Cuts & Lacerations
Charleston WV Cuts & Lacerations Attorney
Overview
Most types of injuries, no matter the cause, can result in a variety of cuts and lacerations. Some of these injuries can penetrate deep into the skin, causing permanent nerve damage, risk of life from blood loss, scarring, or other severe injuries. On the other hand, many cuts and lacerations are quite minor and present no immediate danger. At the Love Law Firm, Charleston, WV, personal injury attorney Charles Love will take on cuts and laceration cases of all types.
Whether the injury occurred due to an accident or you suspect that the cuts and lacerations are a sign of elder abuse at a West Virginia nursing home, lawyer Charles Love ensures compassionate, one-on-one legal representation to help you fight for the justice and the compensation you rightfully deserve.
PERSONAL INJURY
One of the most common causes of cuts and lacerations comes from accidents and personal injury. Whereas sharp objects can cut through the skin and cause blood and possible nerve damage, blunt trauma is a major contributor to serious lacerations, especially life-threatening lacerations to the head. Some examples of lacerations caused by an accident may include:
- Car, truck, bicycle, and motorcycle accidents
- Premises liability
- Slips and falls
- Pedestrian accidents
- And many others
If you’ve received serious cuts and/or lacerations in an accident around the Charleston, WV area, your first task is to seek medical intervention to take care of the damages and mitigate any life-threatening injuries. Secondly, by calling the Love Law Firm, we’ll determine the party(s) responsible for your injuries, investigate the accident to determine the level of negligence that caused the accident and pursue your case in court seeking damages incurred from medical expenses, therapy expenses, permanent disfigurement, loss of income from work, and pain and suffering.
SIGNS OF ELDER ABUSE
Even when cuts and lacerations are minor and not life-threatening, they may still be signs of abuse. This is especially true when a Charleston, WV nursing home is either abusing or being negligent to the individuals under the care of the nursing home’s staff. Although cuts and lacerations can occur through no fault of the nursing home, if cuts and lacerations appear frequently, you should be aware that abuse or negligence may be occurring in the nursing home.
If you do suspect nursing home abuse, make sure to document all instances of cuts and lacerations. By contacting the Love Law Firm, we will relentlessly pursue the nursing home abuse claim and take the proper steps to ensure that the nursing home doesn’t continue to harm your loved one or anyone else.
