Types of Injuries Suffered in a Car Accident

The types of injuries suffered in a car accident can vary immensely. Some victims are left with minor injuries, while others may experience loss of a limb, paralysis, or sometimes even death. No matter the circumstances, it is always best to consult with a car accident lawyer to get you through this difficult time. There are many types of injuries that one can suffer from, including but not limited to:

Lacerations and bruises: Lacerations and bruises caused by a car accident can be extremely painful, resulting in scars that may never heal.

Burn injuries: Burn injuries are another common injury caused by car accidents, which can leave life-altering, permanent scars and effects.

Spinal cord injuries and paralysis: Spinal cord injuries are extremely serious injuries that can potentially lead to paralysis, depending on the severity. Oftentimes, these injuries aren’t always immediately apparent, which is why it is paramount to get a medical exam after an accident.

Limb loss and amputation: Although limb loss and amputation are not as common in an accident, they do result in a life-long disfigurement for victims.

Neck injuries and whiplash: Car accidents can easily result in neck injuries due to rapid acceleration and deceleration, which can result in whiplash, herniated discs, neck features, and more.

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs): Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are extremely serious injuries that can result in lifelong, debilitating injuries. It’s important to know that these types of injuries are also not immediately apparent, which is why it is important to get a medical exam. If left untreated, a TBI can potentially worsen, depending on the severity.

If you have suffered any of the injuries mentioned above, or any other type of injury in a car accident, feel free to contact our team for legal help. We will do whatever it takes to provide you with the best medical care and legal help to get you through this difficult time.

Common Causes of Car Accidents

Unfortunately, there are many common causes that lead to car accidents on a daily basis. Here are some examples of some of the most common causes of car accidents:

Distracted driving: Distracted driving is one of the leading causes of all motor vehicle accidents. Distracted driving can include texting and driving, talking on the phone while driving, using social media while driving, and much more.

Driving under the influence: Impaired driving is unfortunately a very common cause of car accidents although it is illegal. It is never safe to drive under the influence, as it can easily result in a catastrophic accident.

Speeding: Driving over the speed limit results in limiting your time to stop when necessary and overall, is extremely dangerous. It is important to abide my speed limits to avoid an accident from occurring.

Bad weather conditions: Although bad weather conditions are out of our control, it is important to stay as vigilant as possible to avoid an accident from occurring. Take every precaution possible to avoid an accident occurring due to bad weather conditions.

Fatigue/drowsiness: Driving late at night or lack of sleep can result in driver fatigue or drowsiness, therefore, if you are feeling either of these, it is important to rest and take a break from driving.

While these are only a few of the causes, there are many other causes that can lead to an accident. If you are in need of a personal injury lawyer to represent you, contact our team today for a free consultation!

How Can a Car Accident Lawyer Help Me?

Being involved in a car accident involves a great number of stresses. You may be wondering how a car accident lawyer can help you with your case, or whether it’s a good idea to try to handle your case on your own. Below, you will find a list of just some of the ways a car accident lawyer can help you with your case.

Communicate with insurance adjusters: Your lawyer has the skills, knowledge, and expertise to communicate effectively with insurance adjusters to ensure the defendant’s wrongdoings are never overlooked. It is important to have a skilled car accident lawyer who knows what it takes to benefit your case in every way possible, rather than have insurance adjusters do whatever they can do to work against you.

Discover evidence to prove liability and damages: Car accident lawyers have the expertise it takes to successfully prove liability and damages, to ensure you receive the maximum compensation possible for your losses.

Review legal documents: It is important to have a lawyer on your side to review legal documents, to ensure nothing is ever overlooked and things are correctly reviewed, filled out, and filed.

Submit legal documents before deadlines: Deadlines are very tricky, especially when it comes to filing legal documents in time. Therefore, it’s important to have a lawyer on your side to ensure that everything is filed efficiently and in time.

Set up doctors’ appointments: Our team works closely with a great network of knowledgeable doctors and specialists. We will be able to set appointments up for you to ensure you are receiving the best medical care possible.

Organize medical records and bills: Obtaining, organizing, and recording medical records and bills is extremely important to your case. Our team is highly experienced in ensuring your medical bills and records are organized and accounted for.

Communicate with healthcare providers: Additionally, our team will communicate with healthcare providers to ensure you are receiving the treatment necessary, as well as obtaining medical bills and records necessary for a successful case.

Negotiate a full and fair settlement: We are highly skilled in negotiating a full and fair settlement with insurance adjusters. We know what it takes to prove a successful case to ensure you receive the best settlement possible.

Hiring a car accident lawyer is always in the best interest of victims. Why? Because victims inevitably experience an abundance of stress--from pain and suffering, to lost wages, loss of future earnings, medical bills, property damage, and much more. Our duty is to successfully prove these damages to the other driver’s insurance company. We have the experience and skill to recover evidence to ensure the maximum settlement possible. When victims attempt to settle their claim alone, they are jeopardizing the compensation that they truly deserve. It’s important to know that insurance companies are in the business to get victims the least amount of compensation possible and when they see victims trying to settle their case alone, they prey on that. They do so by using every single thing possible against them. When you have a car accident lawyer on your side, we know what to do, say, and argue to ensure nothing is used against you.

If you have been involved in a car accident, it is always best to consult with a lawyer before anything else. Our team will work diligently to ensure you get the justice you deserve. At The Law Offices of Haytham Faraj, we offer free consultations and work on a contingency fee basis. This means you don’t have to pay a thing unless we win. Contact our team today!
