Most Common Injuries from Rear-End Accidents

Rear-end accidents can cause injuries from the sudden, shocking jolt, including the following:

  • Whiplash: Whiplash is a specific type of neck strain caused by the rapid back-and-forth motion of the head. It results in a dull or acute pain in the neck that affects quality of life for months or longer.
  • Spinal Cord Injuries: If your back is injured in a rear-end collision, the spinal cord and the bones surrounding the structure can be strained or fractured. Surgery to correct back and spinal cord injuries can result in paralysis, multiple surgeries, pain, and mobility issues.
  • Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI), Concussions: If the impact of being crashed into from behind causes you to hit your head, it can injure the brain, leading to severe symptoms, including cognitive changes, memory problems, mobility problems, or in the worst cases, long-term coma or a vegetative state.
  • Soft Tissue Injuries: Muscles, ligaments, and tendons can be damaged and require many months to heal or surgical interventions.
  • Broken bones: A rear-end collision can be so violent that bones of the leg, foot, ankle, hand, arm, or wrist are broken or shattered and require amputation.

How Can Compensation Cover My Costs?

Christopher C. Vader PC can file a claim on your behalf to cover these expenses and more, depending on your case. You may be eligible to receive:

Economic damages

Damages that can be financially defined, such as doctor’s visits, chiropractic adjustments, property damage, and repairs.

Non-economic damages

Damages that do not have a price tag yet take a toll on a person’s life. For example, pain and suffering or new mental trauma related to driving or going out.
