Common Injuries

Most Americans drive every day, but few think about the consequences of a car accident when they get into their vehicles. Unfortunately, accidents do happen and can happen to you.

We have handled cases involving these types of injuries and know how to protect you through a personal injury claim.

Types of Common Connecticut Car Accident Injuries

You may face a range of injuries after a car accident, but here are a few that we see frequently in our office:

  • Broken bones. Broken bones are a very common injury to sustain in a car accident. It is natural to try to brace yourself with an arm or a leg, which could result in a fracture or break. You could also break bones in an accident due to impact. Check out this page to learn more about breaking bones in car accidents and how to take action.
  • Disc injuries. Herniated discs happen frequently during car accidents. Unfortunately, even a minor disc issue could cause pain and limit your abilities for years to come. If you have sustained a disc injury in a car accident, you may need surgery, physical therapy, or medication to mitigate the damage and properly heal. It can be a long road to recovery. We are here for you on this journey.
  • Head and brain injuries. Head and brain injuries should always be taken seriously. If you think that you’ve sustained a head or brain injury after a car accident, it is important to see a doctor, even if you do not think anything is seriously wrong. These types of injuries range from contusions to concussions to brain hemorrhaging and could ultimately be very serious. Learn more on this page.
  • Neck and back injuries. The force of a car crash can do serious damage to your neck and back. From whiplash to herniated discs to even paralysis, you could face severe consequences as a result of a neck or back injury in a car accident. We provide more information on this page.
  • Soft tissue injuries. Soft tissue injuries are common in Connecticut car accidents because the body is usually jostled around upon impact. When your body parts hit other objects with force, you can sustain contusions, sprains, strains, inflammation, and more. Check out our page on soft tissue injuries for additional information.
