Importance of Medical Care

Neck injuries can worsen if not treated as soon as possible. In some cases, nerve damage causes a pain shut-off, so the brain is unaware of the injury. In other situations, a minor bone fracture or misalignment may go unnoticed for days, weeks, or longer, after which the pain and discomfort becomes unbearable. The first step is to undergo a comprehensive medical assessment. The medical reports are a critical aspect of the evidence presented to support your claim or lawsuit.

Common Causes of Neck Injury in Amarillo 

One of the most common causes of neck injuries in Amarillo is vehicle accidents. With Interstate 27, I-40, and on old Route 66, the city has a high volume of road traffic. Other causes of neck injuries in Amarillo can include workplace accidents, sports activities, rodeos, slip and fall incidents, truck accidents, and motorcycle or bicycle accidents.

Any of these accidents can lead to severe damage to the neck structure, including bones, ligaments, and soft tissues, which may take months to resolve. In the most challenging cases, surgery must be performed to repair the damage, with months of physical therapy. In some cases, the damage cannot be undone. The first step in any serious neck injury is to retain legal counsel to assist in pursuing compensation for all damages.

Statute of Limitation

Texas has a statute of limitations in filing lawsuits. A lawsuit, to be valid, must be filed within two years of the incident. The legal actions taken on your behalf should be initiated as early as possible, as evidence can be lost over time, and memories can fade. If you or someone you love has suffered a serious neck injury, we urge you to contact McCraw Law Group as soon as possible after the incident so our legal team can get to work for you.

Compensation in Neck Injury Cases in Amarillo

The compensation pursued in a neck injury case will include the following:

Economic damages

These are the financial losses associated with the injury, including medical bills, ambulance, rehabilitation, nursing care, medications, transportation, and lost income from work, both now and estimated for the future.

Non-economic damages

These damages are often the largest portion of a personal injury settlement or jury award. Pain and suffering, loss of quality of life, emotional anguish, and other very personal losses are given a dollar value.

Settlement and Lawsuits in Neck Injury Cases

Insurance companies are profit-making operations and not humanitarian organizations. Even with a valid injury claim, they have strategies they employ to try to avoid paying what you deserve. Our neck injury lawyers in Amarillo do it differently. While still seeking a rapid result, we maintain communication, work closely with you, and pursue the maximum compensation under the law. We can investigate your case, gather and preserve all relevant evidence, and assist you in navigating the process to seek the best outcome possible.
