Ryan’s life was transformed in an instant after a devastating crash that left him with a severe spinal cord injury. He faced challenges that went far beyond the immediate medical emergency. His recovery required extensive hospitalization, ongoing rehabilitation, specialized equipment, full-time attendant care, accessible housing and long-term psychological support. These needs were not temporary. They would extend across his entire life.

To ensure Ryan received the support he would need for decades to come, Oatley Vigmond catastrophic injury lawyers developed a comprehensive life-care plan that outlined every foreseeable requirement.
