 Reckless drivers often cause car accidents in Tennessee, resulting in injuries causing neck and back pain. While this can be a common injury, you likely need an experienced personal injury lawyer from the beginning.
What causes these back and neck injuries? The force associated with a car accident can cause serious damage to the back and neck area. These injuries may result in long-term discomfort as well as negatively impacting victims economically due to loss of work, medical bills, therapy, and potentially lifelong issues. One of the most common injuries is 'whiplash'. The inertia of opposing forces in an impact accident can and often results in a violent movement of the head. This injury, which may take several days to fully develop, can be extremely painful and debilitating. Lower back pain, caused by a misalignment or damage to the spinal discs may also be the result of a car accident. Ligaments, muscles, and tendons along the spine may also be damaged. What kinds of treatments may I expect? Treatments for these injuries vary from physical therapy, to medications, to spinal surgery. Many of these injuries may last for months, and in some cases, for a lifetime. But this wasn't my fault! If your car accident was not your fault, is it fair to you that you suffer due to someone else's negligence? We think not. Seek legal advice before agreeing to anything. Neck and back injuries are no stranger to insurance companies. Their adjusters and experts may attempt to claim your injury is minor and attempt to minimize your claim. It is important for accident victims to seek legal opinions sooner rather than later in these cases.

The lawsuit says Chloe was with her mother in a children's area on the ship's 11th deck. The mother had to attend to another matter, and the child's grandfather (Anello) came to supervise the child. The lawsuit says "Mr. Anello was closely supervising Chloe as she played," and at one point "Chloe walked to a nearby wall of glass windows on the same deck," her grandfather accompanied her. "Unknown to Mr. Anello at that time, this was not, in fact, a wall of fixed glass," the suit continued. Instead, some of the panes in the middle row could be opened, including other passengers.
After reaching the windows, the girl asked to be lifted so she could bang on the glass as she did at her brother’s hockey games, the suit says. The grandfather lifted her onto the railing and held her as she leaned forward to bang on the glass that they thought to be in front of them. But with no glass there, "she slipped from Mr. Anello’s arms, falling through the open pane and down approximately 150 feet below" onto the pier in San Juan, killing her, according to the suit. The family's suit suggests the accident could have been avoided if the cruise ship's owners posted warning signs, marks on the windows, or other methods to prevent such an incident.
