- Minor Car Crash Injuries Can Lead to Big Medical Costs
More than 140,000 Arizona car accidents occur on an annual basis, and when these situations occur they lead to more than 65,000 injuries. While some of these injuries are extremely serious, thousands of them are of a nature that people would describe them as minor. Unfortunately, many people who suffer from what they believe are minor injuries do not explore their legal rights and options with a Phoenix car accident lawyer until it’s too late and they have incurred enormous medical bills and suffered through excruciating pain. Below is a look at how seemingly minor injuries can lead to enormous medical bills and other costs.
Minor Injuries Resulting from Arizona Car Accidents
There are many different injuries that can result from Arizona car accidents, and examples of those that are common and that are thought of as minor include the following:
- Broken glass injuries – Injuries sustained because of glass that breaks or shatters during an Arizona car accident generally includes cuts and abrasions.
- Seat belt injuries – Many do not consider the fact that a seat belt can lead to minor injuries that include bruising and sprains of the joint areas.
- Whiplash – Whiplash is considered by some to be a minor injury because it cannot generally be seen on an X-ray test result and because many people simply think that it’s not a serious injury.
Any of the injuries listed above and many others can become serious problems both financially and medically for those who do not have them treated immediately. These problems that can develop include the potential for infections to develop from broken glass-caused cuts and abrasions, ongoing tendon problems caused by an initial seat belt injury and serious and never-ending neck and shoulder problems that result from the unnatural motions that lead to whiplash injuries. These problems can ultimately require extensive medical care and treatment and even surgery.
How An Attorney Can Help Get Compensation
Anyone who is involved in an Arizona car accident and who suffers what may seem like a minor injury should not simply assume that their problems will disappear. Instead, even if someone suffers a minor injury, he or she should seek medical attention and then seek the advice of a Arizona auto accident attorney who understands the legal process and how minor injuries can become major problems.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value As someone who is familiar with the inner workings of the auto insurance industry I can whole heartedly endorse Steven J. Jones and Phillips law group as someone I would want on my side should litigation take place. They handled my case professionally, honestly, and with satisfactory results which I would not have expected without enlisting their help.

My Attorney Sean Davis and his paralegal Hannah Dustin worked on my case. They listened to the problems that I was having with my case and they both got right to work. First they found me a doctor that actually listened to my problems from my car accident and worked quickly to form a plan that was comfortable for me and the doctor. The doctor was the best and after a couple of procedures the pain in my neck was gone. Behind the scenes Sean and Hannah were working hard to get my case settled with the insurance company. They kept in contact with me on all aspects of my case. They settled my case much faster than I expected and for more than I was expecting. If you want two real professional legal people to work on your case, I would highly recommend Sean and Hannah to you. I cannot say enough nice things about these two. Thank you so much, Rickey Hart .

It’s an Honor and a Privilege to work for a company that cares about its employees and clients for 12 years. I’ve seen Management go out of their way to help someone whether it’s a personal matter or work related. I am also reminded of many occasions where a Client needed urgent help and we as a Team were able to get the person immediate assistance. At Phillips Law we make that happen through Teamwork and a dedication to our profession. I’ve had numerous jobs in several other fields, those were just jobs. This is a home. Many of us have been here for quite a few years, it feels like one large extended family.

Great experience! Took care of pretty much everything, and I always felt like I want in good hands. Caroline Fa. was also a great help with everything. She always returned my calls and I never felt unheard. Even after my case she would still help me with my insurance documents.
