Fractured Bones

Did You Suffer a Bone Fracture?

Personal Injury Attorneys Serving Agoura Hills

Fractures, also known as broken bones, are some of the most common injuries caused in falls or car accidents. However, many times these may have long-term consequences that can affect your personal and professional life. If you have suffered a fracture due to the negligent actions of another person, speak to a Los Angeles injury lawyer at Effres & Associate to discuss your case and your rights.

Causes of Fractures

Fractures most often result from one of the following causes:

Fractures can have several degrees of severity. The severity depends on the location of the fracture, and the extent of damage to the bone as well as surrounding tissue. Some fractures can result in complications including blood vessel damage, nerve damage, infections and improper growth of the bone. A compound fracture occurs when the bone breaks through the skin. Sometimes fractures require surgery in order for the bones to heal correctly.

Consequences of Fractures

Some fractures may have more serious financial consequences for a person. For instance, foot, ankle, hip, and knee fractures may result in an impaired ability to stand or walk for meaningful periods of time without pain. A person may find that even after recovery, he is unable to perform many common activities of daily living, like sitting, standing, stooping, bending, jumping, and climbing stairs.

Bone fractures may not only result in a loss of income earning potential, but also a loss of quality of life. For example, an avid sportsman may find that he is unable to play his favorite sport after suffering serious injuries in an accident.

Our Clients' Success Stories

  • "We will recommend you and your firm without reservation."
    Dear Steve, With our case now settled, we wanted to reach out to thank you, Justin and the entire team for your representation of our daughter. It was clear to us that your professionalism, expertise and advocacy of our family’s interests made the entire process run smoothly. We specifically appreciate how well you interacted with our daughter. After we hung up with you on speaker phone leaving the courthouse that last day she said “I like him” in a very childlike, affectionate tone. We also wanted you to know that our decision to settle did not come easily. In the end, we believe the decision was in our daughter’s best interest. We know you worked hard to prepare a strong case and do regret not having the opportunity to see that through. Lastly, on a personal note, we wanted to compliment you on Justin. He is a truly impressive young man; intelligent, polite and very good natured. Just a couple of comments Steve made in the days leading up to our daughter’s trial as we got to know Justin better. To our daughter; “You can tell a lot about a man by seeing how his children behave; Mr. Effres seems like a really good man.” To S: “If you have a son, he (Justin) is what you want him to be like; if you have a daughter, he’s the kind of guy you’d like her to end up with.” Anyway, I’m sure you don’t need to hear it from us, but you and your wife must be very proud of your sons. I hope this doesn’t sound hollow, because it is most definitely not, but please keep in touch and let us know if there is ever anything we can do for you. If we ever come across a friend who is in need of representation, we will recommend you and your firm without reservation. Thanks again and best wishes by S, S, and M

  • "I am very pleased that you kept me informed at each step of this process."
    Dear Mr. Effres: Thank you for all of your work on my behalf regarding the wrongful death of my mother in the parking lot of the Burbank mall. This was a difficult and complex case in that there were several entities that had to be dealt with simultaneously. To make matters worse, none of the parties were inclined to move forward in an effort to reach a resolution. Thanks to your persistence, patience and skillful negotiation a very favorable settlement was subsequently reached with all parties satisfied and in full agreement. I am very pleased that you kept me informed at each step of this process and thankful to have you as my attorney in this matter. Yours truly by L. W.

  • "Best law office to work with!"
    Effres & Effres law office helped me to work through my case after I was rear ended by a young person who drove someone else's car with a minimal insurance coverage. They were great, always available, answering all my questions, giving the best advises, not aggressively but based on an informed decision-making process, which I was very much part of. We got a great result. I would strongly suggest this law office to anyone who was injured in an accident. They are great, responsible and accommodating you, every step on the way.
