WHAT YOUR CLAIM WILL DO Being injured is an experience everyone wants to avoid, but, unfortunately, injuries do occur. When they are catastrophic and life-changing, it is even more devastating, especially when those injuries are caused by another person’s carelessness. Not only does this place the victim in an immense amount of stress, but it also impacts their livelihood. In these types of situations, it is not uncommon for someone to want and need compensation for the losses they endured and will continue to experience for the rest of their lives. CATASTROPHIC INJURIES The injuries that qualify into the “catastrophic” area are those that permanently disable the person. Anyone whose injuries prevent them from returning to their normal way of life is considered to have a catastrophic injury. Several examples of these types of injuries include limb amputation, brain and head injuries, blindness, severe burns, organ damage, and spinal cord injuries. While, in some cases, a person may be able to physically recover from some of these injuries, it does not erase the damage done to both the body and mind.

BIRD-WATCHING FOR BEGINNERS
Why May Is the Best Month to Start
Bird-watching is like a lifelong scavenger hunt that you can play anywhere on Earth. The activity provides a mixture of science, travel, and beauty, and it’s a chance to get outside for feathered adventures and quiet reflection. The month of May is a great time of year to go birding because rising temperatures prompt spring migration. So if you’re eager to begin bird- watching, there’s no better time than now. Here are some tips to get started.
EDUCATE YOURSELF Thousands of species of birds span all corners of the globe. That’s why finding them is an exciting prospect — there’s no end to the hunt! Start by researching birds that are native to your location. Purchase a field guide with pictures of each bird and maps of their range and use it to figure out where different birds live. From there, it’s easy to pick your first spotting goal. You can even get yourself extra excited by watching a few bird documentaries.
GEAR UP One of the best things about
birding is that you don’t need a lot of equipment to do it. As long as you’ve got your field guide and comfortable walking shoes, the
only other thing you’ll need is a pair of binoculars. And they don’t have to be fancy. As long as they can zoom in on faraway trees and perches, they’ll work for now. You can always upgrade later. GO EXPLORING Your very first birding excursion is important because you don’t want to be overwhelmed or underwhelmed. So use your field guide to home in on a single bird and go find it. It may be local, or you can plan a trip to a specific
bird’s natural habitat. Stay focused and don’t get distracted by other species. The thrill that comes with spotting your first bird will keep you coming back to find the rest. Bird-watching is a wonderful hobby because it’s easy to get started and can last a lifetime. As long as you can walk, drive, or look out a window, you can be a birder. So what are you waiting for? Get out there and find some birds!
