Spine Injury Treatments & Recovery
Spine injuries can be heartbreaking for both the victim and their family - and often result in a devastating lifelong impact. They can result in a life-altering disability, loss of work, mobility problems, and other painful complications.
Even though modern medicine continues to develop new spine injury treatment options, doctors are still largely unable to reverse damage to the spinal cord.
If the damage to the nerves is minimal, a partial recovery is possible -- restoring the ability to walk with assistance and recover some basic motor functions. Our spine injury lawyers have unique experience with the health implications and understand how to litigate these complex cases. We know how critical recovering full compensation is for our clients.
Spine injury symptoms can include:
- Pressure that feels as if it is building in the back, head, or neck
- Excruciating back pain
- Dizziness
- Sudden loss of consciousness
- Loss of feeling in extremities
- Loss of bladder or bowel control
- Extreme clumsiness or weakness, or loss of movement in any body part
- Difficulty breathing
- Torso or neck positioned unnaturally
The vast majority of spinal injuries cause permanent disability and in result in complete immobility for life. A successful personal injury lawsuit can help relieve the financial burdens faced for proper treatment and secure the money your family needs.
The spinal column itself is made up of 31 different bones, known as vertebrae. These are broken down into 5 regions of bones, from top to bottom as follows: cervical vertebrae (7), thoracic vertebrae (12), lumbar vertebrae (5), sacral vertebrae (5), and fused coccygeal vertebrae (2).
A total loss of sensation below the point of the injured vertebrae (paralysis) is typically suffered.
Cervical spine injury symptoms can include full quadriplegia, weakness in the arms and legs, and paralysis of lower or upper limbs.
Lumbar spine injuries can result in a paralysis of the lower extremities (paraplegia) and with injuries higher on the spinal column a paralysis of both the arms and legs can occur (quadriplegia or tetraplegia) depending on the extent of damage.
When the injury was caused by the negligence of another party, it only compounds the injustice.
The U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), estimates that between 12,000 and 20,000 new cases of spinal column injuries occur each year.
Filing a spinal cord lawsuit claim against the party that caused your injury can't turn back time and reverse what happened, but it can help hold those responsible accountable and provide financial relief.
Discuss your case with our spinal cord injury attorney to review your case and compensation options under the law. Your lawyer can help ensure your health needs aren't ignored.
The spinal cord resides in the spinal column, and is a collection of nerves that extends downward from the brain and branching out peripherally as it travels downward.
Spinal stenosis occurs when these nerves leave the spinal cord because of pressure caused by a narrowing of the spinal column.
These nerves are responsible for transmitting information and impulses from the brain to every part of the body. When the spinal column is damaged there is always a chance that the nerves can also be affected, causing temporary or permanent neurological damage.
Our attorneys have a unique history of successfully litigating on behalf of clients who have suffered spinal stenosis and cord injuries. We have a proven record helping victims of back injuries, and aren't afraid to go to trial if necessary to secure the compensation you deserve.

Injury to the spinal cord can affect any part of the body from the musculoskeletal to the respiratory, urinary, and even the gastrointestinal system.

The costs for care and proper treatment can be tremendous, you deserve compensation commensurate.
Back injuries are among the most difficult types of injuries for victims and their families to deal with.
