Common Car Accident Injuries We Handle

Car accidents can result in severe injuries that significantly impact victims’ lives. Our firm regularly represents individuals who have suffered serious harm in car collisions, including:

• Road rash and extensive skin abrasions that may need surgical intervention and carry a risk of permanent scarring.
• Head and brain injuries, ranging from concussions to traumatic brain injuries. Even with airbags and seatbelts, these injuries often require prolonged medical care and rehabilitation.
• Spinal cord injuries, which may result in partial or total paralysis, necessitating lifelong medical needs and lifestyle adjustments.
• Multiple fractures, especially in limbs and ribs, which are common in car crashes and often require surgery and lengthy recovery periods.
• Internal injuries, such as organ damage and internal bleeding, demanding urgent medical attention and carrying potential long-term effects.
• Joint and ligament injuries, particularly in shoulders, knees, and other impact-prone areas, sometimes requiring surgery and intensive therapy.
• Psychological trauma, including PTSD, depression, and anxiety, as victims cope with the emotional aftermath of a serious accident.
  
  

Car accident injuries can profoundly affect every aspect of your life. At Harper, Evans, Hilbrenner & Netemeyer, our team collaborates with medical experts to comprehensively document your injuries, ensuring you receive compensation to address both immediate and future medical needs.

Missouri law gives you a five-year window to file a personal injury claim. While this statute of limitations provides ample time, Harper, Evans, Hilbrenner & Netemeyer advises clients to act swiftly to protect their interests and strengthen their case. Securing compensation for your injuries and losses means taking prompt action to gather evidence and document the impact of the accident.

Through a successful personal injury claim, you may recover compensation for:

• Medical expenses, both current and anticipated.
• Ongoing rehabilitation and therapy costs.
• Lost wages and reduced earning potential.
• Pain, suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life.



When someone else’s negligence has already cost you your health and peace of mind, Harper, Evans, Hilbrenner & Netemeyer fights to hold the responsible parties accountable. Our attorneys stand up to individual drivers, commercial entities, and their insurers to secure fair compensation for our clients throughout Missouri.
