When Atlanta Car Accidents Caused by Drunk Drivers Result in Broken Bones

Thousands of car accidents caused by drunk drivers occur each year, and if you have been a victim in one of these senseless collisions, then an Atlanta auto injury lawyer may be able to help mount your personal injury claim against the negligent driver who caused your accident. Broken bones from a car accident can cost tens of thousands of dollars in medical care, costs that you shouldn’t be forced to bear because of someone else’s recklessness and irresponsibility on the road. 

Symptoms of a broken bone after a serious car accident include: 

• noticeably misshapen joint or limb;
• intense pain at the site of injury;
• tingling, numbness, “pins and needles;”
• excessive bleeding, bruising, or swelling;
• bone protrusion through broken skin; and
• inability to move a limb or joint. 

If you have DUI injuries, statistics show that you may be more likely to receive fair compensation if you have legal representation. Speak with a car accident attorney in Atlanta about the circumstances of your claim in a no-cost consultation. You could be entitled to be reimbursed for the cost of your medical care, lost wages, vehicle repairs, and noneconomic damages for pain and suffering, mental anguish, and emotional duress.
