Compensation for Your Losses
Injuries sustained in ATV accidents are often severe due to the relative lack of protection they offer and the heavy weights of the vehicles involved. These vehicles pose unique challenges because ATVs are usually driven at high speeds off the road,where unpredictable conditions often lead to rollovers and collisions.
Also, the state of Mississippi has no safety laws for ATVs, and many riders either do not wear helmets or are too young to drive. All of these factors combined can lead to serious accidents, life-changing injuries, and even fatalities.
Common injuries sustained in ATV accidents include:
- Road rash
- Amputations
- Broken bones
- Internal organ damage
- Torn ligaments and tendons
- Minor cuts, scrapes, and bruises
- Severe lacerations and significant bleeding
- Spinal cord injuries, resulting in partial or complete paralysis
- Traumatic brain injuries, resulting in disability, loss of motor functions, and loss of cognitive abilities
With compensation, you may be able to help pay for lost wages, ongoing medical care, hospital bills, damaged property, and more. However, the process for obtaining compensation is lengthy and complex. It is highly recommended that you retain an experienced attorney to guide you through the claims process while protecting your rights and best interests.
