Make no demands until you have talked to a personal injury attorney
Immediately after suffering a personal injury, you must inform the at-fault party (or their insurance provider) of your intention to make a claim for your damages. Yet before you fully comprehend the scope and cost of your injuries, you should not talk about numbers.
If at all possible, hold off until your injury has entirely healed. This could not be possible in the case of severe injuries that require years of therapy. In this case, you should get medical advice from experts regarding the length of your recovery and the cost of your care.
You need a legal and medical assessment for plastic surgery
Plastic surgery may be required for some facial injuries to lessen the appearance of scars that would otherwise be disfiguring. At Law Offices of Fernando D. Vargas, we collaborate closely with talented plastic surgeons to guarantee that our patients receive the treatment they need. In other cases, the client may not pay anything up front for the procedures; instead, the surgeon will be reimbursed later from the personal injury settlement. This is known as a lien.
You need a dental examination
Dental issues are often the result of serious head and face blows that cause facial injuries. Dental implants may be required to replace missing teeth in addition to repairing broken or fractured teeth. You will want to be able to include those costs in your compensation claims because these treatments could be extremely pricey.
You need a psychological evaluation
Serious psychological suffering may result from a significant face injury. This is particularly true if the damage is disfiguring or resulted from a traumatic experience, such a dog attack. By seeing a therapist, you can obtain expert confirmation of your emotional and mental distress, which can support your request for compensation in this area.
