How Do You Handle Medical Care Even After Your Case Settles in Las Vegas, Nevada?


When you are in a serious car accident in Las Vegas, Nevada, you will likely need medical care even after your case settles. When you are in a car accident or a slip and fall, your immediate feeling usually is one of shock. Once the shock wears off, then your body starts to feel the effects of the accident. After an auto accident where you injured, your body will generally take about three months for its tissues to heal from the injuries you sustained.

However, if you sustained more severe internal injuries to your spine or other parts of your body, you will require more treatment. In very serious accident cases, you may need future medical care for the foreseeable future. This does not mean that your case has to be open until you stop needing treatment.

Instead, a highly skilled personal injury attorney will make sure that the necessary medical and other experts are hired to document your future medical care. When your case is submitted for settlement, the information will be provided as part of your future damages. That way, when your case settles, the medical care you will require in the future will be part of your settlement.  

Next time we will discuss medical records in the personal injury context.

Research also shows that impairment increases significantly when marijuana use is combined with alcohol. Studies have found that many drivers test positive for alcohol and THC, making it clear that drinking and drugged driving are often linked behaviors.” All 50 states and the District of Columbia have laws ...
