Unlikely to return to work after rear-end accident Â
Our client, a wife, and mother of one were stopped at a stop light when a vehicle slammed into the rear of her vehicle.  She was treated at the hospital for a concussion and pain to her knee and back.   After receiving physical therapy for nearly three months, she has since had to undergo two knee surgeries and will likely need another surgery to repair the damage to her knee. She has been told that it is unlikely that she will be able to return to her former job which required lifting and bending.
