Broken ribs from a SD truck wreck with a negligent driver? Call us.

Broken ribs are some of the most painful and potentially dangerous injuries you can sustain in a South Dakota truck wreck. Negligent truck drivers, who may be drunk, distracted, or drowsy, can cause catastrophic accidents with enough force to fracture one or more of your ribs.

Broken ribs can make it difficult to breathe, walk around, or even lie down. You may be unable to sleep or work. And if the force of a South Dakota truck accident was great enough to break your ribs, it may have caused other serious or even life-threatening internal damage as well.

Though there is little a doctor can do for broken ribs, apart from giving you painkillers and hoping the injury heals on its own, the costs can still quickly pile up. You have to go to an emergency room, get X-rays, pay for medication, and sit at home without working while you heal.

If your South Dakota truck crash was caused by a negligent driver, you may be eligible to recover damages after the fact. This financial compensation may cover your:

Medical bills
Ongoing care
Missed time at work
Pain and suffering

However, it's not the driver who caused the wreck who will cover your related costs. It is the insurance companies. Their adjusters will do anything they can to leave you with as little compensation as possible, using every trick and tactic in the book to control your case.
