What to Do in a Rear-End Accident
Treatment, Losses and Compensation
Many rear-end accidents result in injuries that have very long recovery times. Discovering the full extent of your injuries and getting treatment can take a long time. While all this is going on, it is common for insurance companies to attempt short-circuiting your recovery. They try to settle quickly, before everything is discovered and all losses understood. But short-term relief isn’t always the best course.
The right attorney can help you win a settlement that is fair and appropriate to your losses, not what your insurance company wants to pay. Expert representation can help you recover for all damages and medical costs, as well as lost wages. Every accident victim deserves the means to make a full recovery. Call 855-GOT-SOBO to talk to an injury lawyer today.
Important Information You’ll Need:
- Insurance: After your accident, keep a record of every interaction between you and your insurance company after filing a claim. This will help your attorney better understand how your insurance will plan to negotiate moving forward.
- Medical Records: If you have been cared for immediately after the accident, we’ll help collect your medical records from your healthcare provider(s). These records include medical services relating to ongoing testing, surgeries, physical therapy, rehabilitation, and any other procedures relating to healing from your injury. This will be useful to you for your recovery process, and provide crucial evidence for the case.
- Lost Wages: If your injury has kept you from returning to work for any length of time, you may be eligible to recover lost wages. Keep track of all the days you missed as a direct result of your accident, so your attorney can help you maximize your settlement to cover all wages lost.
What You Need to Know: Rear-End Collision Facts
- Rear-end accidents are the most frequent type of motor vehicle collision in the US
- Most rear-end accidents do not prove fatal. However, injuries from rear-end accidents result in an average of 2.5 million ER visits each year
- The most common injuries from rear-end collisions include whiplash, bone fractures, internal injuries, contusions, and muscle and ligament strains
- Whiplash is one of the most common and long-term injuries obtained from rear-end collisions. A whiplash injury can result in fractured bones, torn ligaments, and discs—all of which can cause pain for months to years after an accident.
- New York is a “pure comparative fault” state. This means that New York drivers cannot simply sue another driver who they believe caused an accident, without first proving that the accident caused severe injuries such as broken bones.
