Pedestrian Accidents
Being hit by a car causes great personal injury. The point of impact, which is often to the legs and hips, results in bone fractures, muscle and tendon tears and internal bleeding. The spine is often damaged together with the spinal cord. When the body is thrown the head is impacted leading to a traumatic brain injury. If the initial injuries are survived, there are often months to years of rehabilitation needs. Paralysis may require life-long personal attendant care. These types of accidents should always be evaluated by a catastrophic injury attorney who has experience with pedestrian accidents, car accidents, and wrongful death cases.
