Orthopedic Injury Attorney Santa Clara, Pittsburg, Corona, Vallejo
Each year, millions of victims visit emergency rooms across the country because of orthopedic injuries sustained in an accident. Motor vehicle accidents are now the leading cause of these injuries. To make matters worse, orthopedic injuries can be disabling and are often poorly diagnosed. In many cases, these injuries can be much worse than they first appear.
More Than Just Broken Bones
We typically think of orthopedic injuries as fractures but these injuries can go far beyond broken bones. Orthopedic injuries can involve any part of the entire musculoskeletal system including the muscles, joints, ligaments, tendons, and cartilage that hold our entire skeletal system together and make it possible for us to walk and move.
