Mark Schiffrin P.A

Catastrophic Injury Attorney in South Florida

Compassionate Legal Help for Life-Altering Injuries in Hollywood, Miami, Fort Lauderdale & Nearby Areas

A catastrophic injury is more than just a serious injury—it’s a life-altering event that can leave lasting physical, emotional, and financial consequences. Whether caused by a car accident, fall, or defective product, these injuries often require long-term medical care, rehabilitation, and permanent lifestyle changes.

I’m Mark Schiffrin, a personal injury attorney based in Hollywood, Florida, and for over 35 years, I’ve been helping individuals and families in Broward, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach Counties navigate the difficult aftermath of catastrophic injuries. I personally manage each case with care, skill, and determination to secure justice and financial security for my clients.

 

What Is a Catastrophic Injury?

Catastrophic injuries are typically defined as injuries that prevent an individual from returning to work or performing essential life tasks. These often include:

  • Spinal Cord Injuries (paralysis, paraplegia, quadriplegia)
  • Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)
  • Amputations or loss of limbs
  • Severe burns or disfigurement
  • Organ damage
  • Loss of senses (vision or hearing)

These injuries may not only affect the victim—but their family, career, and quality of life. That’s why pursuing a full and fair recovery is essential.

 

Causes of Catastrophic Injuries

Catastrophic injuries can result from a wide range of incidents. I represent clients in cases involving:

  • Car accidents and truck collisions
  • Motorcycle crashes
  • Pedestrian or bicycle accidents
  • Slip and fall injuries on unsafe premises
  • Construction and workplace accidents
  • Defective products or unsafe machinery
  • Medical negligence

In every case, I investigate the full circumstances to identify liability and hold the responsible party accountable.

 

What Compensation Can You Recover?

When your life has been turned upside down by a catastrophic injury, you deserve more than just basic coverage for your losses. You may be entitled to:

  • Current and future medical expenses
  • Long-term care and rehabilitation costs
  • Loss of income and future earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional trauma and mental health support
  • Home or vehicle modifications for accessibility
  • Loss of enjoyment of life

I work closely with medical experts, life-care planners, and economists to build a strong case and pursue maximum compensation on your behalf.
