California Spinal Cord Injury Attorneys

Approximately 250,000 Americans are affected by spinal cord injuries. There are a variety of degrees of spinal cord injuries that can affect people in different ways. For some people, the injury is incomplete and they retain some motor and sensory function below the point of injury; for others, the injury is complete and they lose all motor and sensory function below the point of injury.

There are two types of complete spinal cord injuries:

Paraplegia
Paraplegia is a condition that occurs when the point of injury is lower on the spine (below the first thoracic spinal nerve). Such injuries can result in paralysis from the chest down. Paraplegics retain use of their arms and hands. If you or a loved one has become a paraplegic as a result of someone else’s negligence, contact our California paraplegia attorneys for a free and confidential consultation or case review.

Quadriplegia
Quadriplegia is a condition that occurs when the point of injury is higher on the spine (above the first thoracic spinal nerve). Such injuries can result in paralysis to the arms, legs, abdomen and chest. If you or a loved one has become a quadriplegic as a result of someone else’s negligence, contact our California quadriplegic attorneys for a free and confidential consultation or case review.

Spinal cord injuries can have a devastating impact on a person’s life. Not only is a person unable to live as an able-bodied person, but there are tremendous medical expenses that will likely follow an injured person for the rest of his or her life. When someone else is responsible for those injuries—whether through negligence, recklessness or willful intent—victims may be able to recover compensation for their injuries and pain and suffering.

When making the decision about choosing legal representation, it is important to choose a firm that has specific experience representing individuals who have faced similar circumstances to yours. Also, the firm should be just as familiar with the medical issues involved with a spinal cord injury as they are with the legal issues involved in such situations. So, if you have become a paraplegic as a result of an accident that was not your fault, seek out experienced California paraplegic lawyers. Likewise, if you have become a quadriplegic as a result of an accident that was not your fault, seek out experienced California quadriplegic lawyers.
