Numerous semi trucks travel Ohio's highways on a daily basis. While most truck drivers are skilled at maneuvering these large big rigs, some are inexperienced and reckless. This negligence can lead to accidents and serious injuries. These injuries can be catastrophic in nature and lead to life-threatening medical conditions that can cost victims hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars. Because of this, legal action is often a necessary step.
Many accidents result in superficial wounds such as bruises, lacerations, scarring and disfigurement, but many are much more serious in nature and require surgery and many years of treatment. Such injuries include brain trauma, amputations, paralysis and spinal cord injuries. Broken bones and neck and back problems are also common in vehicle accidents.
These conditions not only result in a long recovery, but dramatic changes in the lives of the victims and their families. The victims may struggle with living with a disability. They may be unable to return to work for many years or even the rest of their lives. This can be devastating if the victim has a family to support. A disability can also disrupt the lives of family members who will have to spend much of their time caring for the victim. All of these changes lead to a physical, emotional and financial toll on the victims and their families.
