Even minor injuries cause hardships. If you have kids, it’s difficult to manage routine, day-to-day activities. If your job is labor-intensive, you might have to miss work. Having someone on your side with personal injury experience makes all the difference.

We offer in-office, home, and hospital visits so if you need a lawyer, we’ll be there. Insurance companies will be working hard. We’ll be working hard for you.

Common Injuries in Personal Injury Accidents

Injuries from Accidents aren’t the only cause of a personal injury claim or lawsuit. There are times when you can be injured and there wasn’t a major event that happened. It’s common to associate a personal injury with a car accident or slip and fall, but injuries can, and often do, show up well after an accident or progress over time due to a certain condition.

A good example of this would be a repetitive strain injury from working conditions that didn’t take your health and safety into consideration. Or if you had been injured in an accident and developed other strains or injuries due to your body compensating for your first injury.

Here are Some Other Common Injuries to Consider That May or May Not be Due to an Accident:
