Whiplash is a difficult type of soft tissue injury for many reasons. First of all, it may not be immediately apparent at the time of the car accident that caused it. The victim might not need to get in the ambulance and go to the hospital. The pain may not begin until the next day or later. Furthermore, the full intensity of the whiplash injury may not reveal itself until even further down the line. These obstacles should not prevent you from seeking compensation.
The muscles in the back and neck are like rubber bands. There are limits to how much they can stretch. When pushed too far unprepared, the result is a soft tissue injury. Scar tissue builds up and impacts range of motion.
The attorneys at Heller & Heller, P.A., understand this injury and help victims in Coral Springs and throughout South Florida explore their legal options.
