> Emotional trauma can have profound impacts on your daily life, and you deserve compensation for those hardships. To take the first step toward getting what you’re owed, work with a Salt Lake City PTSD attorney.

In an aftermath of an accident, you may have developed post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), a severe anxiety disorder. PTSD can interfere with every aspect of your life, from your employment and relationships to activities you once enjoyed.

It’s not a secret that many accidents are caused by the careless acts of another. Frightening experiences like these can cause emotional trauma. And emotional distress can be costly to treat and change your life for years, if not for the rest of your life.

But after your diagnosis, you can recover compensation from those responsible for the accident that caused your PTSD. A Salt Lake City PTSD lawyer from Craig Swapp & Associates will investigate your case and help you understand your options in order to secure maximum compensation for your injuries.

Accidents That Can Trigger PTSD

After an accident, emotional trauma can be more difficult to overcome than many of the physical injuries you might have suffered. PTSD may require ongoing psychological care and prescription medications to help you get through your day-to-day life.

Many traumatic situations and life-threatening events can trigger PTSD. In fact, motor vehicle accidents, which are relatively common, have become a leading cause of PTSD.

Common accidents that can cause PTSD include the following:

Symptoms of PTSD

After you have experienced symptoms of emotional trauma for longer than a month, a doctor may diagnose you with PTSD. The symptoms of this anxiety disorder go deeper than the usual stress most people feel from time to time.

The following are some common symptoms of PTSD:

Your Salt Lake City emotional trauma lawyer will help you gather documentation of your symptoms as you build your claim for compensation.

Recovering Compensation for PTSD

Recovering financial compensation for PTSD may be more difficult than it initially seems—especially without a qualified legal ally on your team.

While you focus on your recovery, a PTSD lawyer from our Salt Lake City firm will build your claim, gather evidence, complete paperwork, deal with insurance companies and negligent parties, and pursue the successful outcome you need.

The damages you may suffer from PTSD can result in lost wages and reduced future earnings, healthcare costs to treat and help you cope with the disorder, and pain and suffering. A successful injury claim will account for all of your damages and make a strong case for why you deserve compensation.

Client Reviews

“I was concerned with all the paperwork”

Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"

My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"

I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"

I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"

My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
