What Is Whiplash?
Whiplash is term used to describe a specific type of neck injury. Often associated with rear-end accidents, whiplash often occurs when the neck is thrown violently forward and backward. While the neck muscles are often the most affected by whiplash, lower back whiplash injuries are also common.
Some people dismiss whiplash as a minor injury. Other critics don’t even believe that soft tissue neck injuries are real. The pain and suffering from whiplash is genuine, and in many cases, the pain associated with whiplash can last weeks or months or even longer.
What Are Common Symptoms of Whiplash?
Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of the following symptoms after a car accident:
- Stiff neck
- Trouble moving your neck
- Difficulty focusing
- Blurred vision
- Headaches
- Dizziness
Don’t underestimate the seriousness of your injury. If your neck hurts, seek immediate medical care. Whiplash is a serious injury and could be a symptom of an even more serious medical condition.

How long will it take to resolve my case?
It depends on many factors, such as the complexity of your case and how much money is at stake. In general, a case may take anywhere between a few months to a year. If your case goes to trial, it can take even longer.
Insurance companies try to delay the resolution of a case as long as possible. They don’t want to pay you the compensation you deserve. They are hoping that the longer they delay your case, the more likely it will be that you will give up or accept a lower settlement offer. We will guide you through the process every step of the way.
-
Should I accept a settlement offer from the insurance company?
Soon after your accident, you may be contacted by the insurance company. They are offering you a settlement! It may not be for as much as you were hoping, but they are promising quick payment. This offer will fall far short of covering the damages you have suffered. The insurance company just wants to save money.
You should never agree to any settlement unless you have first discussed the offer with an experienced Texas personal injury lawyer. You can get a much better settlement when an insurance company knows you have a personal injury attorney willing to go to trial on your behalf.
