Common Causes of Bone Fractures
A bone fracture occurs when too much pressure is exerted against a bone of the body, causing it to crack, splinter or break. Broken bone injuries can arise from many types of traumatic accidents and preventable incidents in Las Vegas, including:
- Motor vehicle accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Bicycle accidents
- Pedestrian accidents
- Slip and fall incidents
- Workplace accidents
- Sports and recreational injuries
There are 206 bones in the human body—any of which could break in an accident. Some of the most commonly broken bones include leg fractures, arm and wrist breaks, broken ribs, clavicle and collarbone fractures, and skull fractures.
Legal Rights of Injury Victims
Broken bones can be catastrophic, especially with multiple fractures. They can cause complications such as punctured lungs, organ damage, nerve damage and permanent disability. It is important for victims with broken bones to understand their legal rights and options when it comes to holding someone accountable for the injury and damage caused.
Establishing Liability
Liability refers to someone’s legal and financial responsibility for negligently causing harm to another person. Negligence in personal injury law is a breach of the duty of care, meaning an act or omission that does not meet the required standards of care.
To receive financial compensation for a broken bone injury in Las Vegas, the filing party or plaintiff must prove negligence. This requires evidence of the accused party or defendant breaching a duty of care.
