Car accidents are a common occurrence on the streets and highways in New York City and the surrounding areas. Driver distractions (such as cell phones), reckless driving, and driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol are just a few of the factors that can lead to an auto accident. In some cases, car wrecks cause serious injuries, including the following:

• Back injuries
• Whiplash
• Head trauma or traumatic brain injury
• Loss of limbs

Auto injuries involving the neck, spine, and brain can be particularly debilitating and may lead to paralysis or permanent disabilities.
