involving a vehicle, most severely damaged vehicles are surrendered to an insurance company for salvage. By doing this one may unknowingly surrender critical evidence that could support a product defect case. With the stakes so high, you cannot afford to choose inexperienced counsel.  Prompt consultation with Zivley Law Firm on catastrophic and serious personal injury claims will ensure that all necessary and relevant evidence is collected and preserved so that your case will be completely developed and you will receive the full and complete compensation that Texas personal injury law permits.
