What should I do if I’m in pain after an accident?

If you are in pain and suffering after an accident of any kind, it’s critical that you take certain steps right way. Pain, especially severe pain or chronic pain, can be a warning sign of a serious injury. Such steps should include:

• See a doctor – If necessary, go to the nearest hospital emergency room. Some types of pain (especially pain in the stomach or abdomen) can be a warning sign of internal bleeding, which can be life threatening in many cases if not treated right away by a medical professional.
• Take your doctor’s advice – That way, you can hopefully fully recover from your injury.
• Document your injury – Such documentation can cover a wide range, including keeping copies of doctor’s instructions and prescription slips, taking pictures of your injury, and keeping a daily written record of any pain or other symptoms you are experiencing.
• Call a lawyer – The sooner you talk to an attorney after your injury, the better. That way, you can fully understand your rights and legal options.

Why is it important to see a doctor after my personal injury accident?

There are many reasons why it’s important that you have a medical doctor examine you if you believe you sustained a serious injury in accident. The most important reason is to get the medical care you need to aid in your recovery.

Another important reason why you should have a doctor examine you after your accident is to document your injury. Without a medical examination and a doctor’s diagnosis, you might have a hard time getting the money you deserve for your injury-related expenses. That’s because many insurance companies deny injury claims that don’t have proof of an injury.

How much money can I receive for my injury?

Every injury accident is different. But the bottom line is you should be financially compensated for all your injury-related expenses if someone else caused your accident. What many injury victims often don’t realize is just how many expenses that covers, including:

• The total cost of all medical care, including future anticipated medical treatments (follow-up doctor’s appointments, surgery, physical therapy, etc.)
• In-home medical care and support needed to recover from your injury
• Replacement income if you cannot work as a result of your injury and need time off to stay home to rest and recover
• Lost future income if you have a permanent disability as a result of your injury
• Pain and suffering (in certain circumstances).

Add all these expenses up and your injury claim could be worth thousands of dollars or perhaps even a lot more. So what’s the best way to find out how much your injury could be worth? Talk to an experienced Maine personal injury lawyer right away.
