After a car accident, many people experience whiplash. Whiplash is an injury that results from a sharp movement in the neck and head. Too much strain on your neck may cause muscle damage to that area, causing severe pain.
If you or a loved one developed whiplash because of someone else’s careless actions, you could be entitled to recover compensation. Call in the Strong Arm of an Arlington whiplash injury lawyer from Loncar Lyon Jenkins. We can help you fight for the justice and compensation you deserve.
Damages You Could Recover After a Whiplash Injury
After an accident, you could recover compensation for damages if you can prove the other party is at fault for your injury. For example, you could recover these damages after suffering whiplash.
Medical Expenses
You could include all medical expenses associated with the injury in your claim. Examples of costs you may incur include:
- Emergency department visits
- Ambulance rides
- Hospitalization
- Diagnostic testing
- Doctor’s visits
- Medications
- Rehabilitative care such as physical therapy
If your injury requires medical care long after you settle your claim, you could include the projected value of future medical bills. Our attorneys can help to calculate the value of future medical bills.
Lost Earnings
While you recover from your injuries, you might have to be out of work for some time. If this occurs, you can include lost earnings in your claim whether you missed work for a few days, weeks, or even months.
If you cannot return to work in the same capacity, you can include future lost earnings in your claim. This category can also include any retirement or medical benefits you lose.
Pain and Suffering
Pain and suffering are considered noneconomic losses. There is no tangible loss associated with pain and suffering damages. Instead, our attorneys will assign a value to the immediate and long-term pain, anguish, discomfort, or inconvenience your injury has caused.
Emotional Distress
Emotional distress damages compensate the victim for any negative psychological impacts the accident caused. For example, you could claim mental health treatment costs if you suffer from mental health issues such as sleep issues, depression, anxiety, or post-traumatic stress disorder.

What Is Whiplash?
Whiplash is an injury that primarily affects the neck. Although car accidents are most commonly associated with whiplash, other activities could cause this injury, such as:
- Contact sports
- Physical abuse
- Falls
The treatment plan usually requires exercises to the neck, while some people take pain medication. Fortunately, most people who sustain a whiplash injury get better within a few weeks. However, some people with whiplash have chronic neck pain and other complications that last for a long time.
Whiplash Symptoms
Signs of whiplash usually progress within a few days. Symptoms include:
- Neck pain and stiffness
- Diminished range of motion in the neck
- Headaches
- Fatigue or dizziness
- Pain when you move the neck
- Blurred vision
- Difficulty concentrating
If you believe you have whiplash symptoms, it is crucial to see a doctor so they can start you on a treatment plan and document your injury.
