ACCIDENT PERMANENT INJURY AND DISABILITY: A permanent injury and disability is an injury that causes you to not be able to perform your normal work duties or engage in typical daily activities that you participated in before your car accident. Permanent injuries and disabilities are ongoing and will affect you for the rest of your life. Such disabilities can range in degree, established by determining at what level (if any) you can continue to work and function in daily life despite your injuries. Permanent disabilities can range from partial disability to total disability.

Collisions that lead to permanent injuries and disabilities can be especially tragic. A permanent injury and disability will affect your life forever. Everyday tasks become challenges, like brushing your teeth, showering, or cleaning up around the house. Depending on the severity of your disability, you may have a hard time completing even simple tasks without assistance.

FINANCES

Your finances will also be greatly affected by your permanent injury and disability, as you may no longer be able to work. Many disabled people are able to get some type of income from the government, but it’s almost never enough. Whether or not you will be able to work depends on the type of disability you have and whether or not you were able to find a job with proper accommodations.  However, finding another job may not be so easy that fits the needed accommodations.

LONG RECOVERY PERIODS

Permanent disabilities are also known for having long recovery periods, taking possibly months or even years of therapy and treatment. During this time, you will not only be incurring substantial medical bills, but you may have no way of earning income to pay for these medical bills and other costs of living.  

AFFECT ON WORK, PERSONAL LIFE, AND QUALITY OF LIFE

A permanent injury and disability can adversely affect your work, personal life, and even your quality of life. As such, seeking complete and just compensation when your permanent injury and disability is caused by someone else’s negligence is paramount. Permanent injuries and disabilities not only lead to extensive medical treatment, hospital stays, and increasing expenses, but they also create ongoing, unpredictable future expenses.
