Accidents represent sudden and unforeseen occurrences that can yield profound consequences. When it comes to personal injury, individuals frequently focus on the immediate physical impact, including injuries such as burns, lacerations, fractures, hemorrhages, concussions, among others, and the subsequent physical recovery that requires substantial medical expenses and work absence.
However, the impact of a personal injury goes beyond the physical impact as it can have a profound and lasting effect on the victim’s mental health, a less visible and understood aspect of recovery. Hale Law highlights the psychological aftermath of personal injury and the importance of pursuing a claim with a qualified attorney.
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is one of the most significant health concerns that occurs after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. Beyond PTSD, a personal injury victim can develop depression and anxiety due to loss of mobility, health decline, financial stress, social isolation, or the disruption of everyday routines. Other times, the struggle to adapt to life post-injury leads to adjustment issues that impede recovery or diminish quality of life.
Individuals or loved ones should be vigilant for signs of mental distress such as persistent sadness/low mood, excessive worry/fear, difficulty concentrating, appetite/weight/sleep changes, or feelings of guilt/worthlessness. To foster a comprehensive recovery, Hale Law recommends a holistic approach involving medical treatment, mental health support, self-care techniques, and support groups/communities.
Since dealing with the complexities of insurance claims and possible litigation adds to the mental burden of victims, seeking the assistance of a qualified personal injury attorney can alleviate some stress.
According to Hale Law, a personal injury attorney understands the strategies employed by insurance companies or corporations to devalue or deny claims. Leveraging their experience, skills, networks, and resources, such attorneys advocate for the interests of the injured party. An attorney can also provide clarity and legal guidance, ensuring victims have a voice in the justice system and receive the settlement they deserve.
