Fractured and broken bones are among the most common types of injuries that occur in workplace accidents, road traffic incidents, and slips, trips, or falls. A fracture refers to a partial or complete break in a bone, which can range from minor hairline fractures to severe compound breaks requiring surgical intervention. Such injuries can have a significant impact on an individual's life, affecting their mobility, ability to work, and overall well-being.
If you have suffered a fractured or broken bone due to an accident that was not your fault, you may be entitled to compensation. At Callisto Claims, we specialize in helping individuals secure the financial support they deserve following an injury caused by negligence.
