Types of Spinal Cord Injuries

Spinal cord injuries can be placed into two broad categories: complete and incomplete.  In complete spinal cord injuries, the victim has no function below the site of the injury (often referred to as the “neurological level”).  In incomplete injuries, victims may have some sensation or movement below the injury site.  Both complete and incomplete injuries can occur in paraplegia and quadriplegia.

Injury to the spinal cord can lead to the loss of motor function and the ability to feel pain, temperature, and surface touch.  Complete or partial paralysis is a common lasting symptom of spinal cord injury.  Our lawyers understand the emotional and financial hardships your family is facing.  That’s why we will commit ourselves to aggressively pursuing your case and helping you to obtain compensation for your injuries, lost wages, medical bills, and pain and suffering.  Let our attorneys give you the satisfaction of knowing that the party or parties responsible for your loved one’s life-changing injury are held accountable for their careless conduct.  

Effects of Spinal Cord Injuries

Victims of both complete and incomplete spinal cord injuries face the possibility of a lifetime of rehabilitation, medical care, and surgery, not to mention financial and emotional strain.  Many victims lose their jobs because they are never able to return to work, and the divorce rate tends to be higher in households in which one spouse becomes injured and unable to fully recover during the course of the marriage.  The financial burdens placed on those caring for someone with a spinal cord injury are immediately apparent; the cost of hospital stays, physical therapists, insurance co-pays, and other unexpected bills can be overwhelming.
