Shoulder Injury Lawyer Serving San Jose, California

Rotator Cuff Tears, Broken and Dislocated Shoulder Injury Attorney in Santa Clara County

Shoulder injuries usually require intensive physical therapy and surgery to treat. The recovery process is difficult, because even simple, day-to-day activities like brushing your teeth can be painful. If you are unable to perform daily activities or work functions as a result of a shoulder injury, contact attorney John J. Garvey, III. He has more than 45 years of personal injury law experience helping people throughout Silicon Valley and the South Bay area.

Common Causes of Shoulder Injuries

At our law firm in San Jose, we are dedicated to recovering compensation for people who have suffered painful shoulder injuries in accidents caused by the negligence and misconduct of others, including:

• Car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, drunk driving accidents, and bicycle accidents
• Slip and fall accidents and other accidents caused by property owner negligence
• Workplace accidents caused by a negligent third party
• Defective products, including malfunctioning sports equipment

We will seek compensation for past and expected future medical costs, lost wages and future earning capacity, and other related damages, ensuring that you will be fully compensated for losses caused by your shoulder injury. Some common shoulder injuries that can occur as a result of an accident include:

• Rotator cuff tear or labral tear
• Shoulder joint tear
• Shoulder impingement
• Fractured or broken shoulder bone

After a shoulder injury, your life can be greatly affected for several weeks or even months or years. Your ability to work may be affected, and you may find it difficult to sleep and even eat. Most shoulder injuries, whether treated surgically or non-surgically, require a period of immobilization followed by rehabilitation. Attorney John Garvey will make sure these issues will be addressed correctly, and he will fight to help you receive compensation that will allow you to make a full recovery.
