Any car accident can be a devastating experience but an accident with a tractor-trailer can be permanently life-altering. Due to the sheer size of an 18 wheeler, an average auto accident can turn deadly. A truck accident victim may suffer from a serious injury, such as a brain or head injury, spinal injury or other injury resulting in paralysis or disfigurement.
An accident with a tractor trailer or other large commercial truck can be a devastating experience that can change your life. What may appear as a minor back injury may actually end up costing the accident victim thousands of dollars in lost wages and in physical therapy or other medical expenses.
If you are suffering from a back injury caused by an accident with a tractor-trailer, contact our New York Truck Accident Lawyer at Stephen Bilkis & Associates, PLLC to discuss how to proceed with your case.
In many case a truck accident victim may suffer a back injury that does not immediately appear severe. The injury may appear as a bulging disc or even as a herniated disc but it may actually be a more serious type of injury such as a compression fracture. With thousands of Americans suffering from different forms of back injury each year in the United States, our New York Injury Lawyer team at Stephen Bilkis & Associates, PLLC has experience with individuals who are suffering a back injury. We have successfully represented clients who are suffering due to a serious injury from a construction accident, SUV accident, ATV accident, boat accident, slip and fall accident, motorcycle accident, and from an act of medical malpractice.
Although a common injury, a severe back injury can cause permanent physical problems. The truck accident injury victim may suffer from symptoms like loss of bodily function, hemiplegia, permanent or temporarily paralysis and chronic pain. Not only is emergency medical treatment necessary following an accident with a semi trailer or tractor-trailer, but the victim may be facing a lifetime of medication and an extended period of disability and physical therapy.
