Whiplash & soft tissue
Real injuries that insurers love to downplay.
What to do
- See a doctor promptly; delays look like you weren’t hurt
- Keep a pain journal
- Photograph bruising from seatbelts and airbags
Why records matter
Insurers look for three things: a prompt visit, consistent complaints and a clear doctor’s opinion that the crash caused the injury. Gaps or inconsistencies become arguments to pay less.
Medical note: this is general information, not medical advice. Follow your doctors.
What the claim can include
- Past and future medical expenses
- Lost income
- Pain, suffering and limits on daily life
