What most people don’t understand is the fact that the broken glass is responsible for the majority of injuries in a car accident. After an impact at a high speed, broken glass becomes a projectile that can be deadly for everyone involved in a car accident, as well as anyone around at that time. Whether you are a driver or an innocent pedestrian passing by, you could lose your life or end up with serious injuries due to the broken glass flying around. Here is everything you need to know about broken glass injuries and how to file a personal injury claim.
Types of Injuries There are a few factors that determine the severity of injuries following an accident. One of them is speed; the faster the two vehicles go right before the accident, the higher the chances are of the glass shattering and becoming a wave of deadly projectiles. When this happens, the most common injuries that occur involve:
●
Cuts (usually surface cuts)
●
Lacerations (deep under the skin, damaging underlying tissues, and muscles)
●
Severed limbs (large pieces of glass getting stuck in a person’s body, which could result in hemorrhage and death)
Even after recovery, the victims suffer from disfiguring scars and muscle weakness in general. If you were involved in a car accident and ended up with injuries caused by broken glass, your only option is to contact a skilled and experienced San Francisco personal injury lawyer and seek compensation for your:
●
Medical Costs
●
Lost Wages
●
Pain and suffering
You do not have to cover all your medical bills or car repairs. As long as you are not responsible for causing the accident, you have the right to file a claim and seek compensation. Allegiance Law attorneys will help you file a claim. Feel free to give a call right after the accident, assuming that you are able to. If not, have someone else give a call on your behalf.
Proving Negligence The most important thing is proving that you are not the one responsible for causing the accident. This is where Allegiance Law attorneys come into play, and where the investigation will determine the one responsible. The investigation takes time, so do not expect the whole process to be finished within a week or two. The whole process usually lasts several months and it may take a year before you receive your compensation, assuming that you are a victim.
The personal injury lawyers in San Francisco will do everything in their power to help find the evidence that will prove that the defendant was driving recklessly at the time of the accident and that his/her actions caused the accident to happen in the first place. Once that is done, the attorney will negotiate your settlement with the insurance company and help you obtain the highest settlement possible.
