Do You Have Neck and Back Pain After a Car Accident?

August 31, 2021 by David R. Heil, PA

Car accidents are the leading cause of neck and back injuries in the United States. These accidents sometimes haunt a person for years because of ongoing pain, expensive medical bills, and time away from work. While victims of negligent drivers can receive compensation for costs, it’s not always enough for long-term care. An experienced auto accident attorney can work with you to ensure maximum results. 

At David R. Heil, PA, our team has earned a reputation for helping countless men and women get the outcomes they deserve. If you have serious neck and back injuries due to an accident, contact us now to schedule a free consultation. Read below to learn more about your legal rights. 

How do car accidents cause neck and back pain?

To understand the correlation between car accidents and chronic neck and back pain, we need to examine what happens to the spine during an auto accident. During a frontal collision, the head moves forward while the upper body is pushed backward into the seatbelt. This sudden movement can damage the spinal discs (which are like cushions between each vertebra) and press on the nerves. 

Because of this, many people who have been in a car accident will experience chronic pain that persists for months or even years. Neck and back pain may be accompanied by other symptoms like headaches, sleep apnea, depression, and mood swings. Fortunately, there are many treatment options for these kinds of injuries in Orlando. They are designed to help you recover from your pain while preventing any long-term side effects.

Why should I get an auto accident attorney? 

Many people who sustain auto accident-related injuries think they can handle the legal and medical aspects of their case on their own. However, there’s a lot to know about navigating the process, which could lead to higher costs in the long run. If you have neck or back pain, you may be eligible for compensation for your injuries under Florida law. Discussing your situation with attorney David Heil could help you determine what course of action would work best for your needs. 

Let’s start with what Mr. Heil may do if he represents you in your case. First, he would take on the burden of trying to get medical bills paid as well as wage loss compensation if you missed work. This isn’t always easy because these types of cases require a lot of paperwork. Secondly, he will act as a liaison between the insurance company and yourself while also negotiating settlements. Thirdly, he will make sure that all necessary forms are filed correctly on time before deadlines expire. 

What are my next steps? 

Carefully documenting your neck and back pain can help you get the best settlement for your injuries. The first step is gathering information from yourself and others who were involved in the crash. This includes names, contact information, vehicle make/model/year/color (license plate if available), location of the collision, number of passengers in each car, and any relevant witness statements. Make sure that you report the incident as soon as possible and take care of yourself by following up with a doctor for treatment.
