OUR LAWYERS SPECIALIZE IN SPINAL CORD INJURIES CASES

The spinal cord is necessary in controlling your sensation, strength, and bodily functions. When the spinal cord becomes injured, the far-reaching damages can be permanent and devastating. Many Americans are living with spinal cord injuries resulting from accidents. The leading cause of spinal cord injuries—auto and motorcycle accidents—occur every day. Slip and fall accidents, recreation/sports injuries, acts of violence or injuries that arise from faulty products or medical procedures are also common causes of spinal cord injuries. These accidents are also often caused by the negligence or carelessness of another person.

Doctors identify spinal cord injuries and classify them as either complete or incomplete; complete means that no nerve signals travel below the point of injury, which leads to paralysis below that point. Incomplete means some signals can pass, so there is some control and sensation.

 Symptoms of spinal cord injuries may include:

  • Partial or complete paralysis
  • Changes in strength, sensation or bodily control
  • Numbness or tingling
  • Sexual dysfunction
  • Breathing difficulty
  • Bowel and/or bladder dysfunction
  • Digestive Issues
  • Pain or intense sensation
  • Muscle spasms

The complications associated with a spinal cord injury are serious and can be life changing, where it requires extensive medical treatment and lifestyle changes.
