Nev was admitted to the intensive care unit, where he battled with nerve injuries. However, he shared videos and pictures from his hospital bed, assuring his fans that he was recovering fast and not paralyzed, as some feared.

In a short video he shared, some medical staff helped him walk around just a few days after surgery. So, he seems to be doing just fine.

Possible remedies for his injuries

It isn’t clear what happened during his accident, but if he was indeed hit by a truck, he can sue and get compensated for his injuries. A Chicago truck accident attorney often handles such cases. But what does it entail?

For one, any accident caused by a truck, whether it is a semi or a tractor, gives rise to a claim. Injuries such as burns, broken ribs and necks, like in the case of Nev, are common with truck accidents. These injuries can impact one’s quality of life in so many ways. Dealing with the pain alone can be frustrating.

Some victims end up becoming addicted to pain medications to be able to cope with the pain. One popular example is actor Ashley Hamilton, who was involved in a bike accident in 1992. The actor was in such bad shape that he needed up to 300 stitches on his head. The pain was debilitating, and to cope, he turned to pain meds. At some point, he almost overdosed on them.

Attorneys who specialize in truck accidents gather evidence by speaking with witnesses and identifying the parties to the suit. They also bring certified experts to back up the claim on how the accident occurred. For the case to be successful, they need all the evidence they can lay their hands on, which may include videos and pictures of the scene. This also includes CCTV angles of the accident. A good example of this is George Clooney’s accident.

The actor was riding a bike in Italy while shooting a movie. He was then hit head-on by a driver in a Mercedes who didn't respect the right of way. Clooney was thrown 20 feet in the air after the hit, and the motorcycle was completely damaged. He suffered bruises to his arm and legs and had to get an MRI.

Why a lawsuit is necessary

If you are involved in an accident, you may not be able to work for an extended period. This means you won't be paid. You also lose a valuable property in the process. A lawsuit can help cover the cost of your treatment and the loss of employment you may incur. Some injuries can be lifelong, preventing you from working. A suit helps you get enough compensation to cover your living expenses during this time.
