How Accident Victims Suffer a Blunt Force Trauma
Victims of serious accidents can suffer blunt force trauma injuries. In car accidents, for example, the accident victim may strike their head or another body part on the front console, headrest, steering wheel, or window. The blow could bring about serious complications and injuries, such as a traumatic head injury.
An accident victim could also suffer a blunt force trauma injury in a motorcycle or bicycle accident. This is especially true if the accident victim strikes his or her head, back, or limb directly on the ground. These accidents can lead to traumatic head injuries, fractures, and broken bones.
Finally, an accident victim could suffer blunt force trauma in an assault or attack that takes place on someone else’s premises, such as when the property owner provides insufficient or inadequate security.
Filing a Claim against the At-Fault Party
After an accident victim receives a traumatic blunt force injury, he or she should seek immediate medical treatment at a doctor’s office or emergency room. The accident victim may then be prescribed follow-up treatment while they are there.
Once the accident victim has completed all of his or her treatment, an experienced Nashville blunt force trauma injury lawyer could file a claim with the at-fault person’s insurance company. If the insurance company accepts fault, the adjuster for that insurance company might make an offer to settle the case. Several rounds of negotiating will then occur, and the case may be settled. If the insurance company does not offer favorable monetary compensation to resolve the matter, which it should in cases involving serious injuries, your lawyer may litigate the case by filing a lawsuit in the Tennessee state court system.
