What Injuries Are Common in Car Accidents in Union, NJ?

After a car accident in Union, common injuries include whiplash and other neck injuries, back injuries, head injuries, broken bones, internal injuries, and cuts and bruises. These injuries can range from minor to serious, and some take months of treatment and therapy to heal.

Because some symptoms take time to appear, it is wise to see a doctor right away, even if you feel fine and the crash seemed minor. Adrenaline can mask pain for hours or days, so watch for headaches, neck or back stiffness, numbness, dizziness, or trouble concentrating in the days after the crash.

No matter who caused the crash, your own personal injury protection (PIP) pays your medical bills first, up to your policy limit, whether you were a driver or a passenger. You can get emergency care, doctor visits, prescriptions, and therapy without waiting for the insurers to settle the question of fault, which can take weeks or months when several insurers are involved.

Beyond your medical bills, you may be able to recover compensation for lost wages, future treatment, reduced earning ability, pain and suffering, and vehicle damage. If you chose the limitation on lawsuit option, you will generally need a serious injury, such as a permanent injury or a displaced fracture, before you can seek pain and suffering from the other driver.

Under New Jersey law, you generally have two years from the date of the crash to file a personal injury lawsuit against an at-fault driver. Missing this deadline could cost you the right to compensation, even if your injuries later prove more serious or require long-term care.

When injuries prevent you from working, a car accident lawyer can look at your lost income and determine what insurance coverage may be available. An attorney can also handle discussions with the insurance company on your behalf.
