Car Accidents
Car accidents are a leading cause of injury and death in the United States. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that there were over 6 million car accidents in the US in 2018 alone, resulting in over 37,000 deaths and millions of injuries. If you or a loved one have been involved in a car accident, it's essential to understand your rights and options for seeking compensation.
Yassi Law PC understands the physical, emotional, and financial toll car accidents can take on individuals and families. Whether you were hit by a negligent driver or were injured in a crash caused by a defective car or road design, we can help. We have the experience and resources to help you navigate the legal process and get the compensation you deserve.
Some common injuries from car accidents include:
• Whiplash: This neck injury occurs when the head is suddenly and forcefully thrown forward and backward. It can cause pain, stiffness, and difficulty moving the neck.
• Traumatic brain injuries: can occur when the head is hit, or the brain is jolted inside the skull. They can range from mild concussions to severe brain damage and have lifelong effects.
• Fractures: Broken bones can occur in car accidents, especially in high-impact collisions.
• Lacerations: Cuts and scrapes can occur from broken glass or metal during a car accident.
• Spinal cord injuries: These can range from minor sprains to complete paralysis and can significantly impact a person's ability to move and function.
If you or a loved one have been injured in a car accident, taking legal action as soon as possible is essential. The statute of limitations for personal injury claims varies by state. In New York, the Statute of Limitations is generally three years, and in New Jersey, the statute of limitations is generally two years.
