Understanding Joint Injury Cases
Common Causes
- Dashboard impact injuring knees in car accidents
- Shoulder injuries from seatbelt forces and bracing on impact
- Hip fractures and dislocations from side impact collisions
- Falls causing rotator cuff tears and meniscus damage
- Twisting injuries to ankles and knees on uneven surfaces
- Workplace accidents involving heavy lifting or repetitive motion
Typical Injuries
- Torn ACL, MCL, or meniscus in the knee
- Rotator cuff tears requiring surgical repair
- Hip labral tears and hip fractures
- Dislocated shoulders and separated AC joints
- Ankle ligament tears and fractures
- Post traumatic arthritis developing in damaged joints
Establishing Liability
Joint injury cases benefit from MRI imaging that clearly shows tears, fractures, or structural damage caused by the accident. Orthopedic surgeon testimony connecting the joint damage to the specific mechanism of injury is important for establishing causation. Because joint injuries often lead to early onset arthritis and eventual joint replacement surgery, future medical expense claims can add significant value to the case.
Relevant Texas Law
Texas law allows recovery of future medical expenses for anticipated joint replacement surgeries that orthopedic experts testify will become necessary due to the accident. Under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code, damages for physical impairment cover the loss of joint function and mobility that affects daily activities. The collateral source rule under Section 41.0105 governs which medical expenses can be presented to the jury.
