Types Of Damages That Can Be Pursued

It may take a day or a week for these injuries to be symptomatic.

When you see a medical professional, be sure to tell them you were in a motor vehicle accident and that your symptoms showed up after the accident. This will help the care provider know what to look for, and it will ensure that this information is included in your exam notes and chart.
