How a Spinal Cord Injury Can Negatively Affect Your Life
Many different kinds of accidents can cause a spinal injury including:
- Motor vehicle and motorcycle accidents
- Construction site accidents
- Trip and fall or slip and fall accidents
- Falls on the stairs and other premises cases
- Nursing home negligence
- Recreational accidents
- Roadway defect cases
- Non-motorized vehicles such as bicycles, skateboards, and scooter accidents
- Defective products
- Medical malpractice
A spinal injury can lead to lifelong hardship that has a global impact on your ability to function in your day to day routine and decrease your ability to enjoy life. While there is a wide variety of types of spine injuries ranging from mild to catastrophic, some of the most common effects of a spinal injury can result in paralysis or other nerve damage, chronic pain, and a decreased ability to move. These injuries can prevent you from working and require ongoing medical care and rehabilitation. Spine injuries often result in significant compensation for pain and suffering and economic damages. Protect your rights by calling our lawyers today. You may be entitled to substantial financial compensation.
