Understanding How Serious Accidents and Severe Injuries Change Lives
At The Law Offices of Keith Bregoff, our personal injury attorney in Vero Beach knows when our clients are hurt in a serious car, motorcycle, pedestrian, or truck accident, their injuries can be life-changing.
That is why we are here.
Our Indian River County personal injury lawyer represents Florida clients who have suffered debilitating soft tissue injuries, broken bones, internal injuries, spine and traumatic brain injuries that keep them out of work while enduring painful and lengthy medical care because of someone else’s negligence.
Here are some of the specific ways a serious injury can disrupt an accident injury victim’s life, even when they do not see the long-term ramifications coming during their recovery.
Accidents with Severe Injuries Place Your Current and Future Finances in Jeopardy
Serious injuries can result in significant unexpected expenses.
Even when an injury victim has good health insurance coverage that can lessen the impact of surprise medical expenses, their injuries can keep them out of work for weeks, months, or even years, potentially resulting in a substantial loss of income.
Without a paycheck, their households can become financially strapped very quickly.
Accidents with Severe Injuries Can Negatively Impact Your Job or Career
Florida employees may be protected by local and federal employment laws that allow them to take considerable time away from work to seek treatment for injuries or illnesses without retaliation, but that does not change how their job or career is impacted by the time they miss.
No matter which industry you work in, from retail services or construction work to office or restaurant employment, taking time off jeopardizes an employee’s connection to their role and the integrity they deserve in the workplace.
While colleagues, coworkers, and employers may understand that you are injured, due to no fault of your own, missing weeks or months of work can affect your level of involvement and the opportunities that come with it.
Accidents with Severe Injuries Can Disrupt Your Day-to-Day Activities & Overall Quality of Life
Many people who are seriously injured develop temporary or permanent physical limitations that keep them from doing the things they enjoyed before their injury.
The more severe the injury, the more that is true.
If you cannot enjoy time with your family, work as you did before the accident, play sports, or even physically pick up your children, your life has been significantly altered by the accident, and you deserve damages that reflect those changes.
