Fractures

Posted by & filed under Uncategorized.

In the event that you or a loved one suffers from a fractured vertebra, skull fracture or another serious broken bone, it may be difficult to determine the extent of the damage immediately. This is because some fractures require surgeries that typically involve a metal plate and screws to repair the fracture. While there are others that unfortunately never recover from these life-changing injuries.

Some of the most common injuries occur from a motor vehicle accident, falls, and construction mishaps. As a result, it is important to contact an attorney to help determine the extent of lost earnings, compensation for pain, suffering, past and future medical bills. Some of these injuries that can lead to a personally injury case includes:

  • Open fractures
  • Closed fractures
  • Compound fractures
  • Hairline fractures
  • Simple fractures
  • Buckle fractures
  • Skull fractures
  • Comminuted fractures
  • Spiral fractures
  • Displaced fractures
  • Avulsion fractures
  • Fractures that require surgery in the form of open reduction and internal fixation (insertion of a plate and screws).
