Types of Fractured Bones in Accidents
Our office has seen clients with horrible fractured bone injuries. There are three main types of fractures we tend to see after a vehicle crash, and each can vary in severity as well as in recuperation time:
- Simple Fractures - These involve a clean break in the bone. The name is misleading as it can represent a serious injury.
- Compound Fractures - These occur when the bone breaks through the skin, posing a risk of infection and more.
- Comminuted Fractures – This is when the bone shatters into multiple pieces, often requiring extensive medical treatment and multiple surgeries.
Each type of fracture can lead to different medical treatments including surgeries, varying recovery times, and can have long-term effects on a victim's quality of life and on the lives of family members who help take care of the injured person.
Understanding The Role of Negligence In Fractured Bone Cases in Pennsylvania
- General Negligence: Your Lenahan & Dempsey lawyer will work to demonstrate the other party (the defendant) acted negligently in operating their vehicle. This means proving that the defendant failed to exercise reasonable care, resulting in your injuries.
- Comparative Negligence: Pennsylvania follows a what is known as a modified comparative negligence rule. If the injured party is found to be partially at fault for the accident, the compensation may be reduced by their percentage of fault.
- Statute of Limitations: In Pennsylvania, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is typically two years from the date of the accident. However, in some circumstances, it can be longer. You must call us as soon as possible after a Fractured Bone case so we can determine how long you have to file suit.
