An automobile accident is a terrifying experience.  Tires screech, metal smashes, glass shatters, people scream.  Many times there is blood and broken bones.

    Many times, however, injuries are not obvious in a car accident.  Clients of our Connecticut personal injury firm will tell us that immediately after the terror and shock of an accident, they were relieved to see that they had no cuts or fractures.  They tell the police officer that they are okay.

    Later on  —  that evening, the next morning  — they can hardly move.  They have neck pain and stiffness.  They have a headache.  They have pain in the shoulder or between the shoulder blades.  Their arms or hands feel numb and tingly.  Their low back hurts.  They feel a little dizzy.

    We have found as car accident lawyers that this is a very common experience.  Doctors, other medical professionals, insurance companies, lawyers and judges are aware that this is what often happens after a car accident.  This is what the National Institute of Health says about these kinds of whiplash injuries:

    Sometimes, these types of delayed injuries include a traumatic brain injury.  The impact from the accident makes the brain stretch or collide against the inside of the skull, causing the brain to bruise, bleed and swell.

    Our experience as Connecticut auto accident attorneys in dealing with delayed injuries allows us to present your case forcefully to the insurance company and, if necessary, to a jury.
