The Heartbreaking Reality of Personal Injuries

It is widely understood that many accidents produce physical injuries. Many people fail to completely understand just how much of an impact an accident can have on a person’s emotional and psychological wellbeing. The truth of the matter remains that any type of accident can have a lasting impact on a victim, no matter how minor or how catastrophic the incident may have been.

You or your loved one may be suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) if you are displaying any of the following symptoms:

  • Reliving the event (or re-experiencing symptoms) through nightmares, flashbacks or triggers
  • Avoiding situations that remind you of the event
  • Negative changes in beliefs or feelings
  • Having trouble sleeping, focusing, concentrating
  • Easily startled, irritated, or angered

PTSD is one of the many potential consequences of a traumatic situation. California laws provide protection for individuals who are suffering with PTSD after an accident. Our San Jose personal injury lawyer believes that you deserve the opportunity to seek compensation for this aspect of your injuries.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Should I hire a lawyer for my personal injury case?

    There are several reasons for hiring a lawyer to represent you in your personal injury claim, rather than representing yourself. 1.) It allows you to focus on your own recovery, rather than the complicated details of your case. 2.) By hiring a skilled personal injury attorney to research your case and represent you in court, your chances of success improve drastically.

  • How long will my personal injury case take to resolve?

    This number can vary from one case to another, depending on the details of your situation. A lawsuit can take anywhere from several months to several years to settle.

  • What is the average settlement amount for a personal injury claim?

    The average compensation amount for a personal injury case is anywhere from $3,000 to $75,000, depending on what type of damages you are pursuing.

  • Does California put damage caps on claims for personal injury cases?

    No, only Medical Malpractices cases have a cap. California Civil Code section 3333.2 sets a cap on the amount of non-economic damages (pain and suffering) that can be recovered in a medical malpractice case.
