Possible Injuries from Automatic Doors

Every automatic door has specific warnings, specified machinery, and required maintenance. When a component malfunctions, injuries can happen. Some common ways injuries can happen from automatic doors malfunctioning include:

An overhead crush can happen when a door goes up and down, putting pressure and holding someone down
Blunt force trauma when a door hits a person unexpectedly
Lacerations can happen when glass breaks
Pinch point injuries happened when a person’s limb or digit gets in between doors or a small space

These accidents can cause more specific types of injuries that range in severity, impacting your day-to-day functioning.

Lacerations

Blunt force trauma can lead to lacerations or cuts as a result of glass breaking. This injury may need stitches and cause bruising.

Broken Bones, Sprains, or Tears

These injuries often have similar symptoms and can be hard to diagnose. Trauma to muscles, ligaments, and bones can cause varying complications.

Neck and Back Injuries

Neck and back injuries can impact your mobility, affecting how you function normally.

Spinal Cord Injury

Damage to any part of the spinal cord or nerves can create permanent changes in strength, sensation, and other body functions below the site of the injury. Spinal cord injuries can affect every aspect of your life.

Head Injuries

Head injuries can range from concussions to traumatic brain injuries. Depending on how the scalp, skull, brain, and underlying tissue and blood vessels in the head have been affected by the trauma endured during the accident can determine how severe your head injury is.

The severity of your injuries impacts the amount of recoverable compensation because of your medical needs and the pain you have suffered and will continue to suffer. It is important to seek medical attention directly after the accident regardless of how you are feeling. An expert needs to assess your injuries to help develop a course of treatment so you can begin to recover.

Client Testimonials

These guys are amazing. Helped me throughout the process. Always there when I need help. Inititailly called a law firm (the one that has lots of ads on the radio), but they declined my case. Van Law Firm accepted my case without a second thought! Kudos to Daniel, my case manager, and Amanda who expedited my payment process. Highly recommended.

Milby Mags

Got in an accident at the beginning of the year and they have been awesome, especially with it being my first accident and me being like this. They have been very communicated, stayed in contact with me the whole time, giving me updates when there were any and even when there weren’t and answered any question I had. I would recommend them to anyone. Everyone I have talked to there has been very friendly. I would give them a 10 out of 10.

Ethan Gullet

They made sure that my insurance company covered what I paid for them to which included the gap for my car that was totaled. My medical costs were taken care of and reduced substantially so I was able to get more on my settlement. My case manager, Will Garcia, was always helpful in assisting me and answering any questions I had. They really did an amazing job with my case. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of this type of legal help. Most lawyers do not help you with the recovery of the car and rental etc. They are amazing.
