Las Vegas Psychological Injury Lawyer

How a Las Vegas Psychological Injury Attorney Can Help

Experiencing a traumatic event–whether a vehicle crash, a workplace injury, or an unexpected fall–can seriously impact your mental health. Even if physical injuries were minor, the psychological effects could impair your ability to do your job, care for your family, perform routine daily tasks, and enjoy life.

Psychological injuries are more difficult to prove than bodily harm, underscoring the need for knowledgeable legal counsel. When you work with a Las Vegas personal injury lawyer at Valiente Mott, we will provide evidence demonstrating the extent of your mental trauma with medical records showing the nature and duration of your symptoms. Evidence could also include testimony that corroborates how your psychological injuries have diminished your ability to lead a normal and happy life. We also provide compassionate support and guidance as we strive to build a strong case for compensation.

Common Types of Psychological Trauma

While psychological trauma is often associated with concussions or traumatic brain injury, victims can suffer mental anguish from the unexpected trauma of a car accident or watching the suffering of another. Regardless if the defendant intentionally or inadvertently caused the accident, victims may pursue compensation to account for their emotional and psychological wounds.

Some of the more common psychological injuries cited in civil claims include:

• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
• Depression
• General anxiety
• Mood disorders
• Panic attacks
• Repeated flashbacks and nightmares
• Suicidal thoughts
• Emotional detachment

Victims can sometimes experience insomnia, problems concentrating, mood swings, and loss of appetite. Symptoms can manifest in many ways, leading to social withdrawal and overwhelming sadness.

Research has shown how devastating psychological injuries can be for victims and their loved ones. Contact Valiente Mott to discuss your case if you are looking for dedicated psychological injury lawyers who understand your pain.
