Knee Injuries

Without a knee that functions the way that it should, your ability to walk and function from day-to-day can be compromised. You may not be able to move around well, if at all. This makes recreational activities impossible, can interfere with your social life, and you may have difficulty working or may not be able to work at all. There is also a lot of pain involved that results in a great deal of discomfort.

At Swor & Gatto, we have helped individuals recover compensation for their injuries. With the help of an experienced personal injury lawyer, you can win the compensation that you need to pay for the financial damage that has been done to you.

Knowledgeable & Skilled Representation

The knee is very complex. However, it provides a person with the support and stability they need for their entire body. This means that an injury to the ligaments, muscle, tendons, cartilage, and bones of the knee can be very devastating. In fact, a knee injury can interfere with many areas of life.

Here are some of the common types of knee injuries:

• Meniscus tear
• ACL injury
• Patella fracture
• PCL injury
• Chondromalacia
• MCL tear

The treatment for such injuries can include patellar tendon repair and reconstruction or complete knee replacement. The treatments themselves can result in a great deal of pain and sometimes more than one treatment is needed in order to solve the problem as much as possible. However, even surgery doesn’t mean the knee is going to recover completely.

Fighting For Your Rights

When your knee injury is the result of someone else’s negligence, it is your right to seek compensation from them. Your personal injury lawyer will fight for that right and will represent you when negotiating with insurance companies or taking the case to trial. We are concerned with your best interests and ensuring that you receive the compensation you need to pay for your medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages that have been done to you. That way you can focus on healing and not the financial damage that has been done to you because of something that was in no way your fault.

To prove that the accident was not your fault in any way, we conduct a thorough investigation. This investigation can include re-creating accident scenes, interviewing witnesses, evaluating accident reports, and more. We use all of the resources and evidence to build a strong case for you so that you can effectively move forward toward a better quality of life.
