If you have suffered connective tissue injuries in an auto collision, you may need to seek legal advice about how to proceed. Connective tissue injuries (or what insurance companies call "soft tissue injuries") can be debilitating even though they may be a challenge to document. A lawyer can assist you in pulling together all the information and documentation you will need when making a claim concerning the injury.

Of first importance is that you get the medical help you need. Injuries to your muscles or to connective tissue such as tendons and ligaments are more difficult to document than out-and-out bone fractures. But even though such injuries are not the easiest to document, a medical doctor can compare what you report to your previous health conditions and diagnose the injuries you have sustained.

Be sure to document as much of the incident where you were injured as is possible. If you are able, take pictures of the location and of all visible signs of your injury. But sure to keep copies of any paperwork your doctor gives you after you have been examined, including all prescriptions. Your lawyer will need these items as they prepare your case.

Whether your injuries are the result of an auto collision, a slip-and-fall incident, or an impact injury of some other sort, a lawyer can help you in dealing with the legal implications. You may need help in addressing your medical expenses, finding proper treatment for your injuries, and securing your lost wages. These difficulties are just the basic problems that can come from connective tissue damage.

We can assist you in filing your claims. We will go over each step of the matter with you, explaining any points that confuse you. If you have lost wages because of your connective tissue injuries, we will work to reclaim those funds on your behalf. We will endeavor to have your medical expenses and treatments covered as well as any property damages you sustained in the incident that caused the injury. Seeking legal advice is always a wise choice after a collision.
