Foot, Knee, and Ankle Injury Lawyer in Milwaukee

As reported in a study published on Pub Med, the relative importance of foot and ankle injuries has increased in recent years. The study notes that automobile accident foot and ankle injuries occur at a rate of 24.7 for every 1,000 vehicle occupant injuries, and ankle sprains and fractures each occur at a rate of 3.7 for every 1,000 crash injuries.

When knees, feet, and ankles absorb the force of impact in automobile collisions or get crushed or twisted in a crash, painful and debilitating injuries can result.
