Injury Car Accidents in Los Angeles

Los Angeles continues to face significant challenges with car accidents, with over 10,000 incidents resulting in injuries each year. Common injuries include whiplash, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), fractures, and spinal cord injuries. Whiplash is especially prevalent in rear-end collisions and can lead to chronic pain, while TBIs may cause long-term cognitive and physical issues.

Personal injury in car accidents includes not only physical injuries like whiplash, TBIs, and fractures but also emotional distress, which is frequently overlooked.
