Why Hire The Law Doc Firm for My Spinal Cord Injury Case?
Spinal cord injury claims carry enormous stakes. The lifetime cost of living with a severe spinal cord injury can run into the millions, and insurance companies know it. They’ll look for every opportunity they can to protect their profits and minimize what you recover. You need a legal team on your side that can dismantle those arguments with authority.
Most personal injury firms hire outside medical experts to interpret spinal cord injuries for them. At The Law Doc Firm, that expertise already lives within our practice. If you hire our experienced spinal cord injury attorneys to represent you, we’ll:
- Analyze your medical records and imaging with a neurologist’s trained eye
- Use our lead attorney’s experience as a Certified Life Care Planner to map out your future treatment and support needs
- Calculate the full economic and non-economic impacts of your injury
- Challenge any attempts by the defense to minimize your condition
- Take your case to trial if the insurance company won’t offer what your claim is worth
We’re passionate about our work and are confident we can help you make the most of your claim. Reach out today to get started.
What Is a Spinal Cord Injury?
The spinal cord carries signals between the brain and the body. When it’s damaged, communication between the two can be partially or completely cut off. The effects depend on where along the spine the injury occurs and how severe the damage is.
Spinal cord injuries fall into two main categories:
- Complete injuries result in a total loss of motor function and sensation below the injury site. A person with a complete injury to the cervical spine, for example, may be left with quadriplegia.
- Incomplete injuries mean some signals can still pass through the damaged area. Victims may retain partial movement or sensation, though the degree varies widely from case to case.
Common effects of spinal cord injuries include:
- Paralysis
- Loss of sensation
- Chronic pain
- Difficulty breathing
- Loss of bladder control
- Reduced mobility requiring an assistive device
These injuries are often permanent and require a lifetime of medical care and support. If this has happened to you or a loved one, you deserve as much compensation as may be available under the law.
