Within Nevada’s Nye County lies Round Mountain, a small community that is best known for its Round Mountain Gold Mine. This open pit gold mine has produced over 10 million ounces of gold, valued at $9.5 billion dollars – and climbing.
Many of the 750 or so residents work in the mine and support the industry by being employed in surrounding service jobs, though many simply revel in the quieter desert
lifestyle that Round Mountain offers.
Given the physical nature of the jobs that are available in Round Mountain, it’s no surprise that injuries on the job can occur.
One of the most common types of injuries from which American workers suffer are shoulder injuries, which the personal injury attorneys at Carter Cullen are experienced in assisting clients with – to ensure full medical coverage and wage loss compensation are received.
The shoulder is more vulnerable to injury than many other parts of the body because it is a ball-in-socket joint which is supported solely by muscles and ligaments. When the surrounding tissue become damaged in some way, then the shoulder joint itself can, as a result, suffer damage.
Although almost anyone can sustain a shoulder injury, the most commonly affected in Nevada is construction and warehouse workers, due to the repetitive physical stress that comes with the work that they perform. However, motor vehicle passengers, cyclists, and those who have a trip-and-fall accident can also sustain a shoulder injury.
The first and most important step is to seek medical attention. Your doctor will be able to assess the extent of your injury, and also record that you are injured and are suffering from pain.
If your injury occurred at work or was the result of another party’s negligence, then enlisting the help of a personal injury lawyer is a must.
The attorneys at Carter Cullen have for many years looked after the personal injury rights of the people of Nevada, including those in Round Mountain.
