People involved in car accidents are often forced to deal with an array of consequences. Although we like to think that everyone comes out of vehicle accidents unharmed, this is far from the truth. In fact, where more than 17000 people are hospitalized with injuries from car accidents each year in the state of Texas. In many cases, victims suffer from broken bones in spinal cord injuries that leave them in overwhelming pain. As if dealing with pain were not enough, thousands of people require extensive medical treatment for their injuries. In most cases of severe injuries, victims are required to spend extensive time in area hospitals and go through therapy for months. The mental, emotional, and physical consequences are only half the battle.
Quite often, victims are forced to spend tens of thousands of dollars on the medical treatment they need for their injuries.
