A personal injury accident can leave you seriously hurt

When people are hurt in an accident in Albany, they can suffer:

• Head and brain injuries – These can range from mild concussions to severe traumatic brain injuries (TBI). TBIs can cause a variety of long-term problems, including memory loss, difficulty concentrating, and personality changes.
• Neck and spine injuries – Whiplash is a common injury that can cause pain, stiffness, and headaches. Herniated discs can cause pain, numbness, and weakness in the arms or legs. Spinal cord injuries can lead to paralysis.
• Back injuries – These can range from minor muscle strains to severe fractures. Back injuries can cause pain, stiffness, and mobility issues.
• Broken bones – Fractures can occur in any part of the body, but they are most common in the arms, legs, and feet. Broken bones can cause pain, swelling, and bruising.
• Internal injuries – Organs in the body can be injured by blunt force trauma, such as a car accident, or by penetrating trauma from an object piercing the body.
• Burns – These can be caused by heat, chemicals, or electricity. Burns can range from mild to severe, causing pain, redness, and even scarring.

Get the compensation you deserve

As a result of your injury, you may have required surgery, hospitalization, medication, physical therapy, and home health care. Medical expenses can add up quickly, leading to financial stress.

If a negligent party caused the accident that left you hurt, you deserve financial compensation for the damages you suffered. This includes compensation for current and future medical expenses, lost wages if you couldn’t work, and other damages such as pain and suffering.

But the claims process can be complicated. Negligent parties deny doing anything wrong. And insurance companies are not on your side. Their goal is to try to find ways to pay you as little as possible. Insurance companies handle these types of claims every day, and they have the advantage. We can level the playing field.
