California Auto Accidents
One of the most devastating experiences to go through is being injured in a car accident. This is mostly due to the fact that victims are usually left with painful, sometimes life-altering injuries that demand extensive, often expensive medical treatment.
In California, over 150,000 people are injured and require hospitalization annually as a result of injuries sustained in traffic-related incidents. Usually, injured victims are transported from the site of the crash and admitted into hospitals for treatment. Some injuries require emergency surgery and days or even weeks spent in hospitals. This usually means lost wages for most people, which can be extremely stressful. Especially when they are faced with the costs associated with their accident on top of their regular bills. Many people feel scared, confused, and generally unsure of how to move forward after being involved and injured in an accident.
When victims sustain injuries in accidents due to the negligence of other motorists sharing the road, it is crucial that they reach out to a California car crash lawyer as soon as they can. Injured accident victims may be entitled to financial compensation that can help alleviate some or all of the financial burdens they may face moving forward. Oftentimes, crash victims are able to recover compensation to cover both economic and non-economic damages, including:
- Long-term care expenses
- Medical bills
- Vehicle repairs/replacement
- Lost wages
- Mental turmoil
- Pain and suffering
- Punitive damages
In cases where victims lose their lives, surviving relatives may be entitled to compensation for funeral costs, burial fees, loss of consortium, and various other damages.
