i was in a car accident and now I need rotator cuff (shoulder) surgery as a result; is that a case?

Here is another issue that is seen at the law firm by the personal injury and accident lawyer.

Of course, in an accident case there are three issues:  1) liability; 2) damages and 3) causation.  If someone was in an accident where someone else is at fault and there are damages that are caused by the accident, then generally this would be a case.   Shoulder injury is very common particularly now that people are required to wear shoulder harness seat belts.  Clearly, the most common injury that is seen are neck and back cases but after that the next most common injuries are shoulder and knee injuries.

It is important to consult with a physician that will give you a complete examination, so that all of your injuries stemming from an accident (whether car accident, slip and fall, or any other type of accident) are examined.  Similarly, when talking to an attorney, you should also be sure to discuss all injuries.

All accidents are unique and have to be judged on the facts of each case.  The advice in this blog is intended to be general and should not to be used as specific advice for your particular case, as the most slight difference in the facts could ultimately change the result. Also, this blog is, as the web site suggests, based on Florida law and the laws of any other states or another country could vary significantly from Florida. Please call us for a free consultation.
