Car accidents in Fairmont often result in serious injuries that take months or even years to heal. At Manchin Injury Law Group, we’ve supported crash victims through a wide range of physical and emotional challenges.
Common injuries include broken bones, complex fractures, and head trauma such as concussions or traumatic brain injuries. Many victims also suffer spinal cord injuries, herniated discs, or back trauma, which can significantly impact daily life.
Severe crashes may cause burns, deep cuts, internal injuries that require surgery, or even amputations. In some cases, these injuries lead to permanent disability.
The emotional toll is just as real. Victims often experience psychological harm, including PTSD, anxiety, and depression.
Even if your injuries aren’t visible, if someone else’s negligence caused the crash, you may be entitled to compensation under West Virginia law.
