Types of Boulder City Auto Accident Cases
Our experienced Southern Nevada personal injury lawyers have worked on all kinds of auto accident injury cases. The key to building a strong case towards financial compensation, however, is determining and proving causation. Some typical auto accident cases and their causes include:
- Rear-End Collisions: cases where one vehicle collides with the rear of another vehicle, often resulting from tailgating, sudden braking, or distracted driving.
- Head-On Collisions: cases involving two vehicles colliding front-to-front, typically caused by wrong-way driving, overtaking inappropriately, or crossing into oncoming traffic.
- Side-Impact Collisions (T-bone): cases where the front of one vehicle crashes into the side of another vehicle, usually occurring at intersections due to failure to yield or running red lights.
- Multi-Vehicle Pileups: cases where multiple vehicles are involved in a chain reaction of collisions, often occurring on highways or during adverse weather conditions.
- Pedestrian or Cyclist Accidents: cases involving collisions between motor vehicles and pedestrians or cyclists, often resulting in severe injuries or fatalities.
- Distracted Driving Accidents: Cases where drivers cause car wrecks due to distractions such as texting, using a smartphone, or adjusting the radio while driving.
Each type of auto accident case may involve unique challenges and legal complexities, necessitating a skilled personal injury lawyer to navigate the claims process, protect the rights of the injured party, and pursue fair compensation.
Compensation Available for Boulder City Car Accident Injuries
If another party (or parties) caused your car accident because of negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries to pay for past and future medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Common Types of Boulder City Car Accident Injuries
Car accidents can result in a wide range of injuries, varying in severity depending on the circumstances of the collision.
Some common car accident injuries and their effects include:
- Cuts, lacerations, and bruising. While you may not think that these injuries warrant a personal injury case, if they were caused by another’s negligent or reckless actions, you still may have compensation available to you. Cuts and lacerations can lead to permanent scarring, perhaps across the face. If the cut is deep enough, you may need skin grafts. Bruising can cause a significant amount of pain, and may lead to further injuries if you overcorrect your movements to avoid this pain.
- Concussions. While many concussions can heal on their own, the more you have the more damage they incur. Suffering another concussion may mean that you can no longer return to sports, which in certain cases could lead to a loss of an athletic scholarship and a loss of a future career. This is just one example of how a concussion can alter the rest of your life.
- Paralysis. Paralysis can affect any area down your spine. Some victims are paralyzed from the waist down, others from the neck down. Those who lose the use of both their arms and legs will need extensive, life-long medical care.
- Catastrophic injuries. Other catastrophic injuries may lead to a complete loss of independence or personality. You may lose your ability to retain memories or hold the job you worked throughout your career for.
- Burns. Burns happen in four degrees, each degree indicating a worsened severity. First degree burns are the least intense, but third and fourth degree burns leave scars and other devastating effects, like disfigurement, that you will need to deal with for the rest of your life.
The Boulder City car accident attorneys at Lerner and Rowe know how difficult it can be to recover from car accident injuries. We also know how essential it is to seek immediate medical attention after a car accident, even if injuries appear minor, as some injuries may not be immediately apparent or may worsen over time.
Prompt medical evaluation can also provide key documentation of injuries and as well as provide the necessary treatment, which may also be vital for any future personal injury claims to seek compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
