Deerfield Beach Head on Collision

Being in any head-on collision in Deerfield Beach or Florida is devastating, but it can be even more deadly when larger vehicles or high speeds are involved. In these types of cases, the smaller vehicle is often at a distinct disadvantage. If you are driving in a car, for example, and a truck leaves their lane because a truck driver has fallen asleep at the wheel, your car is likely to be crushed. You may face life-threatening or permanent injury as a result of driver fatigue, driver distraction, or other negligence.

If this has happened to you, you don't have to go through the process alone. You can always contact Flaxman Law Group at 866-352-9626 in order to arrange a free accident consultation with one of our personal injury attorneys. Our full-service law firm can help you understand what options you have in your situation.

In just a fraction of a second, a serious head-on collision can change your life. These types of accidents often result in serious injuries, including:

• Fractures
• Head injuries and brain injuries
• Paralysis
• Soft tissue injuries and whiplash
• Back or spinal cord injuries
• Amputation

In addition to the pain and suffering you might expect from these types of serious injuries, there is often a financial impact. Recovering from these injuries can take months and in some cases the injuries may be permanent, affecting your income. The costs of treating these injuries can be prohibitive. A serious spinal cord injury or Deerfield Beach, for example, can cost more than $100 000 in surgical costs, hospital stays, and medical treatment in the first year alone. In addition, there may be many incidental costs related to a serious injury. You may need to make your home more accessible if your injury is serious, for example, or you may need to pay for taxis and other forms of transportation.

Many car accident survivors find that insurance only pays a portion of these costs, which is why many seek a legal claim and work with a personal injury attorney to protect themselves and their families.

Speak with a personal injury attorney as soon as possible. Rather than simply accepting an insurance offer, make sure that you get some legal advice about your case. You may not realize that your case is worth a lot more than you believed. A personal injury attorney can review the details of your case and can help you understand what options you have. He or she may even help you negotiate with your insurance carrier so that you get a fairer insurance amount.

When you deal with a full-service firm such as Flaxman Law Group, you may be able to enjoy a free initial consultation as well as other perks. The attorneys of Flaxman Law Group, for example, may be willing to come to your hospital room, workplace, or home if you're too injured to travel, and need immediate advice. The phone lines at 866-352-9626 are also staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so that it is easy to reach someone if you need immediate assistance.
