Back Injury & Arm Injury Cases

Road accidents can cause many different sorts of injuries.  One of the most common is an injury to arms. Arm injuries that involve muscle strain, crush injuries, fractures, nerve injuries or other serious problems can seriously affect quality of life and the ability to work.

Back injuries are common and the complexity of the spine and the muscles that surround it mean that the consequences can be severe. Back injuries can be life limiting and can occur as a result of an accident at work, such as lifting heavy objects or a fall, car accidents, sporting accidents or an assault.
