Broken & Fractured Bone Injuries
When individuals are involved in accidents of any kind, there is a chance they can break or fracture a bone. Bone breaks and fractures can substantially interfere with daily living and performance of job duties. Sometimes, a break or fracture can be so severe that victims are forced to miss work for extended periods of time.
When a break or fracture occurs, individuals often have to undergo extensive diagnostic imaging testing, possible surgery, and therapy and rehabilitation. Depending on the extent and location of the break or fracture, it can take weeks to months to fully heal. But even after the break or fracture has healed, it is not uncommon for individuals to experience residual issues such as achiness, fatigue, and weakened bones, which increases the possibility of a re-break or re-fracture.
When you suffer a bone break or fracture, it is incredibly important to seek medical attention to determine how best to treat the break or fracture. Treatment, however, is often expensive and can lead to financial stress and difficulties. At Karp Steiger, our team of experienced attorneys can help guide you on how best to address any financial stress arising from the incident that caused you to suffer a broken or fractured bone.
