Joint Injury Damages Claims
Atlanta accident compensation attorney Scott Delius represents clients throughout the state of Georgia who need help with both personal injury litigation and workers' comp claims. If your highway or workplace accident involved a serious injury to a major joint, such as the knee, shoulder or ankle, contact the Delius Law Firm for a free consultation about your rights.
Many motor vehicle accidents result in joint trauma of different types, depending on the dynamics of the crash, the speed at impact, or even the amount of time that the driver had to anticipate the collision. Severe wrist damage can result from bracing against the crash by tightening the grip on the steering wheel. Aggressive braking can cause the right ankle to absorb more than its share of the impact. Passengers in narrow rear seats can suffer serious knee injuries as the impact twists their lower bodies. Knee injuries are also a common consequence of bicycle or motorcycle crashes when the rider is spun around one leg or the other.
Why hire Scott?
Personal injury lawyer Scott Delius knows how to present medical evidence of joint trauma in such a way that you stand an excellent chance of recovering the full value of your accident either through settlement or at trial. He also makes sure that your injury is properly diagnosed and treated, even if the insurance companies involved resist paying for testing or therapy.
In the workplace, joint injuries can result either from a sudden trauma, such as a slip and fall, or from repetitive stress caused by reaching and lifting or operating machinery at a high rate of speed. Whether traumatic or chronic in origin, your joint injury might require a period of rest and rehabilitation or even surgery to repair damaged ligaments or relieve pressure on nerves. A workers' compensation claim might be necessary to give you the time and treatment you need to recover from a serious knee, shoulder or ankle injury.
At the Delius Law Firm, we emphasize close contact with our clients so that we understand your situation fully and that you understand what we can and cannot accomplish for you. We give you the information you need to make sound decisions about accepting settlement offers or pursuing your claims at trial. We will always give you the most accurate advice available, and work hard to maximize the value of your claims whether we are presenting a personal injury lawsuit in court or a claim for benefits before the State Board of Workers' Compensation.
