Determining if Your Injury is Serious Enough for a Claim
You’ve received cuts and scratches from your car accident but they did not require medical attention – sure, this might not be enough to bring a claim, but other injuries that appear minor might actually require medical attention that could set you back and make it difficult to meet the demands of the bills that are stacked against you. Here are some questions you should ask yourself if you are wondering if you have a claim:
- Did you require medical attention or hospitalization for your injuries after your accident?
- Are the medical costs higher than what you will be able to afford on your own?
- Are you going to miss time at work due to your injury?
- Do you have continuous pain due to your injury?
These are questions that could help you determine whether or not you have a case and your next steps in the process.
Every year, many Americans will receive minor injuries that could cause underlying issues or could end up being costlier than what they initially imagined. These accidents could be anything, from the most minor case of whiplash to a concussion or muscle strains. If it caused you financial hardship or you are physically and emotionally pained due to the accident, then it is a good idea to speak with an experienced West Virginia accident attorney about your case.
