Spinal Cord Injury

Paralysis, herniation & back injury claims

The spinal cord doesn’t heal like other tissue, and the costs of a serious spinal injury compound for the rest of a client’s life. Whether the harm came from a vehicle collision, a fall, or a workplace incident, we assemble the medical and economic proof needed to fund a lifetime of care.

Building a lifetime-of-care case

We partner with physiatrists, life-care planners, and vocational economists to project the true cost of care: surgeries, mobility equipment, home and vehicle modifications, attendant care, and ongoing therapy. These numbers are the difference between a settlement that runs out and one that lasts.

Overlap with brain injury

High-energy crashes and falls often cause both spinal and brain injury at once. Our focus on neurological harm means we screen for TBI in every spinal case, so nothing is missed and no damages are left on the table.

What we handle

  • Complete & incomplete paralysis
  • Paraplegia & quadriplegia
  • Herniated & bulging discs
  • Vertebral fractures
  • Nerve-root & cauda equina injury
  • Chronic back & neck injury

Frequently asked: Spinal Cord Injury

Do I have a case if I can still walk?
Possibly. Incomplete spinal injuries, herniated discs, and nerve damage can cause serious, lasting pain and limitation without full paralysis. These injuries frequently require surgery and long-term treatment that a claim should account for.
Who pays for my future medical care?
In a successful claim, the at-fault party’s insurer is responsible for future care. We use a life-care plan to document those costs so they are part of your recovery rather than an expense you carry alone.
What if the injury happened at work?
You may have both a workers’ compensation claim and a separate third-party injury claim. We identify every source of recovery and coordinate them so you aren’t forced to choose.
