Injuries Associated with Motor Vehicle Accidents
Though you may be a well-trained and highly skilled driver, driving a motor vehicle always poses certain risks. The average automobile’s size, weight, and construction only serve to dramatically expand the range of hazards that one might encounter in a car accident. Because of the severity of harm posed by a car crash, it is important that all motorists direct their full attention to the task of driving and exercise the utmost caution when behind the wheel.
If you have been injured in a collision that was caused by the negligence of another driver, it might be in your best interest to pursue a civil claim seeking financial compensation for your medical bills and other damages. Contact the Charleston car accident lawyers of the Steinberg Law Firm at 843-720-2800 to discuss your case with a skilled and experienced attorney.
COMMON CAR ACCIDENT INJURIES
There is typically a tremendous amount of force exerted upon a vehicle involved in a car accident and consequently on the occupants of the vehicle itself. The situation is even worse for pedestrians and cyclists who have fewer protections to insulate them from the effects of a collision. Common car accident injuries include:
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Severe lacerations
- Severe contusions
- Fractured bones
- Back and neck injuries
If you have been harmed by another party’s negligent actions, you do not deserve to live with the consequences. We can help you fight for the justice you deserve.
