Whiplash Injury Compensation

One of the most common type of injury after a car accident is whiplash - a soft tissue injury which occurs in the neck usually after the head has been jolted forwards (hyperflexion) or backwards (hyperextension). You can experience whiplash or neck pain immediately after the accident although in some instances it can take several days for the whiplash symptoms to develop.

The speed of the impact does not have to be high to cause a whiplash injury - whiplash is often experienced after a relative low speed impact. Common symptons of whiplash include:

• Neck stiffness
• Shoulder and back pain
• Headaches and dizziness
