If I didn’t suffer an injury, should I see a doctor after an accident ?

Absolutely. There are enormous forces involved in a car accident that could result in serious injuries, even if you don’t feel the effects today. In addition to seeing a doctor shortly after the accident, you should watch out for symptoms of injury. Once you have sought medical attention, contact the Fullerton car accident lawyers at The Paris Firm to schedule a free consultation.

What injury symptoms should I be aware of?

There are many common car accident injuries that may not show symptoms right away. Look out for brain injury symptoms such as:

  • Fatigue
  • Confusion
  • Dizziness
  • Personality changes, moodiness or depression
  • Inability to sleep/nightmares
  • Memory loss

Also look for spine injury symptoms such as:

  • Back & neck pain
  • Pain elsewhere in the body
  • Short of breath
  • Numbness
  • Tingling
  • Weakness

This may involve limbs, certain regions of the body, or certain organs. The symptoms may also worsen with time and shouldn’t be dismissed.

Does my insurance policy protect me?

Your insurance company has certain legal obligations and your contract with them means you have some common interests. So, in some ways, your insurance company may be on your side and in other ways, they may be your adversary. Unfortunately, an insurance company’s profits are driven by the claims they pay, the claims they can reduce and the ones the don’t pay at all. They may see your incident and resulting injury as a liability, which may lead them to make a decision or suggest a resolution that’s in their best interest. It’s an ongoing conflict of interest that they will never acknowledge.

Do I need a lawyer to assist with my Fullerton car accident claim?

We recommend that anyone seek the advice of a qualified lawyer any time you’ve suffered an injury in a car accident that resulted in any amount of medical bills, damages or lost wages. Since consulting with the attorneys at The Paris Firm about your car accident is free, it’s better to talk to us and allow us to asses your case at no charge, than to not talk to us and potentially suffer because you didn’t have adequate representation.

When should I contact a lawyer about my car accident claim?

You should contact an attorney about your car accident claim when:

  • You are being pressured to give multiple statements about the accident, or you feel your claim is being handled too slowly
  • You have been diagnosed with injuries and presented with a treatment plan
  • You have received a settlement offer from your insurance company (see below)
  • You feel overwhelmed by the issues related to your car accident

My insurance company made me an offer to settle my claim. Should I accept?

When your insurance company makes you an offer, it’s usually based on an expectation of what they might have to pay for your accident. They usually use historical data and claims they’ve paid in the past as a way to calculate your settlement offer. It’s usually at the lower end of what your accident is likely to cost in the long run, even if it seems like a lot based on your current medical bills.

Catastrophic Injuries

Serious motor vehicle accidents can result in life-altering injuries, such as:

  • Paralysis
  • Fractures
  • Internal injuries
  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
  • Spinal cord injury
  • Amputations
  • Burns

If you have suffered a serious injury in a car accident in Fullerton, you may need ongoing medical care, multiple surgeries, and physical and psychological therapy. You may need a health care assistant, motorized wheelchair, or even a handicapped van. You may even need modifications to your home to make it handicapped accessible. We work with certified life-care planners in Southern California to make sure that our client’s accident-related needs are met.

What you do in the minutes after a car accident may have potentially serious ramifications to your health, safety, and the outcome of your car accident claim.

If you or a loved one has suffered a serious injury or wrongful death due to the negligence, recklessness, or carelessness of another driver, you have the right to obtain financial compensation for the damages you have suffered.
