Broken bones are among the most common serious injuries people suffer in accidents. Some fractures heal fully, but others lead to lasting disability, ongoing pain, and a lower quality of life. If your fracture happened because someone else was careless, you deserve full payment for everything you have lost. In our experience, the number that matters most in a fracture case is not today's medical bill but tomorrow's, and insurers count on you settling before the full cost of surgeries, hardware, and long-term complications is ever on the table.
Types of Fractures We Handle
Our attorneys represent people with all kinds of fractures, including simple and compound breaks, comminuted fractures where the bone shatters into several pieces, stress fractures from repeated strain or impact, hip fractures that are especially serious for older victims, spinal compression fractures, skull fractures, and facial bone fractures.
Common Causes of Fracture Injuries
Broken bones most often come from car and motorcycle accidents, slip and fall accidents, workplace accidents, sports injuries caused by someone's negligence, defective products, pedestrian accidents, and nursing home falls. We look into what caused your injury and go after everyone responsible.
Long-Term Consequences
Serious fractures can cause lasting problems, including chronic pain and limited movement, arthritis at the break site, the need for surgical hardware such as plates, rods, and screws, more than one surgery and long rehab, and permanent disability. We work with medical experts to spell out your long-term outlook so your settlement or verdict covers your future losses too.
