While knee injuries and other injuries to the legs are often not fatal, they can be catastrophic. We use our legs every day and count on them to get us from place-to-place. When a knee is injured in a car crash, slip and fall, an accident on the job, or any other type of accident—it is a game changer for the accident victim.

The knee is the largest joint in our body, and when it is injured, it makes it tough for anyone to walk, sit, stand, or run. This type of injury is not only debilitating, but it is also one of the most painful injuries someone can suffer. Furthermore, the impact of these injuries can last a lifetime.

Types of Knee Injuries

Car accident victims frequently report knee injuries. The injury is most often caused by the impact with the dashboard, steering wheel or other hard surfaces within the car. Often the kneecap becomes dislocated or fractured in a crash, or it may be twisted or jolted in a way that causes tears and other damage.

While many injuries are immediately visible, knee injuries can often take days, weeks or even months before they present any symptoms. That is why it is critical to contact our knowledgeable personal injury attorneys at Georgelis, Larsen & Sabatino Injury Law Firm, P.C. immediately after an accident. We offer free consultations and we will go through every point on our checklist to ensure you are not missing anything—or putting yourself at a disadvantage down the road for compensation. The majority of auto accident knee injuries include:

• Ligament Injuries
  • Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL)
  • Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)
  • Medial collateral ligament (MCL)
• Meniscus Injuries
• Fractures
