Northeast Philadelphia Broken Bone Injury Attorneys Discuss Types of Bone Fractures

Though the thought of broken bones may conjure an memory of our classmates gleefully asking their friends to sign their cast, there are many different forms of bone fractures that can be more serious and even life threatening The different types of bone injuries can include:

• Transverse fractures – typical bone break where the fracture lays across the bone
• Oblique fractures – the fracture travels across the bone at an angle
• Spiral fractures – the break spirals down through the bone, often from one end to the other
• Compound or “open” fractures – when a broken bone penetrates the skin
• Comminuted fracture – multiple fractures affecting the same bone or bones
• Compression fracture – many traumatic injuries place extreme strain on the spine through compression, sometimes resulting in broken vertebrae. Most common causes are motor vehicle accidents and falls
• Skull and facial fractures – all fractures above the neck are potentially serious. Skull and facial fractures can lead to brain injury, eye injury, and other complications

Do I Have a Strong Personal Injury Claim for my Bone Fractures in Bucks County?

In order to successfully file and conclude a personal injury claim, our Bucks County attorneys will first need to show that your fractured bones and other injuries were the direct result of the negligent or reckless behavior by another party. Each case in unique, and finding fault in your accident is heavily dependent upon the circumstance surrounding your injurious accident.

For example, bone fractures are often the result of motorcycle accidents. This is partially due to the fact that motorcycles do not stand up naturally, and over the course of an accident will often fall on top of the rider, causing further injury. If we are able to show that your motorcycle accident was caused by a negligent driver, you may have a strong personal injury claim. This can include finding that other motorists were drunk, distracted, speeding, driving recklessly, or many other causes.

Another common example of accidents leading to broken bones are slip and fall accidents. Falls are often due to hazardous conditions on a commercial or private property. Property owners are responsible for maintaining safe and secure conditions for any guests, failure to do so may be considered negligence under premises liability statutes. This can range from the classic slippery floor all the way to insufficient security or inadequate lighting.
