One of the biggest mistakes people make is minimizing the extent of their injuries after an accident. Whether you’ve been involved in a head-on collision, T-boned at an intersection, or rear-ended in traffic, your injuries deserve to be treated seriously, and you deserve to be compensated fairly.
At Brushe Law, we’ve seen too many cases where clients initially brushed off symptoms, only to later face complications that made recovery more difficult and legal claims harder to support.
Here’s why you should always take your injuries seriously:
1. Your Health Comes First
Delaying treatment or assuming you’re “fine” can lead to worsened injuries. Even seemingly minor discomforts can indicate more serious underlying issues like soft tissue damage, concussions, or spinal injuries.
2. Documentation is Critical
Seeking prompt medical attention creates a clear, documented connection between your accident and your injuries. This documentation is key to building a strong case and securing compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
3. Insurance Companies Use Silence Against You
If you don’t report injuries early, insurance companies may argue that they weren’t caused by the accident. Don’t give them the opportunity to devalue your claim.
At Brushe Law, we fight to make sure our clients are taken seriously from day one. If you’ve been injured in any type of vehicle accident, don’t wait. Get checked out and call our office so we can walk you through your options.
