Q: I was in a car accident and I had to have surgery on my elbow and arm now trying to get my movement back and strength
I am in therapy and the other driver ran a stop sign
A:
There wasn't a question here. If you're wondering about your legal rights or what you should do, you're probably already aware that contacting an Iowa personal injury attorney would be a good first step. Most attorneys offer free initial consults on such cases. Based on your description, it's possible this accident took place some time ago, as you mention surgery. That doesn't generally materialize immediately following most accidents, so the sooner you learn about what steps you need to take to preserve your rights, the better. Good luck
