Non-Physical Injuries | Personal Injury Lawyer

By Dianne Sawaya
Principle Attorney

The most important, of course, is that you get well and again feel secure and happy with life. Physical pain can lead to depression, and so can the financial stress that follows a serious car crash, motorcycle accident or Colorado semi-truck accident. Not being able to go to work, have sexual relations and participate in fun activities can result in depression and anxiety. In severe cases, car accidents can lead to post-traumatic stress disorder. I’ve had clients who relive the accident in their mind and become so afraid of what happened that they can’t even drive or ride in a car.

If you think you have a psychological injury or illness, get a referral from your doctor for emotional care. The experienced personal injury attorneys at The Law Offices of Dianne Sawaya can also give you names of psychologists. There is absolutely no reason to feel embarrassed or ashamed about seeking care; it may help improve your quality of life.

Which leads me to the second big reason to seek psychological treatment if you need it. Pain and suffering is an important part of what we call non-economic damages that you may suffer in an accident. (The other big part is economic damages – medical bills, special equipment you may need and so on that we can put an exact dollar number on.) If you’ve suffered emotional pain and distress, you deserve to be compensated.

If you’ve been hurt in a Denver car accident, give me a call at (303) 758-4777, send me an email me at DLS@dlslawfirm.com or visit us on the web at www.dlslawfirm.com. Let’s talk about your case. There’s no cost or obligation. We can help you get the money you and your family deserve for the injuries you’ve suffered. And remember: If we take your case, we don’t get paid unless you get paid.
