CAR ACCIDENTS
YOU DON’T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE AFTERMATH OF A CAR CRASH ON YOUR OWN
Injuries from car wrecks devastate lives. People face large medical bills, loss of income, pain and suffering, and the disruption of lives and families. Sometimes people have severe fractures, back and spine injuries, or disfiguring scars. Then the worries creep in.
Here are the common concerns we hear from clients:
I need a rental car. How do I get one? Who will pay for it?
How are my medical bills going to get paid?
I can’t work. What am I going to do?
I may need surgery in the future. How does this affect my claim?
The insurance company is being unfair in fixing my car. What do I do?
IT WILL HAPPEN TO YOU
Over three million people are injured every year in car accidents on our nation’s roadways, and fifty thousand dies. In Bowling Green alone, nearly one thousand people are injured every year in car accidents. Add in Scottsville, Glasgow, Morgantown, Franklin, and Russellville, Kentucky, and there are nearly two thousand injured, and one hundred deaths each year.

It is very important that you take care of yourself, and get medical attention if you need it. People frequently have back and spine injuries from car accidents that may not cause problems until days or even weeks after the wreck. Fractures may not be obvious to doctors or hospital staff at first. By going to the doctor you are making sure that you are getting proper medical treatment, and that your doctor has a record of all of the injuries from the accident. If you wait too long to get medical treatment then the insurance company might say your injuries did not come from the wreck, or that you waited too long and caused your own problems.
