Seek Medical Attention for a Neck-Related Injury
Johns Hopkins Medicine reports that one of the most common causes of neck pain from a car accident is whiplash. Your neck is a network of muscles, tendons, disks, and nerves. The impact of a crash can result in damage to one or more of these areas, resulting in stiffness, numbness, and pain.
Yet, whiplash is not the only injury that can arise from a car accident.
According to Mayo Clinic, you may also be suffering from:
- Nerve damage
- Herniated disks
- Bone spurs
- Broken or fractured bones
- Muscle strains and sprains
You may be suffering from a condition not included on this list. You should seek medical attention if you have not done so already. Your health care team can use x-rays, computed tomography (CT) scans, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans to learn more about your condition. You should also keep all documents as they relate to your medical care, including the names of your prescribed medications and necessary procedures.
Your Gahanna neck pain lawyer, in turn, can use these documents to establish the nature and severity of your injury. The team at Bressman Law can investigate the circumstances of your injury and pursue the liable party for the cost of your damages. Reach out to a member of our law firm today.

Types of Possible Compensation for Your Neck Injury
No two personal injury cases are alike. The types of damages you can recover, along with their cost, will rest upon the details of your situation.
Depending on the circumstances of your accident, you may be entitled to the following types of compensation:
Medical Bills
The cost of your medical visits, medications, and hospital stays are all compensable. Your lawyer can review the details of your health insurance policy to see what is covered and what is not.
Rehabilitative Care
If your neck pain left you with a limited range of motion or other impediments to your mobility, you may be able to regain function through physical therapy. Your lawyer can help you evaluate the cost of this expense and factor that value into the cost of your Gahanna car accident case.
Lost Income
Your neck injury may have caused you to take time off work. If so, your lawyer can use your employment records to determine the cost of this expense.
Property Damage
Your vehicle may have been totaled or damaged as a result of the collision. Your Gahanna neck pain lawyer can evaluate the details of the involved insurance policies to see what coverage is available.
Pain and Suffering
Your neck pain may have put a halt to your personal, professional, and social ambitions. Your lawyer can determine how your injury has impacted your quality of life and work to get you compensation.
Disability
Your neck injury may have completely altered how you live your life. You may be unable to return to activities you once enjoyed or live without in-home support. Your lawyer can work to hold the negligent party accountable for the cost of living with a lifelong disability.
At Bressman Law, we support our clients by standing by their side throughout the civil process. We believe that no one should suffer out-of-pocket expenses due to the negligent actions of another driver. You can call us today at (614) 538-1116 for a free case review.

Your Lawyer Can Help with Insurance Negotiations and a Possible Trial
The American Bar Association notes that most personal injury cases settle without going to trial. Our goal is to firmly negotiate with the involved insurance companies to secure the best possible outcome for your civil case.
Some insurance companies do not like to pay accident victims what they deserve. While we negotiate with the insurance company, we can protect you against any unscrupulous insurance practices. Our team understands how some insurance companies work to deny or undervalue claims.
If negotiations fail to grant you compensation, then we are more than willing to file a lawsuit and defend your rights in court. However, per Ohio Revised Code § 2305.10, you typically have two years from the date of the collision to file a lawsuit. For that reason, we encourage you to reach out to the Bressman Law team today.
