Best & Anderson, P.A. Personal Injury Blog

The mass and speed of a car get turned against the human body in the event of a car accident. Even when the car takes the brunt of the force through its crumple zones, the possibility for serious injury is very high.

Common types of injuries in car accidents include:

• Traumatic brain injury, both closed and open head injuries
• Spinal cord injury (car accident is the number one cause of spinal cord injuries)
• Limb amputation when portions of the car intrude on the passenger cabin. Loss of legs was recently determined by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety to be a serious potential risk related to microcars when struck by a larger vehicle.
• Burns when gasoline in the car ignites.
• Internal organ trauma can also lead to multiple organ failure.

Many of these injuries require lifelong care and/or expensive immediate treatment. If you or a loved one have suffered any of these serious injuries in a car accident, the Orlando, Florida car accident lawyers at Best & Anderson, P.A. can help you pay for expenses related to your injury.
