Defending the Rights of Accident Victims
Bone fractures are classified in a number of different ways. A hairline fracture is where there is a split along the bone, but it hasn't separated. A simple fracture is when the bone is broken into two pieces and a compound fracture is a case in which the bone punctures the skin after breaking. Any fracture needs to be treated by a skilled medical professional to ensure that the bone heals in the proper way.
Holding the Liable Party Responsible
Accidents that result in broken bones may involve another party who was negligent and contributed to the accident. In this case, the other party may be held liable. An example of this would be an accident caused by a careless driver who was texting while driving. Other types of accidents where another party was negligent might be accidents resulting from faulty products.
