Common Types of Injuries from Accidents in Florida

All accidents are serious, but some require that you consult an injury lawyer

All accidents and injuries are serious matters to the victims and their families, but not all accidents lead to valid personal injury claims. This can be for legal or practical reasons. Even if your injury or accident meets all of the legal criteria for a personal injury action, the damages you have suffered might not be sufficient to make pursuing them through the legal system worthwhile. On the other hand, some seemingly common injuries are worthy of compensation.

Whatever injuries you have suffered in an accident caused by the negligent or reckless actions of another party, it is always worth contacting experienced injury attorneys about them. The Fort Lauderdale injury attorneys at Fazio, DiSalvo & Abers, P.A. possess considerable experience handling cases involving common accident injuries.

Contact our Fort Lauderdale back injury lawyers — even if you are not certain you have been injured

The disks between the vertebrae of the neck and spine are some of the most delicate parts of the human body. Any experienced car accident lawyer thoroughly understands how damage to these disks, or other areas of your back, can lead to lost time from work, reduced mobility and serious medical bills.

• Thoracic disks and lumbar disks, which are located in the upper and lower back respectively, are often damaged in accidents.
• Compression fractures are also common in accidents, and can lead to permanent disability.
• Herniations or bulges may lead to spinal cord compression.
• Spinal injuries can lead to limb weakness, paralysis and other symptoms, and may require surgery or spinal fusion to correct them.

Victims may not experience symptoms of back injuries until weeks, or even months, after an accident. Since delaying legal action can lead to your losing your right to receive compensation, it is essential that you speak to an experienced back injury lawyer as soon after your accident as possible.

Back injuries are not the only types of cases that personal injury attorneys and slip and fall lawyers handle. Other all-too-common types of personal injuries include:

• Concussions and traumatic brain injuries, which frequently take time to present symptoms
• Lacerations
• Broken bones
• Psychological damage, such as post-traumatic stress
