Getting into a car accident can change your life. Car accidents are very serious and can result in major damage to your car as well as injuries that can affect you for the rest of your life, and end with tens of thousands of dollars in medical bills and a slow and painful recovery. However, there may be something that you can do to get your life back, When you have a debilitating vehicle injury you have to live with for the rest of your life, you should be compensated for it, by the person or party that caused the accident or their insurance.

One type of debilitating injury that can result from a car accident is full paralysis or partial paralysis. Paralysis is when a person is unable to move at least one and possibly more muscles.  This may be a result of nerve damage or by an injury to the spinal cord. This can be an extremely debilitating injury and can change your life as you may have to use a wheel chair, and may not have use of your hands, legs or other parts of your body, possibly even those parts that are required to do your job, which you may have gone to school and spent years acquiring experience in.

Another possible injury when you have a car accident is a head injury that could result in brain damage. This can affect your speech, learning capabilities and possibly even your motor skills. A brain injury is a very serious type of debilitating injury and can reduce the quality of your life and even make you unable to work or to perform the tasks that you once loved doing, such as hobbies or spending time with your children. Head injuries are more rare in car accidents, because the brain is well protected inside the skull, but they do happen.

Another common result of a car accident is a back injury that can make you unable to work, or unable to work at the same job that you have experience in training in. This is particularly true if you have a back injury and your job was primarily physical, such as plumbing, construction or other types of hands-on jobs. Another possible result of a car accident is the fear of driving or the inability to drive at all. If you had a driving job such as a bus or taxi job this can mean the end of a great career and change your life considerably.
