Injuries from Truck Accidents in Georgia

The massive size and weight of trucks means that accidents and injuries are often far more serious than collisions with smaller motor vehicles. As such, the compensation received by plaintiffs is generally higher after an accident involving a large truck. If you or someone you love sustains an injury in a Georgia trucker accident, contact Georgia personal injury attorney Robert S. Windholz immediately.

Some injuries caused by truck accidents

Some of the most common injuries caused by truck accidents include:

Strains, sprains, and broken bones: Several types of injuries can result from an accident with a trucker. Injuries in Georgia truck accidents typically include various sprains and strains, as well as fractures and broken bones can also occur. Soft tissue can also be bruised or damaged. Whiplash is one of the most common types of injuries victims experience. Cuts and lacerations ranging from minor to severe can also occur as a result of a collision. If you are in a truck accident, you may not feel any pain initially—the shock of being involved in such a large accident must first wear off before you begin to feel the full extent of your injuries.

Spinal injuries: Damage to the spine can cause many lasting complications for injured parties. You may experience severe temporary or even long term pain. Additionally, depending on the location of the trauma, paralysis or a loss of feeling in the lower extremities can result.

Head injuries: Various types of head injuries can also occur in an accident with a trucker. These injuries can be minor concussions or more serious brain impairments. Traumatic brain injury is one of the most severe types of injuries sustained in truck accidents. Patients with this condition may experience numerous complications throughout the remainder of their lives, including loss of motor skills, headaches, paralysis, and extreme pain.

Paraplegia and quadriplegia: In the most devastating accidents, victims may sustain injuries so severe that they suffer from a partial or total loss of feeling in their extremities. Injuries of this magnitude require the assistance of a highly qualified and experienced attorney.
