Abdominal trauma, also called Blunt Abdominal Trauma, or BAT, occurs when a person’s abdomen collides with another object, leading to the compression of the abdomen and surrounding organs (i.e., the pancreas, kidneys, stomach, intestines, spleen, liver, etc.) and excessive pressure exerted on the abdominal wall. This type of injury most typically arises in car accidents, especially those involving high speeds, where the force of the crash causes the body to propel sideways or forward, either into a seatbelt, the steering wheel, dashboard, or the frame of the actual vehicle. BAT is serious and can be fatal if not treated immediately following an automobile collision. In fact, BAT, if left untreated, is a leading cause of death to accident victims of all ages.

Although car accidents are the primary cause of BAT, additional common causes include, without limitation, the following:

  • Motorcycle crashes
  • Collisions involving recreational vehicles such as ATVs, boats, jet skis, etc.
  • Bicycle accidents
  • Pedestrian-related accidents
  • Slip and falls
  • Abuse or battery

I had the pleasure of working with the incredible Attorney Mumpower after a serious car accident, and she made the entire process so much easier than I ever expected. From start to finish, she was extremely professional, thorough, and supportive. She, along with Jaron, were both pleasant to work with and walked me through every step of the process. Thanks to their hard work and dedication, I received the settlement I deserved. I’m truly grateful for their expertise and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal assistance!

Someone pulled out in front of me in may of this year totaling my car and deploying my airbags , This is my first time ever being in a situation like this I was scared & overwhelmed I didn’t even know where to start Sara Root and her legal assistant Christopher Gladys went above and beyond to make things understandable and easy they send u to the best specialist and they take care of you as well , they go ABOVE AND BEYOND TO GET YOU THE MOST OF YOUR CASE THAT THEY CAN !!! They will never not fight for you and they always keep you updated as they go, hopefully I’ll never have to go through this again but if I ever do I would not hesitate to use them again and I will always refer them to anyone looking for an accident attorney!
Athens Edwards
I was in a not at fault, roll over accident in December of last year. I felt early on that their Insurance company was not going to be cooperative in settling this claim fairly. I contacted Alyssa and that very day put her on retainer. She and her team immediately began handling the case and within the week their insurance company representative completely changed their tone and started giving me a fair shake. The case settled and I am very satisfied with its outcome. I paid for a car policy for 30 years and never had a claim and when I needed them, they wanted to play games. All I wanted was a fair treatment. Alyssa and her team made sure that happened! Alyssa, thank you so much for your help.
Paul Cox
In March I was in an car accident with my infant son. I immediately reached out to Montlick and Associates. Attorney Nives Juric was the attorney I had the pleasure of working with. She was kind, listened to my concerns, and how I felt after the accident. She frequently checked on me and kept me updated/informed during the entire process/negotioation period. Her and her assistant Krystal make an excellent team. Krystal updated me, questioned me about all the ins and outs of the accident, checked on my son, and also kept me informed. They got me in contact with their preferred doctors to get me looked at and for me to receive physical therapy.Almost exactly 7 months after the accident I received my settlement check. I am quite happy with the amount that I received.I would definitely recommend Attorney Nives Juric. She got me what I deserved, and even more!
Jordan Feaster
My attorney (Nives R. Juric) and her assistant (Krystal Rivers) were very professional, attentive and did their due diligence to see that this case was done correctly.I was involved in a hit and run accident that could have gone nowhere. However, between the police and Nives - this fellow was located after he left the scene and found to be at fault.I can truly say that if I tried to solve this case on my own, the case would have gone nowhere but it was Nives and Krystal that did all the work and kept on pushing for a resolution. Can’t thank them enough!

I was involved in a hit and run accident. I was so worried about the outcome. Montlick attorneys reassured me that I would be taken care of and they did just that. I was updated on my claim and they explained every step of the way. Friends provided their attorneys numbers to me, but I sure am glad I picked Montlick. They were amazing, provided reassurance and delivered excellent service. Attorney Mora and his staff were very professional, courteous and knowledgeable. Thank you !!!

Atlanta, Georgia Blunt Abdominal Trauma Injury Attorneys

The Signs and Symptoms of BAT

The signs and symptoms of BAT vary, ranging from minor bruising to serious internal bleeding. Generally speaking, people injured in a motor vehicle collision might present with a “seat belt sign” which is bruising on the abdomen along the site of the lap belt. Other signs and symptoms include, without limitation, the following:

  • Low blood pressure
  • Lightheadedness or dizziness
  • Syncope (fainting)
  • Pain, pressure, or fullness in the abdomen or surrounding areas
  • Nausea and/or vomiting
  • Abdominal bloating
  • Difficulty passing stool
  • Blood in the urine or stool
  • Muscle weakness

When to Seek Treatment

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, you should seek medical attention immediately, as a lack of treatment can result in, among others:

  • Ruptured organs, most often the spleen
  • Intestinal tears or fissures
  • Liver damage
  • Damage to the pancreas
  • Injury to major blood vessels
  • Damage to reproductive organs
  • Internal hemorrhaging
  • Kidney damage
  • Death

Your abdomen serves an essential purpose to your functionality. Providing structure for the spine and protecting vital internal organs, the effects of blunt abdominal trauma may be far-reaching. The abdomen protects vital organs from injuries that are potentially life-threatening.  When abdominal injuries happen, vital organs may not be fully protected, exposing an injured person to multiple medical problems. When a person sustains a BAT injury, their stomach, kidneys, pancreas, spleen, lower lungs, and liver are vulnerable to permanent damage.  If the damage is bad enough, a person may have internal bleeding and could be at risk of death.

If you or a loved one is injured in any sort of accident involving abdominal trauma, contact the Atlanta personal injury attorneys at Montlick.

If you have suffered severe abdominal injuries in Atlanta or been affected by blunt force trauma, call 1-866-495-3549 or dial #WIN® (#946) from your mobile phone.

Frequently Asked Questions

All Your Questions, Answered

What Are Georgia Deadlines for Filing Car Accident Insurance Claims & Lawsuits?
For personal injury claims resulting from a car accident, the statute of limitations in Georgia is usually two years from the date of the accident. This means you would have two years to file a lawsuit against the responsible party/parties. Failure to file within this time frame could result in the loss of your right to seek compensation for your injuries. The statutes of limitations can vary depending on the jurisdiction of the accident.
