Central Florida Whiplash Injury Attorneys
Rear-end collisions are some of the most common types of automobile accidents. When an automobile is struck from behind, the driver and passengers can suffer neck injuries, back injuries and other injury to the spine. In many cases, the worst injuries are from secondary impact. This is when the body goes backwards, then quickly moves forward. For instance, you may have suffered a neck injury from the initial impact of the accident. Then, when moving forward, perhaps you struck the steering wheel, an airbag or another object.
Do Not Talk to the Insurance Companies by Yourself
When you have been injured in a rear-end collision, it may be tempting to handle your injury claim by yourself. After all, it is pretty obvious the other driver was at fault, right? At LaBar Adams, our Orlando Rear End Collision Attorneys would advise against talking to an insurance company until you have spoken to a personal injury lawyer first. First and most importantly, you may not fully realize the extent of your injuries. This is particularly the case with back and neck injuries which can get worse over time. If you except a quick settlement from the insurance company and your injuries get worse later, you cannot go back to an insurance company for more money. Our lawyers will work with your doctors to get a complete diagnosis of your injuries before we proceed in your legal claim.
Secondly, insurance companies are simply more likely to take your claim seriously if you have a lawyer at your side. Insurance companies may try to downplay your injuries. Our law firm understands that injuries from a rear-end collision can be serious. Even soft-tissue injuries can require some time to heal. Our auto accident lawyers will make a full demand for your damages. Our dedicated, tenacious approach can lead to success in both negotiations and when necessary, trial.
