Contact a whiplash injury lawyer today

A whiplash injury is one of the most common forms of injuries to happen to people involved in a car accident. In an accident where a car has a sudden acceleration or a sudden stop, a whiplash injury can afflict the head and neck. Hence, the reason this injury is sometimes referred to as acceleration/deceleration syndrome.

Whiplash damage occurs when the head is thrown violently back, forward or even sideways, which usually is followed by a reflex contraction in the opposite direction. Often, swelling and inflammation arise because of damage caused by the rapid movement of putting pressure on the nerves that cause pain and discomfort.

The treatment for a whiplash injury can be very costly. Therefore, if you or any of your loved ones has suffered from a whiplash injury, you are best advised to contact a whiplash injury lawyer with Jim S. Adler Associates, a top personal injury law firm in Texas.

A whiplash injury lawyer will investigate and check medical records

A whiplash injury lawyer will help you to pursue a whiplash injury claim by checking all medical records made after the accident, thus establishing the extent of the post-accident medical condition. The lawyer also will analyze the accident, and collect further proof and evidence.

If you or a loved one is involved in a car accident due to another person’s negligence, and that accident has caused a personal injury, you can make a claim for compensation with the help of a whiplash injury lawyer.

The amount of money you may get in a claim will depend on the severity of the injury. Other factors can be the length of the overall recovery period and the presence or absence of a long-term symptom or disability.

Neck strains or whiplash injuries are common

Most cases occur in rear-impact collisions, but side-impact collisions that cause the head to move violently from side to side also can result in neck strain. In fact, any car accident may cause neck strain injuries if the impact rotates or bends the neck.
