Maryland Car Accident Injury Attorneys

Waldorf Auto Accident Injuries

An individual's life as well as the lives of the members of their family can be forever changed by an auto accident. No one ever expects that they will be injured in a car crash, which leaves many car accident injury victims unsure as to how to handle expenses associated with their injuries and other costs related to the collision. Thinking of these challenges on top of coping with physical injury, pain and suffering, rehabilitation, and emotional trauma can be extremely overwhelming. However, with a Bowie car accident injury attorney from Alpert Schreyer, LLC on your side, you can focus on healing while our lawyers protect your rights and help you obtain the compensation that you deserve from negligent parties.

The severity of injuries sustained in a Maryland auto accident as well as the medical treatment required depend on various circumstances of the crash, such as, speed; the number of vehicles involved; location of impact to the vehicle; seat belt use; airbag functionality; vehicle crashworthiness; and many other factors. After conducting a study of the cost of medical care and productivity losses connected to injuries from auto accidents in 2005, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) discovered that these expenses exceeded $99 billion, with the cost of direct medical care accounting for $17 billion.

It may be shocking to some motorists to learn that every 10 seconds an individual in the United States is treated under emergency care for auto accident-related injuries. In addition, almost 40,000 individuals die from crash-related injuries each year. The CDC suggests many ways for motorists to help prevent auto accidents and subsequent injuries, some of which include increasing safety belt use; avoiding driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs; improving teen driver safety; and improving child passenger safety.

Even Maryland auto accident injuries that are considered to be minor can present several physical, financial, and emotional challenges for an auto accident victim. Many Maryland auto accident injury victims cope with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which can be debilitating across the board, leaving a person incapable of functioning normally out of anxiety, depression, and/or fear. Whiplash, lacerations, dislocated shoulders or arms, bruises, scrapes, bone fractures, bone breaks, torn ligaments, and other injuries are not only painful, but they can lead to steep medical bills and may require an individual to take time off work to undergo surgery or properly heal before they are capable of performing job duties again.

More severe injuries such as internal organ damage, brain injury, spinal cord injury, paralysis, tissue damage, loss of limbs, nerve damage, disfigurement, and many others, may require years, if not a life-time of medical treatment, care, and rehabilitation. These serious injuries often limit a person's ability to work; however, he or she may be able to obtain compensation for lost wages from those responsible for the Maryland auto accident.
