An experienced car accident lawyer will have a major impact on your car accident concussion settlement. According to the Texas Department of Transportation, 205,498 persons were injured in motor vehicle accidents within the state in 2020.
A driver or passenger can suffer a wide variety of different injuries in a car accident. A concussion is an injury that frequently occurs in car accidents.
But concussion symptoms sometimes take longer to present themselves than other injuries like broken bones. Despite this delay, a concussion can lead to other side effects that can negatively affect your life in multiple ways.
If you suffered a concussion in a car accident, a settlement could help compensate you for the harm you suffered.
Even if you did not have a concussion, your car accident settlement amount could vary based on the other injuries you suffered.
Contact a car accident attorney at Armstrong Lee & Baker LLP today to discuss your claim.
The answer of course is, it depends. If someone else caused your accident by acting negligently or wrongfully, you could hold them accountable by filing a personal injury lawsuit against them.
In some cases, their insurance company may offer a settlement to avoid the uncertainty of taking the case to trial.
When considering a settlement, you want to ensure that the settlement amount covers all of the expenses you have paid as a result of the injury.
Unfortunately, there is no set average for a concussion car accident settlement because amounts vary widely based on the unique facts of each case.
Car accident victims can claim:
Even though a concussion might seem like a minor injury, hospital bills add up quickly. In fact, CBS News reported that the average emergency room bill in Texas costs approximately $2,318 per visit.
Additionally, some serious concussions can cause long-term issues like consistent headaches and memory loss.
If this happened to you, you could recover more in your concussion car accident settlement due to the long-term impact of the injury.
