Car Accidents in California
Being hurt as a result of an automobile accident can forever change your life. Unfortunately, we see tens of thousands of people left with serious injuries following accidents in our state every year. Common injuries that car crash victims suffer from include:
- Head injuries: When victims suffer injuries to the head, they often experience an array of devastating symptoms. These injuries can include facial trauma, head trauma, traumatic brain injuries, skull fractures, and even orbital bone fractures. These injuries can be incredibly painful and result in life-altering consequences.
- Internal organ damage: Our bodily organs are critical. When one of them suffers injuries, it can have life-altering consequences. Victims who suffer from lung punctures, spleen ruptures, or even damaged kidneys can be forced to undergo surgery and be required to take medication indefinitely.
- Spinal cord injuries: Injuries to the spine are often critical. Car crash victims who suffer from these injuries often experience some extent of paralysis. There are instances where patients are left permanently disabled due to the paralysis that is caused by these injuries. There are also many cases where people suffer incomplete spinal cord injuries and have to go through rehabilitation for years after their accidents.
Any type of serious accident can result in devastating injuries for those involved. These and other injuries are not only painful and debilitating but incredibly costly to treat. Trying to overcome the financial burdens in the aftermath of an accident can be incredibly difficult. Fortunately, crash victims often have legal options that they can exercise in order to recover financial compensation for some of the damages they face following their accidents.
