Emotional distress after a car accident in Massachusetts can be just as disruptive as a physical injury, yet it is often more difficult to demonstrate. A broken bone may appear on an X-ray. A deep cut may leave a visible scar. But anxiety, recurring nightmares, panic attacks, and the fear of getting behind the wheel are not always apparent to other people.
Imagine being involved in a serious collision on a busy Boston roadway. Your physical injuries may gradually heal, but months later, you still become anxious whenever you approach an intersection. You struggle to sleep, avoid driving, and find yourself constantly thinking about the accident.
These experiences can affect your relationships, employment, and everyday life.
If another driver’s negligence caused the collision, you may be entitled to pursue compensation for resulting psychological harm. However, proving emotional distress generally requires more than explaining that the accident was frightening.
