For people who are injured in an accident that was caused by a distracted driver, dealing with the physical, emotional, mental and financial impacts of the accident can become consuming. For those who are seriously injured, a loss of income added to the cost of medical care can make an already stressful situation even more so.

Then, you can allow your mind to settle while you focus on healing physically, emotionally and mentally from the trauma of the accident.
