Coral Springs Chain Reaction Accidents
Serious car collisions occur in Coral Springs every day. Most of these involve two vehicles, as in the event of head-on car accidents, broadside collisions, and other types of crashes. However, a common type of accident involves the chain reaction collision. In this type of accident, multiple vehicles become involved as one initial crash sets off a series of collisions and accidents.
These types of accidents can be devastating, especially if they occur on highways or other high-speed areas. If you have been injured in this type of accident, contact Flaxman Law Group at 866-352-9626 to arrange a free accident consultation to discuss your case.
What to do if You Have Been in a Multiple Vehicle Accident in Coral SpringsIf you have been in a chain reaction accident, there are several things you will want to do:
- Get immediate emergency medical assistance for anyone who needs it
- Follow the emergency personnel's advice regarding any injured parties
- Contact law enforcement
- Get an immediate medical checkup even if you don't yet have symptoms
- Get documentation of the evidence, including contact information of others involved, contact information of any witnesses, and any photos of the site you can
- File an insurance claim
- Contact a personal injury attorney to review your options
There is a great deal to do after a serious car collision, but you should not overlook contacting a personal injury attorney in Coral Springs or your community. Unfortunately, chain reaction accidents often lead to a chain reaction of blame and finger-pointing. In some cases, innocent drivers are blamed for an accident that was not their fault. In other cases, insurance companies undervalue claims, making it harder for accident victims to get fair compensation for their injuries. A personal injury attorney is someone in your corner. They look out for your best interests and handle all the many legal and financial aspects of the case so that you can focus on your family and on healing from your injuries.
Injuries After a Serious Car AccidentBeing in a multiple vehicle accident tends to result in serious injuries, including:
- Fractures
- Head injuries and brain injuries
- Back injuries and spinal cord injuries
- Disfigurement
- Burns
- Concussions
- Whiplash and soft tissue injuries
- Crushing injuries
Unfortunately, injuries in a multiple vehicle accident are very likely because there are multiple points of impact and because these types of accidents tend to be quite severe. Soft tissue injuries and head injuries are especially common in chain reaction accidents, as passengers get multiple jolts with every impact.
