Have You or a Loved One Experienced a Spinal Cord Injury?
Spinal cord injuries are seldom minor. They usually result in significant paralysis such as quadriplegia and paraplegia. However, a few people have spinal cord injuries and are unaware of the significance of the tingling and numbness that they are experiencing. In some cases, such an injury may be misdiagnosed as MS or another neurological disease. At any level of injury, the consequences will be permanent — it is not yet possible to repair the spinal cord. Most people will need treatment and care for the rest of their lives.

Attorneys Developing Strong Cases
We develop strong cases for people with spinal cord injuries by identifying the cause of the injury, documenting its consequences and calculating the costs of recovery and ongoing treatment.

As trial lawyers, we know how to present compelling cases that spell out in detail the effect on the individual's life and career.
Causes of Spinal Cord Injuries
Any accident that causes stress or pressure to the neck or back can cause a spinal cord injury. Our clients have been injured in construction accidents, car accidents, motorcycle accidents and accidents on the job.
