A severe fracture is among the most serious injuries that a person can suffer and live. According to the CDC, each year, over 800K patients are hospitalized because of a fall injury, most often resulting in a hip fracture or head injury. Overall, 3M older adults visit emergency departments for fall injuries every year.
If you, or a loved one, have sustained fractures as a result of the negligence of other parties, we are here to help you file a claim to recover damages.
Case EvaluationFractures from car accidents are generally more serious than fractures from falls due to the impact forces that hit a person’s body.

Bone fractures may require a long recovery time, which is why your compensation needs to include all costs incurred as a result of the accident. Insurance companies may try to minimize the effects of a fracture on your health and quality of life to avoid making a fair payout. However, we can stand up for you so that you are fully compensated for your losses.
Some people may, unfortunately, experience fracture complications, such as nerve and muscle damage, infection, malunion, nonunion, and fat embolism syndrome. Complications could lead, in the worst-case scenario, to amputation, or, in other cases, to loss of function, long-term pain, and the need for additional surgery. The exact treatment that a person will need when facing bone fractures depends on their severity, as well as where on the body the injury is located. At The Law Offices of Sean M. Cleary, we will help you recover damages for past and future costs related to your fracture.
