Personal Injuries
Never Stay Silent When Suffering from A Personal Injury
Are you suffering from a back injury as a result of a fall caused by a negligent worker? Are you a patient who sustained an injury because of a nurse’s mistake? Suffering from a physical injury is not an easy situation to deal with. There are injuries and physical damages that can paralyze or completely change a person’s life. Accidents cause some artists to give up their craft. Accidents have rendered some dancers and acrobats unable to stand. Accidents have caused a number of young people to give up pursuing their dreams. The list could go on, and what’s even worse is that some of these are the result of others’ negligence.
Having a personal injury lawyer on your side allows you to make a more compelling claim for compensation for medical expenses, loss of earnings, or even emotional distress. You will be properly advised on how to proceed with the legal process of seeking justice. Personal injuries encompass a wide range of situations, each with its own set of regulations.
Types of Personal Injuries
Back Injuries
Many back injuries have been reported as a result of reckless driving and other accidents. The majority of these accidents fall into three categories: auto accidents, slip, trip, and fall accidents, and work-related accidents. The driver of the vehicle that collides with yours, or your driver, may be held liable for auto accidents. The owner of the premises where your accident occurred may be held liable for a slip, trip, and fall. Furthermore, your employer or a third party may be held liable for work-related accidents. Back injuries are a serious health matter because they can involve soft tissue injuries, vertebral fractures, herniated discs, or Sciatica. If you sustain these injuries as a result of the three aforementioned causes, get yourself a back injury lawyer to recover compensation.

Brain Injuries
Suffering from a traumatic brain injury can make life incredibly hard for the person. Severe brain injuries have long-term consequences for the victim. Traumatic brain is a condition caused by external physical forces such as a car accident, a fall from a high place, a gunshot, or abuse. According to the International Brain Injury Association (IBIA) of all types of injury, brain injury is most likely to result in death or permanent disability. Approximately 5.3 million Americans have disabilities as a result of brain injury. Seeking help from a personal injury lawyer is very important for those who suffer from brain injury.
Neck Injuries
Most neck injuries are caused by car accidents, sports accidents, slip and fall accidents, hit-and-run accidents, and workplace accidents. A neck injury is equally dangerous and damaging as it can be a ruptured or herniated disk, compression fracture, broken neck, and whiplash. More serious conditions can occur as the spinal column extends to the neck. If you have suffered such an injury, you should consult with a neck injury lawyer before signing any papers from insurance companies.

Catastrophic Injuries
Catastrophic injury is generally defined as a severe debilitating injury or a permanent injury that necessitates life-long care. Stroke, amputation, permanent neurological injury, paralysis, blindness, and deafness are examples of catastrophic injuries. These injuries can be caused by medical malpractice or errors, car accidents, unsafe working conditions, or defective products.

Spine Injuries
According to the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center, or NSISC, approximately 17,700 cases of spinal cord injury are reported each year. There are two types of spinal injuries: complete and incomplete.

With the assistance of a personal injury attorney, you will be guided on what legal actions to take.
