Understanding Personal Injury

From Thanksgiving to Black Friday to Christmas to New Years, with the stressful time of the holiday season quickly approaching injuries due to motor vehicle accidents are often at an all-time high. 

In fact, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration revealed that generally, there are “more motor vehicle traffic crash fatalities during holiday periods than during non-holiday periods due to increased travel time, more alcohol use, and excessive driving speed”. 

Unfortunately, (and to no surprise) a personal injury due to another driver’s negligence can significantly affect your holiday plans. Thankfully, there are laws in place for you to receive compensation for not only the physical extent of your injury but also the emotional aspect.
