NECK AND BACK INJURY-MODESTO, CA

Suffering From Back or Neck Injury Caused By an Accident?

Depending on how the accident happened, a neck or a back injury can take weeks and sometimes even months to fully appear. The injury can get more and more severe over time, even if you are taking proper care of yourself. That is why it is always a great idea to see a doctor immediately after your accident and follow his or her advice. Also, be careful about insurance companies offering you a quick settlement for your neck/back injury. Many adjusters will offer a quick settlement for cheap so that victims will take it and go away. If were in an accident and received an injury to your neck or back, you may be eligible to recovery for your pain & suffering, lost income, medical bills, etc.

The types of neck and back injuries that often occur as a result of an accident, and which may be eligible for a personal injury claim, include:

  • Damage to muscles, nerves, ligaments and tendons, referred to as soft tissue
  • Spinal Cord damage
  • Whiplash: this results when there is a sudden force that causes the neck to jerk backwards
  • Ruptured or Herniated discs
  • Paralysis: Quadriplegia or Paralegia
