Lesiones por Fractura de Huesos
A broken bone from a crash, fall, or other accident can mean surgery, long recovery, and time off work. When someone else’s negligence caused it, you can recover for your treatment, lost income, and pain. Protection Law Group represents broken bone victims across California on contingency: no upfront fees, and you pay only if we win.

Such injuries occur from motorcycle accidents, pedestrian accidents, truck accidents, bicycle accidents, and various forms of public transportation incidents.
La compensación por lesiones por fractura de huesos puede cubrir varios aspectos, incluyendo gastos médicos, dolor y sufrimiento, ingresos perdidos y otros costos asociados con el tratamiento y la recuperación. Las fracturas pueden llevar a lesiones internas que no son inmediatamente evidentes, lo que requiere exámenes médicos exhaustivos, incluidos rayos X, resonancias magnéticas y tomografías computarizadas.
Se pueden reclamar daños económicos y no económicos al sufrir lesiones por fractura de huesos. Los daños económicos cubren facturas médicas, salarios perdidos y pérdida de ingresos futuros, mientras que los daños no económicos tienen en cuenta el dolor y el sufrimiento, así como el estrés emocional.
