If You’re Experiencing Neck and Whiplash Symptoms After a Car Accident, Contact the Adley Law Firm Today to Discuss Your Case and Settlement
Whiplash is one of the most common injuries from car accidents, and it can be extremely painful and debilitating. Insurance companies often downplay whiplash and try to limit compensation. That’s why you need an experienced car accident lawyer who knows how to stand up to them.
Attorney Kevin Adley of Adley Law Firm helps injured clients in Houston and the surrounding areas. He understands the difficulties that come with dealing with insurance companies after a crash. When they try to undermine your claim, Kevin Adley will fight back.
A Car Accident Can Result in Whiplash and Other Serious Injuries
During a collision, the sudden jolt can cause your head to snap back and forth, much like a whip. This motion overstretches the muscles, ligaments, and tendons in your neck, resulting in injury.
- Whiplash: This occurs when the head is violently thrust backward and forward, stretching the neck’s muscles and ligaments. Symptoms can include pain, stiffness, headaches, dizziness, and fatigue.
- Cervical Radiculopathy: This condition happens when a nerve root in the neck is compressed or irritated, often due to herniated discs or other spinal injuries. Symptoms may include pain, numbness, and tingling in the neck, shoulder, arm, or hand.
- Cervical Fracture: This is a break in one of the neck vertebrae and can be a serious injury with potential complications like paralysis. Symptoms include pain, swelling, bruising, and difficulty moving the neck.
Symptoms of whiplash and other neck injuries can be delayed, so it’s crucial to get medical attention after any car accident.
Get the Medical Treatment You Need to Recover
A doctor can perform a physical examination and order diagnostic tests like X-rays, MRIs, or CT scans. Depending on the injury, treatment might involve medication, physical therapy, rest, and in some cases, surgery. Medical costs can quickly add up, and missing work can create financial stress.
Kevin Adley can arrange for a medical lien to ensure you get the necessary treatment while he fights for the compensation you deserve.
Dealing with the Insurance Company for the At-Fault Driver
The driver who caused your injury might have been speeding, driving aggressively, or distracted. However, negligent drivers often deny wrongdoing, putting you in the position of proving their fault.
Insurance companies might not take whiplash claims seriously. They could question the severity of your injury, argue it was pre-existing, or offer a low settlement that doesn’t cover all your damages.
