Las Vegas Wrist Injury Lawyers

The wrist is a complicated structure in the hand, responsible for allowing rotational movement. It is made up of two forearm bones, eight carpal bones, and a number of ligaments. The wrist is relatively fragile and may be easily damaged, with the most common cause of wrist injuries being from falls.

When most people fall, their instinct is to break their fall with their hands, putting the wrists at great risk. The force of the fall combined with one's body weight puts an intense amount of pressure on the wrist, which can easily cause a number of different injuries. The pain and decreased range of motion from a wrist injury can make even the simplest tasks difficult and can severely diminish one's quality of life.

If you or a loved one has unnecessarily suffered from a wrist injury, contact the Las Vegas wrist injury lawyers at William Palmer & Associates, P.C. at 702-888-2222, and we can evaluate your case.

Types of Wrist Injuries

• Sprains: A sprain occurs when an injury to the wrist is suffered with no bone injuries, and it may or may not include tearing of the ligaments or tendons.
• Strains: When the muscle fibers surrounding the wrist area are torn or ripped.
• Fracture/Break: An actual break or crack that compromises the structure of the bone.
• Repetitive Motion Injury: A type of injury (carpal tunnel syndrome is an example) that causes inflammation resulting from a repetitive movement being performed multiple times.

All of these injuries can be incredibly painful and will likely require medical treatment in order for a person to return to his or her previous quality of life. If you have been subjected to a painful wrist injury because of someone else's negligent actions, you may be in a position to claim damages that can help you cover your medical bills.
