Head, neck, and back injuries are one of the most common injuries sustained in automobile accidents. These accidents can be extremely painful and require medical attention for healing. The discomfort and injuries may be delayed after an accident, so be aware if a few days post accident you begin to feel new pain. Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain after a car accident, struggling to get back to work, or facing a stack of medical bills you didn’t ask for, you shouldn’t have to carry that weight alone.
At Youd Law, Lance D. Youd has built his practice around one simple idea: people who are hurting deserve someone in their corner. As a trusted back injury attorney in Salem, Oregon, Lance fights to make sure insurance companies don’t minimize what you’re going through and that you receive every dollar you’re owed.
These injuries are some of the most common and most life-altering results of accidents. A back injury from a car accident is something we see regularly, but the causes don’t stop there. Head, neck, and back injuries often result from:
Even a so-called “minor” fender bender can cause serious damage to your spine, discs, or soft tissue. Whiplash alone affects millions of Americans each year, and symptoms can take days or even weeks to fully appear. That’s why it matters to have an experienced whiplash attorney who understands the medical side of these claims just as well as the legal side.
Lance has represented clients dealing with a wide range of head, neck, and back injuries, including:
According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), back pain is one of the leading reasons people miss work and visit the doctor in the United States. These aren’t injuries you just “push through.” They change how you sleep, how you move, and how you live. Your compensation should reflect that reality.
Insurance companies have one goal: to pay you as little as possible. They may try to downplay your injuries, rush you into a low settlement, or argue that your pain was pre-existing. Lance knows those tactics inside and out.
As a dedicated neck injury lawyer and head injury lawyer, Lance takes time to understand the full picture of how your injury has affected your life, not just your medical records, but your daily routine, your ability to work, and your peace of mind. He has a well-demonstrated history of negotiating medical liens and reducing bills so that more money stays where it belongs: in your hands.
And with Youd Law’s no recovery, no fee promise, there’s no financial risk in reaching out.
If you or someone you love is living with a head, neck, or back injury after an accident, the most important step you can take is to talk to a back injury lawyer who will truly listen. Lance and the team at Youd Law are here to handle the legal fight so you can focus on healing.
