Back and neck injuries can cause chronic pain and disability. Here is how these claims are valued and proven in Vermont.
A Spectrum of Injury
Back and neck injuries range from strains and herniated discs to nerve damage and, in severe cases, spinal cord injury. Even injuries that do not show clearly on imaging can cause lasting pain and limitation.
Proving Causation
Insurers frequently blame back and neck pain on age or pre-existing conditions. Consistent treatment, diagnostic imaging, and a clear medical history help connect the injury to the accident.
Long-Term Impact
Chronic back and neck conditions can affect your ability to work and enjoy life for years. A thorough claim accounts for future care and lasting effects.
