The Road to Recovery for Uber Accident Victims
Healing after an Uber car accident may involve numerous stages and interventions. For some victims, especially those with delayed-onset symptoms, just diagnosing the injuries and their severity can be challenging. Treating Uber accident injuries may involve a combination of interventions, ranging from relatively conservative measures like physical therapy to invasive surgeries. Follow-up appointments, monitoring, and changes in treatment plans are often necessary throughout the process of rehabilitation.
Recovery can be a journey of its own. When the path to physical recovery is long, difficult, or potentially even incomplete, how you document this process and its challenges can impact the results you achieve through your Uber accident lawsuit.
While Uber and Lyft continue to rake in billions of dollars of profits every year, when you’re injured in an accident, they will do their best to make sure that they do not pay you fairly for the injuries that you’ve sustained. That’s why you need a lawyer at UberHurtMe.com to stand up for what you deserve.
Comprehensive Documentation Supports Your Claim for Uber Car Accident Compensation
Documenting your recovery to support your Uber accident lawsuit involves presenting all of the facts, accounts, and evidence to provide the most complete picture of your medical needs, progress, and life after an accident.
Medical Treatment
To substantiate your claim, it’s important to document your medical evaluations and all interventions. From your appointments with specialists to your test results, prescriptions, and procedures, every aspect of your medical care and rehabilitation can contribute to your claim for compensation.
At Drazin and Warshaw, we handle all types of Uber and Lyft accidents. In handling catastrophic injury claims involving Uber and Lyft, we make sure our clients’ medical conditions are treated properly by state-of-the-art institutions and top medical providers.
While the actual costs of your medical care are important for establishing your economic damages in the form of medical expenses, the full list of treatments you have been through also helps to establish the severity of your injuries. Documentation of your medical treatment can also contribute to your damages for pain and suffering, particularly if you have been through invasive procedures with difficult recoveries.
Recovery Progress
The notes your providers keep pertaining to your care and treatment contain valuable updates on the severity of your condition, your progress, and your lingering limitations. Be sure to address your concerns in full with your providers, including physicians (general practitioners and specialists), surgeons, physical and occupational therapists, and other practitioners involved in your care.
Drawing on these records, we can establish your recovery progress and present a strong case for the compensation you deserve, bolstered by compelling accounts of the difficulties you face in learning how to walk again, regaining strength and range of motion, or finding effective means of relieving or reducing pain.
Impact on Daily Life
Your injuries affect you all day, every day. In some instances, they may limit or interfere with certain activities. In other cases, their effects are a constant factor preventing you from living your life. One of our goals in documenting your damages in an Uber accident lawsuit is to portray a complete picture of the ways your injuries affect you on a daily basis.
While your formal medical records can assist in this effort, they aren’t the only evidence that serves this purpose. Keeping a recovery journal provides a valuable, ongoing account of your pain, your limitations, and your frustrations during the recovery process. This account reveals what it’s like to live with your injuries daily, providing humanizing context to the clinical data contained in your medical records.
At UberHurtMe.com, we’ve seen firsthand the devastating effects that injuries in Ubers can have on you and your family. We will be there every step of the way to make sure that you’re treated fairly and get maximum compensation.
Our Focus on Thorough Documentation for an Uber Accident Lawsuit
Achieving a successful outcome in the legal process depends on the documentation that supports your claim.
The purpose of the compensation you receive in a lawsuit is to make you financially whole to the fullest extent possible. Think of documentation of your recovery and your damages as your opportunity to establish the losses for which you need to be made whole.
At Drazin & Warshaw, we know exactly how important thorough documentation is for securing maximum compensation for Uber accident victims. We use evidence such as the following to document your recovery and the full extent of your damages:
- Medical records, including test results, patient charts, and providers’ notes
- Receipts and medical bills
- Employment-related doctors’ notes and work leave paperwork
- Wage loss statements
- Projections of future medical expenses and lost earning capacity
- Receipts for costs of accommodating your injuries and long-term limitations, such as home renovations, accessible vehicles, and hiring outside help for tasks you can no longer perform on your own
- Accounts of your physical pain and suffering, emotional distress, and decline in enjoyment of life as a result of the accident
