What Is a Catastrophic Injury?
A catastrophic injury can be an ailment that is physically disabling, severely cognitively or emotionally disruptive, life-threatening, or serious for other reasons.
Examples of catastrophic injuries can qualify as:
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
- Internal bleeding
- Spinal cord injury (SCI)
- Amputation injuries
- Serious burns
- Injuries affecting vital organs
If an injury significantly interferes with your quality of life, it may qualify as a catastrophic ailment. Even if your injury does not fit the catastrophic description, every injury comes at a cost.

Pay Nothing Out of Pocket When You Choose AP Law Group - Personal Injury & Accident Attorneys
Let’s talk about contingency fees, which are the fee structure we use when leading catastrophic injury cases.
Unlike when a client pays their lawyer by the hour, a contingency fee means:
- As the client, you never pay out of pocket: AP Law Group – Personal Injury & Accident Attorneys receives a percentage of the settlements we negotiate and the verdicts we win. Our clients never pay us out of their pocket. We know how costly and financially unsettling a catastrophic injury is, and we designed this no-risk fee agreement with clients like you in mind.
- Your law firm (AP Law Group – Personal Injury & Accident Attorneys, in this case) must get results to get paid: Because we are paid out of your financial recovery, we must get a result to obtain our fee. In a world where value can be hard to come by, you should welcome this results-based fee agreement.
- Winning is not just in your interest, but in your lawyer’s too: You should know exactly what incentives your lawyer has. When we use a contingency fee structure, our incentive is to obtain as much compensation as we can for you—the more we secure, the more valuable our percentage of the recovery is.
Our firm is comfortable with tying our payment to the outcome of your case. We always plan to get a favorable result for our clients, and you should not have to pay a Houston catastrophic injury attorney unless they deliver compensation to you.

- Implementing your requests and feedback: We care what our clients think. While we are confident in our insights and abilities as attorneys, each client deserves a voice in their case.

Documenting the Effects of the Catastrophic Injury

With your permission, we may also use bank statements to prove you have lost income and experienced other financial losses due to the catastrophic condition.
Proving the Cause of the Injury (and the At-Fault Party’s Negligence)
Your or your loved one’s catastrophic injury happened for a reason. Your lawyer from AP Law Group – Personal Injury & Accident Attorneys will determine what that reason is, proving any negligence by the at-fault party or parties.
We will use any relevant video, witness statements, and other evidence suggesting that your injury may have been preventable (if only others were more careful in their actions).
Negotiating a Settlement After Determining Your Case Value
We bring experience and excellent care to our cases, but we also bring aggressive negotiation tactics—often, this is the approach that works. If liable parties are willing to negotiate in good faith, we will present the facts and fight for the deal you deserve.
We are always willing to represent clients with catastrophic injuries at trial if that is the strategy they want to pursue.
