Whiplash is a soft-tissue injury to the neck. It can be also called neck strain or a neck sprain and often accompanies other symptoms. Whiplash is usually caused by a sudden extension or flexation of the neck, and is commonly seen in car accidents.
If you have suffered whiplash and have other injuries, contact a whiplash attorney as soon as possible. A whiplash attorney can help you get a settlement or a judgment if you have suffered whiplash because of an accident. Ledger and Associates has experienced whiplash attorneys on its staff who understand the underlying effects of whiplash, including chronic headaches, memory loss, back problems, shoulder pain, burning or prickling sensations (paresthesias) and depression.
Whiplash is a serious injury that may also damage nerve roots, joints, and discs, severely affecting the quality of life for anyone unfortunate enough to experience it.
