Spinal Cord Injury Damages

A spinal cord injury results in information, which normally travels from the brain to the spinal cord along the spinal nerves below the level of injury, to be either totally or partially stopped.

The body continues to try to send messages from below the level of injury to the brain known as sensory messages, and the brain will continue to try sending messages back down to the muscles in the body, known as motor messages. These messages however, are blocked by the damage in the spinal cord at the level of injury.

Overwhelming, catastrophic accident cases involving paralysis, or paresis, are complex and can be challenging to deliver justice for the injured families as well as holding the negligent parties responsible for spinal cord damage. The medical issues are often very complex, and the theories of liability, i.e. who is at fault and accountable for these injuries, can be a maze to run through for the inexperienced injury attorney.

SCI Compensation

In spinal cord damage cases, we promptly set out to prove not only who is legally responsible, but also evaluate and assess the full range of damages and human losses that must be fixed or helped, which represents full justice in our civil justice system, including

• Physical pain and suffering
• Mental pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Economic losses
• Medical bills
• Future Medical bills
• Lost Income
• Future Lost Income, Earnings, Benefits
• Life Care Planning – Charting the Client’s Future Interventions and Therapies
• Loss of Enjoyment of Life
• Loss of Consortium (affections, society of spouse and children or parents)

Our goal is to enable as much normalcy as possible in the client’s life, as well as trying to restore some financial security so the client does not have to move forward alone.

If you or your loved one’s spinal cord injury, paralysis, or paresis was caused by another's negligence in a car accident, motorcycle accident, or truck accident, or in a fall, then contact our vehicle accident attorneys to evaluate your accident claim and seek compensation for your harms and losses.
