Blunt Abdominal Trauma & BAT Injury Attorneys

Avoid a Costly Mistake. Call Montlick.

Many BAT injuries cause extreme physical pain and suffering. However, the physical pain is only one consequence of a BAT injury. If the injury is permanent, a person may require lifelong medical treatment and monitoring.

A BAT injury may end a person’s ability to work, making it challenging to earn an adequate income to meet life’s daily needs and keep up with bills, and the medical expenses associated with BAT injuries can be staggering. Given that a person’s health and livelihood are on the line following a BAT injury, it is important to consult with an attorney if you believe your BAT injury was caused by another person’s negligent conduct.

After a catastrophic injury, the right legal representation means everything. Don’t make a costly mistake–call Montlick first and let us handle your claim while you focus on your recovery.

Do I Have a Claim or Case?

A blunt abdominal trauma injury is extremely serious. If someone else is responsible for your injury—whether it’s due to negligent, reckless, or intentional actions—you may be entitled to compensation. The legal remedy for these types of injuries is called damages, and is usually in the form of money awarded to the injured party. This money can compensate for things like lost income, medical expenses, property damage, pain and suffering, loss of consortium, and more.

What If My Injury Happened On the Job?

There are many scenarios in which a blunt abdominal trauma injury could occur at the workplace. If that happens, regardless of who is at fault, you may be able to pursue a workers’ compensation claim to receive medical and wage benefits. You may also be able to bring an additional third party personal injury claim against a third party, depending on the situation.

Get Started

Car Crashes Are the #1 Cause of BAT Injury

The National Institutes of Health has recorded that the most reported cause of blunt abdominal trauma is motor vehicle accidents. This can include any collision involving a motor vehicle, including car wrecks, tractor-trailer crashes, as well as bus, motorcycle, ATV, bicycle and pedestrian accidents. 

The faster vehicles are traveling at the time of an accident, the more significant BAT injuries may be.

Slip, trip and fall accidents are the second most common cause of blunt abdominal traumas.

Common Symptoms

BATs are often identified through their symptoms. This may include internal or external bruising, internal or external bleeding, dizziness, low blood pressure, pain, swelling or inflammation, muscle weakness,  nausea or vomiting, and blood in urine or stool, difficulty in bowel or bladder movement, and more.

If you have experienced a blow to the abdomen and have any of these symptoms, seek medical attention immediately. Untreated, blunt abdominal injuries could result in ruptured organs, internal bleeding, intestinal tears, and more. These injuries can even prove fatal.

 

Your Questions Answered

Catastrophic Injury FAQs

Do I really need a lawyer in a spinal cord injury case?
These cases tend to see higher amounts of compensation. As a result, insurance companies will fight tooth and nail to deny just compensation. Taking on these well-resourced behemoths alone is unmanageable. Thankfully, representation can put insurance companies on the back foot.

Another lawyer told me I don’t have a case. What should I do?
We always recommend that if a lawyer rejects your personal injurycase, that you should seek a second opinion about your claim from a trusted personal injury lawyer.

Why are strangers contacting me after my accident?
Case soliciting goes by many names, however, whether you refer to it as barratry, ambulance chasing, capping, steering, or case running–this act is illegal and a sign of an unethical lawyer.

Catastrophic injuries are some of the most serious injuries that can occur in the workplace. These injuries will often happen suddenly and unexpectedly, but their impact continues for a lifetime. In Georgia, workers who suffer catastrophic injuries while on the job may be eligible to receive long-term or lifetime benefits due to the continuing nature of these injuries. However, catastrophic injury sufferers are often faced with denied or minimized claims because the insurer will fight to avoid a lifetime award of damages.
