In personal injury law, ligament injuries commonly occur due to accidents that involve sudden or forceful movements, such as slips and falls or car crashes. These injuries often happen when ligaments are overstretched or torn, typically in high-impact situations where joints are twisted or hyperextended. Ligament injuries can range from mild sprains to severe tears requiring surgery, and they often result in long-term pain, limited mobility, and extensive rehabilitation.
