FAQ
Common Questions About Back Injury Claims
Should I get a lawyer for a back injury from a car accident?
Yes, hiring a back injury lawyer significantly increases your compensation. Insurance companies often minimize back injuries, especially soft tissue damage. An experienced attorney documents your injuries properly, proves causation, negotiates with insurers, and takes your case to trial if needed.
How much is a herniated disc settlement worth?
Herniated disc settlements typically range from $75,000 to over $500,000 depending on severity, treatment required, and impact on your life. Cases requiring surgery generally settle higher. Factors include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and future care needs.
How do I prove my back injury was caused by the accident?
Proving causation requires immediate medical attention, diagnostic imaging (MRI, CT scan), expert medical testimony, and thorough documentation. Our attorneys work with medical experts to establish a clear link between your accident and injuries, especially important if you have pre-existing conditions.
What if I had a pre-existing back condition before the accident?
You can still recover full compensation under the "aggravation of pre-existing condition" doctrine. Defendants take victims as they find them. If the accident worsened your condition, you're entitled to damages for the aggravation. We prove how the accident made your condition worse than baseline.
Do I need an MRI after a car accident for a back injury claim?
An MRI is highly recommended for back injury claims. It shows soft tissue damage like herniated discs, bulging discs, and nerve compression that X-rays miss. MRI evidence significantly strengthens your claim and often leads to higher settlements.
How long does a back injury claim take to settle?
Most back injury claims settle within 6-18 months, but complex cases involving surgery or permanent disability may take longer. It's important to wait until you reach Maximum Medical Improvement (MMI) to fully understand your damages before settling.
