The Physical, Financial, and Mental Impacts of Work Injuries or Car Wrecks
At Sandoval Law Firm, PLLC, we handle nonsubscriber work injury cases and car wreck cases, often resulting in severe injuries or even death. Suffering a serious injury due to someone else’s negligence has a profound impact on the injured victim and their family. Whether it’s a nonsubscriber or auto accident case, the incident and resulting injuries change our clients’ lives forever, affecting them physically, financially, and mentally.
The Physical Impact of a Personal Injury on an Injured Victim:
Experiencing a personal injury fundamentally alters your daily life. Physical limitations, often unprecedented, become apparent. Activities once taken for granted may now be impossible, or if attempted, may not be as successful as before. Common areas affected include:
- Family life: Cooking, cleaning, yard work, caring for yourself, children, or the elderly.
- Hobbies: Dancing, clubbing, crafting, outdoor activities, attending concerts, and live events.
- Exercise: Going to the gym, running, biking, visiting the park, and all physical fitness activities.
- Resting: Getting a good night’s sleep without tossing and turning becomes a challenge.
The Financial Impact of a Personal Injury on an Injured Victim:
Following a personal injury, you are likely to encounter financial challenges due to the aforementioned physical limitations. Even if you have saved for unforeseen circumstances, these limitations hinder your ability to financially support yourself and your family. The financial impact starts with emergency and follow-up medical bills. You must then navigate how to cover the ongoing medical care required. The financial strain can be overwhelming and includes:
- Emergency room and follow-up care medical bills.
- Loss of ability to work (Lost wages).
- Difficulty paying for the mortgage, car payment, utilities, credit cards, and cell phone bills.
- Inability to attend planned events due to financial constraints, such as travel expenses.
- Failure to meet other financial obligations, such as children’s school or extracurricular events.
The Mental Impact of a Personal Injury on an Injured Victim:
Beyond the physical and financial burdens, personal injuries take a considerable toll on an individual’s mental well-being. Coping with pain, frustration, anger, anxiety, and depression becomes a challenging aspect of the recovery process. Clients have reported experiencing:
- Depression: Feelings of unworthiness or uselessness.
- Anxiety: Concerns about the future and survival.
- Stress and Loss of Sleep: Constantly reliving the traumatic event as if it just occurred.
- Overwhelming thoughts of losing control of oneself and life.
