Back Injuries
Back injuries commonly occur because of accidents and negligence, especially from car crashes, workplace incidents, motorcycle accidents, or slip and fall cases. These injuries have long term, painful and negative impacts on the quality of life. Common back injuries include fractured vertebrae, herniated discs, spinal cord injuries, and muscle sprains.
Both economic and non-economic damages are available when suffering a back injury. Economic damages cover medical bills, lost wages, and lost future income, while non-economic damages account for pain and suffering and emotional distress. In some cases, punitive damages may also be sought if the defendant’s actions were particularly egregious.
To bring a successful claim for a back injury requires obtaining comprehensive medical reports, tracking all related expenses, and maintaining records of how the injury has affected daily activities and work capacity. It’s important to note that factors such as comparative negligence (the victim’s potential partial responsibility for the accident) and efforts to mitigate damages can affect the claim’s value.
