Facial Injury Civil Litigation in the State of North Carolina

In addition to what is often a lengthy and painful healing process, facial injuries can have a debilitating psychological effect on accident victims. Whether a victim was cut by glass particles from a windshield, sustained severe bruising from an impact, or burned in a vehicle fire, the feeling of loss of personal identity is nearly universal. In some cases, reconstructive surgeons are able to minimize the long-term aesthetic affects, but in many instances, injury victims are left with visible scars. For this reason, a standard settlement offer from an insurance company lawyer or adjustor is almost never adequate to fully compensate a claimant.

The following common facial injuries can also cause long term complications:

• Orbital fractures – these skull fractures near the eye orbit can affect eye alignment, the optic nerve, and visual acuity.
• Eye injuries – Eye injuries can be truly devastating, and the complex surgeries involved can be very costly. Steps must be taken to identify all parties and insurance policies available to ensure that proper funds are collected to pay for past and future medical care, and for the suffering associated with lost vision and lost quality of life.
• Dental injuries – Damage to the jaws, teeth, and soft tissue of the mouth can be very painful and difficult to repair. Further, most dental repairs are not permanent and steps must be taken to prove the cost of future care needed to maintain post-accident repairs.
• Nasal injuries and fractures – Injuries to the bones of the nose can produce breathing difficulty and severe sinus damage. Insurance companies seek to overlook the full cost of proper treatment, and the full impact on overall health caused by serious nasal injuries.
• Nerve damage – Serious facial lacerations and scars often result in painful nerve damage. Medications like gabapentin, a nerve medication that minimizes nerve pain, are typically permanent prescriptions. We know how to prove that the medication will be needed permanently, and how to prove and collect the cost of all medication you might need over the remainder of your life.
