Soft Tissue Injuries and 18 Wheeler Accidents



Soft tissue injuries are a common type of injury that can occur in an 18 wheeler accident. Soft tissue injuries involve damage to the muscles, ligaments, and tendons in the body, and can range in severity from minor bruises and strains to more serious sprains and tears.

If you have been involved in an 18 wheeler accident and have suffered a soft tissue injury, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Even if your injury seems minor, it is important to get checked out by a medical professional to ensure that there are no underlying injuries that could worsen over time.

Once you have received medical attention for your soft tissue injury, it is important to document your injury and the treatment that you received. This documentation can be helpful when you are seeking compensation for your injuries. Be sure to keep copies of all medical bills, doctor's notes, and other documentation related to your injury.

If your soft tissue injury was caused by the negligence of the commercial truck driver or trucking company, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries. This compensation can include payment for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

To seek compensation for your injuries, it is important to consult with a personal injury lawyer who has experience handling 18 wheeler accident cases. Your lawyer can help you navigate the legal process and work to ensure that you receive the compensation that you deserve.

In addition to working with a lawyer, there are several steps that you can take to protect your rights and ensure that you receive fair compensation for your soft tissue injury. These steps include:

  • Keep all documentation related to your injury, including medical bills, doctor's notes, and other records.
  • Follow your doctor's orders and attend all follow-up appointments.
  • Do not sign any documents or agree to any settlements without consulting with a lawyer.
  • Be cautious when speaking with insurance adjusters, as they may try to get you to say something that could hurt your case.
  • Work with a personal injury lawyer who has experience handling 18 wheeler accident cases.

By taking these steps, you can protect your rights and work to ensure that you receive fair compensation for your soft tissue injury.
