How We Prove Whiplash After an Accident
Whiplash is a specific neck injury caused by the rapid and forceful back-and-forth movement of the head. It is common in rear-end accidents, falls, and sports injuries, when the head forcefully snaps like a whip, causing damage to the muscles, ligaments, and tendons in the neck and shoulders. To prove this happened to you, we will:
- Document all of the injuries and symptoms you have. We encourage you to keep a journal that includes symptoms of discomfort, limited movement, activities you could not participate in, and other impacts on your life. That includes dizziness, tingling, numbness, neck pain, and headaches.
- Medical documentation is critical. Always seek medical care after an accident even if you feel okay. This helps establish the injury with clear documentation, making it hard for the insurance company to refute those claims. Your X-rays, CT scans, and MRI results provide valuable insight in this area.
- Complete your rehabilitation and follow treatment plans. Your physical therapist and others involved in your healing process will document limitations and improvements. That is valuable evidence for your claim.
The sooner you start working with our Everett whiplash lawyer, the sooner we can build your case and pursue your claim. Our compassionate legal team wants to support you throughout this healing process so you can focus on your recovery and return to your daily activities.
Your Symptoms May Take Time to Become Obvious
One of the most complex aspects of whiplash injuries is that they take time to develop. Sometimes symptoms take several days to become obvious, and that opens the door for questions from the insurance company about their responsibility to pay for your losses. We encourage you to get medical care immediately after any accident to document the start of this condition.
