    What to Do After a Hip Injury

    A broken hip is one of the most painful injuries that a person can endure. A hip injury may cause radiating pain and require extensive surgery. For the best chance of making a full recovery, you need to seek medical treatment immediately after an injury to the hip or pelvis.

    If your broken hip was the result of someone else’s negligence or wrongdoing, you might be entitled to compensation. Under New York law, you only have a limited amount of time to file a claim for damages based on personal injury. You should consult with a White Plains personal injury lawyer as soon as possible after your accident or injury.

    Common Causes of Broken Hip Injuries

    The Cleveland Clinic estimates that over 300,000 people suffer a hip fracture every year in the United States. Hip injuries are generally caused by a sudden impact, such as from a fall or auto accident.

    Broken hip Accidents caused by someone else’s negligence that could result in a broken or injured hip:

    • Bus accidents
    • Car accidents
    • Construction accidents
    • Motorcycle accidents
    • Slip and fall accidents
    • Truck accidents
    • Workplace accidents

    If your hip injury was the result of another person’s mistake or wrongdoing, you might be entitled to compensation for your injuries. Damages in a broken hip case may cover your medical bills, future treatment, physical therapy, in-home assistance, pain and suffering, lost wages, and more.

    Types of Hip Injuries

    The hip is made up of a series of bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and soft tissue that support the joint. Any hip fracture can cause excruciating pain and limit a person’s mobility.

    Types of hip fractures include:

    • Femoral neck fracture
    • Intertrochanteric fracture
    • Intracapsular fracture
    • Stress fracture

    Femoral neck fractures and intertrochanteric hip fractures are the two most common types of hip fractures. A hip injury can worsen over time, becoming unbearable. Depending on the severity of the injury, you may need surgery, hip replacement, or an assisted walking device.

    No matter what type of hip injury you sustained, you need to contact a qualified White Plains broken hip attorney immediately after your injury to determine whether you can hold another party financially liable for your losses.

    Long-term Effects of a Broken Hip

    A broken hip can have both short and long-term health consequences. Because a hip fracture or other injury to the pelvis can immobilize you, there is a high risk of developing life-threatening complications. As noted by the Mayo Clinic, approximately 50% of people who suffer a broken hip never regain the ability to live independently.

    Complications related to a broken hip:

    • Bedsores
    • Blood clots
    • Infections
    • Urinary tract infections
    • Pneumonia
    • Weakening of the muscles
    • Increased risk of additional injury or death

    A hip injury can affect nearly every aspect of your life. Tragically, a hip fracture can rob you of your independence, requiring you to rely on in-home assistance from a nurse or medical professional.

    Shaking hands with lawyerIf your hip injury made it so that you were unable to return to work or perform your day-to-day activities, you might be eligible for additional compensation to cover your lost wages and loss of future earning capacity.

    Hiring an Attorney After a Broken Hip

    Many people wonder whether they need an attorney after they suffer a hip injury. If your broken hip was the result of another person’s negligence or wrongdoing, you should consult with an attorney to determine whether they should be held legally responsible.

    A hip injury is rarely fixed with rest and relaxation. In the vast majority of cases, there are permanent health consequences related to the broken hip. A personal injury lawsuit can help you obtain compensation for your medical bills and other out-of-pocket expenses related to the accident that caused your injury.

    In addition, your financial recovery may include money for your non-economic losses such as your pain and suffering, permanent disability or disfigurement, loss of consortium, emotional distress, and more.

      Hi Mr.John LeifertI just wanted to shoot you a quick note to thank you again for your services. My car accident, I was incredibly stressed the full dealing with insurance companies and sorting out what was my next step towards my injuries. Especially since it was my first time involved in any type of traffic accident, I was so lost and confused!Luckily I discovered your service at the perfect timing. You were able to make sense of the multiple demand letter requests, photo evidence, and medical documents that kept my case in track. You always make sure to follow up with me. I'm so happy we were able to receive a successful outcome. Good luck to you and your associates and thank you again.Miguel Perez

      When I needed to take on a leading US automaker, I turned to the White Plains law firm of Denlea & Carton and their commercial litigation team. They filed an action in Federal Court and after three years of hard fought litigation, they helped me to obtain a great result ! Not only for myself, but for consumers around the country. Jeff, Jim and everyone at the firm were superb. They communicated with me regularly, and ensured that I understood everything that was happening. I couldn’t be happier about my representation. If you need a firm that gets great results, and isn’t afraid to go up against large corporations, look no further than Denlea & Carton!

      I researched quite a few firms before deciding on Denlea & Carton, and I couldn’t be happier that I did. They surpassed my expectations in every respect. They were kind, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. They treated my case as if it was their own, and never backed down from the fight with the defendant until they obtained an incredible result for me. There is a difference between law firms, and I’m glad I took the time to realize it. I would recommend Jim and Jeff (and everyone else who helped me) without hesitation. They’re terrific!
