What is the Most Important Thing to do? | St. Louis Car Accident

If you have been in a St. Louis, Missouri, car accident, the experience was no-doubt frightening and perhaps even life-changing. According to Jesse Tanksley, car accident injury attorney at Mann Wyatt Tanksley Injury Attorneys in St. Louis, those who have been in an injury-causing car accident should seek medical care as soon as possible.

  • Whiplash
  • Neck (cervical spine) injuries
  • Back (thoracic and lumbar spine) injuries
  • Orthopedic/joint injuries
  • Concussion/head/brain trauma
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Knee damage
  • Chronic fatigue symptoms (as a result of shock and injury)
Following or in conjunction with seeking medical care, it is also best to contact a reputable car accident injury attorney like Tanksley. The status or outcome of your medical care will determine whether or not a car accident injury case should be pursued. “You need a medical diagnosis before you can determine the best course of legal action,” said Tanksley. “Medical injuries determine the potential value of a case and whether you should settle the case or pursue it further.”
