Common types
of car accident claim injuries
Severe car accidents can lead to devastating injuries that drastically alter the lives of the victims and their families, necessitating significant compensation to ensure a stable, comfortable lifestyle post-accident. Here is a list of common severe car accident injuries involved in Texas crash claims and lawsuits:
- Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs). TBIs can range from mild concussions to severe brain damage, affecting cognitive functions, physical abilities, and emotional well-being. The cost of ongoing medical treatment, rehabilitation, and potential loss of income underscores the need for substantial compensation. Common TBIs include concussion, contusion, diffuse axonal injuries, and hematoma.
- Spinal Cord Injuries (SCI) and paralysis. These injuries are often a result of twisted, frayed, severed, or otherwise damaged nerves leading to partial or complete paralysis. For healthy, comfortable living, modifications to one’s home, long-term medical care, physical therapy, and assistive devices, which underscore the necessity of a significant financial settlement.
- Amputations. The loss of a limb not only brings physical disability but also emotional and psychological trauma. Prosthetics, rehabilitation, and adapting to a new way of life are costly, highlighting the importance of securing comprehensive compensation.
- Severe burns. Recovery from severe burns – second-, third-, and fourth-degree burns – may involve surgeries, skin grafts, rehabilitation, and counseling to address disfigurement and psychological impact, making a strong case for a substantial compensation package.
- Fractures and broken bones. Serious and compound fractures like those to the ribs, femur, or skull, may require surgical intervention and physical therapy. Even with the best medical attention, such injuries could develop into chronic pain or disability. This underscores the need for adequate compensation for medical bills and lost wages.
- Internal injuries. Injuries to internal organs may include punctures, internal bleeding, and ruptures. Whether to the stomach, lungs, brain, or another internal organ, these injuries can be life-threatening and may require surgical intervention and long hospital stays, necessitating significant compensation for medical expenses and ongoing care.
- Back and neck injuries. These injuries often lead to chronic pain, limiting an individual’s ability to work and perform daily activities, which in turn, demonstrates the need for compensation that covers medical treatment, pain management, and loss of income. Common types of back and neck injuries include herniated discs, spinal fractures, soreness, and whiplash.
Recovering from a severe car accident is a long, challenging process. However, with a lawyer who understands you and the full extent of how injuries affected your life, victims can be confident they are in the best position to recover the compensation they need to rebuild their lives and move forward with dignity and comfort.
