What Are Common Injuries Associated With A Serious Car Accident?

The severity of a car accident depends on factors like the speed of impact, seat belt use and more. Common injuries include:

• Head and brain injuries, such as concussions, skull fractures and traumatic brain injuries
• Neck and spinal cord injuries, such as herniated discs and cauda equina syndrome
• Chest injuries, including broken ribs, internal organ damage and collapsed lungs
• Pelvic fractures and dislocated arms, legs, hands and feet
• Burn injuries, including thermal burns from fires or explosions and chemical burns
• Facial and dental injuries, including broken eye sockets, broken jaws and broken teeth

In the worst cases, the trauma of a serious car wreck can lead to death. It is essential to have a skilled lawyer representing your interests when the injuries are severe or fatal.

What Are The First Things You Should Do After A Car Accident?

If you are in a serious accident, the first thing you need to do is call 911 and seek assistance from first responders. Get checked out at a hospital even if you think you are just bruised because many serious injuries manifest with delayed symptoms. Then, seek the services of a trusted lawyer who can represent you before the insurance companies involved and protect your interests.
