What You Need To Know About Personal Injury
The most important issue in any personal injury case is obtaining the medical care and therapy you need to recover your health. While we understand that financial compensation can never make up for the stress and discomfort of a chronic injury, it can make the cost of the injury less stressful to handle and allow you to focus on your recovery.
Personal Injury Claims We Cover
- Birth Injuries
- Paralysis
- Brain Injuries
- Back & Neck Injuries
Paralysis
Paralysis is usually caused by nerve damage and is often the result of a spinal cord injury. Paralysis can be partial or complete, occurring on one of both sides of the body. The higher on your spinal cord the injury occurs, the more motor and sensory functions are affected. Common terms regarding paralysis are quadriplegia and paraplegia. Quadriplegia means that your arms, hands, trunk and legs are affected. Paraplegia means that your legs and part or all of your trunk is affected. While there is currently no way to reverse spinal cord damage, new treatments are being tested that could lead to nerve cell regeneration or improved function of nerve cells.
Anyone who suffers from paralysis is likely to need home modifications, wheelchairs, adaptive equipment for motor vehicles, personal care attendants, vocational retraining and psychological counseling. They will also need resources to pay for new spinal injury treatments as they become available, which can be expensive.
Back / Neck Injuries
A back or neck injury can lead to chronic pain that can affect your ability to work and lead a life you enjoy. To get the financial compensation you deserve, you need the assistance of an experienced attorney.
Many people who suffer back and neck injuries discontinue their medical treatment because they don’t feel they are getting better. However, if you discontinue treatment, the insurance company may assume that you are no longer injured. It’s important to follow up on medical treatment until you feel better in order to recover your health and document your injuries for the insurance company so they cover your treatment until you are fully healed.
