If your injuries were made worse by your seat belt in a car accident, you may be able to pursue compensation for your damages. The injury attorneys at Craig Swapp & Associates are ready to help you do that.

A Boise seat belt injury lawyer can help you gather evidence, build your claim, and get what you’re owed.

Delayed Injuries

A common effect those wearing seat belts experience after a crash is a delayed surfacing of pain and soreness they didn’t feel immediately after the crash. The name for this effect is “seat belt syndrome.”

Abrasions from the seat belt across your chest or near your neck could indicate that something is wrong. If the damage was that bad on the surface, internal injuries are very possible. This is also the case for the stomach area. These seemingly minor bruises could lead to injuries ranging from blood clots and seizures to internal bleeding and collapsed lungs.

Because seat belt injuries can be significantly delayed after your car accident, you should always undergo a thorough medical examination—even if your accident was relatively minor. This will also create a medical record that documents your injuries, which your Boise seat belt accident attorney can use to strengthen your claim.

Who You Can Hold Accountable

If you’ve been injured by your seat belt, you might be able to name the manufacturer in your claim for compensation. If the seat belt malfunctioned or simply constricted too forcefully during your crash, that could point to negligence on the part of the manufacturer.

Depending on the circumstances of your accident, you might also be able to name another driver in your claim. If the other party was driving recklessly and caused the crash in which your seat belt injured you, you might be able to pursue compensation from both the other driver and the seat belt manufacturer.

Your Boise seat belt defect attorney will help you determine who is at fault for your injuries and how you should proceed.

Seat Belt Injury Compensation

You might be able to pursue compensation for the following damages common to seat belt accidents:

Current and future medical expenses
Lost wages
Property damage
Pain and suffering
Reduced quality of life

Client Reviews

“I was concerned with all the paperwork”

Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"

My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"

I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"

I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"

My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
