PTSD: A SERIOUS CONDITION DESERVES SERIOUS COMPENSATION

As a personal injury lawyer in Chicago, I have represented many clients who were diagnosed with Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). These individuals who experienced traumatic events, such as a being in a car accident, received compensation for their injuries related to their PTSD. Although PTSD is not always visible like a broken arm or leg, the injury and pain is very real.

For more information on Post-traumatic Stress Disorder, please review the following online resources and consult a psychologist or a psychiatrist:

PTSD Facts on Google Health
National Institute of Mental Health - PTSD
Mayo Clinic defines PTSD

PTSD is a serious condition and can be very disruptive to your life. Several years back, I obtained a $2.58 million verdict in a case involving two women who were involved in a car accident on the Kennedy Expressway in Chicago. As a result of the serious collision, one of the women died and the other woman suffered from significant post-traumatic stress. If you or a loved one suffer from PTSD as a result of someone else's negligence, please contact an experienced attorney today to answer your questions.
