Santa Clarita Spinal Cord Injury Lawyer

Spinal cord injuries are usually caused by a quick and sudden impact to the spine or back. The injury can arise from a number of situations, including automobile accidents, gunshot wounds, assaults, trips and falls, and in some cases, medical mistakes.

A spinal cord injury may be hard to detect initially, making thorough medical attention after any accident an important key to full recovery.

Spinal cord damage often creates a displacement of spinal disc elements or causes serious bruising of the spinal cord tissue. Injuries to the region often cause serious nerve damage that can be difficult to detect. At their worst, spinal cord injuries can result in complete paralysis of their victims. We can help victims of accidents recover significant financial awards to cover their medical and related damages.

Since most spinal cord injuries in the United States are the result of motor vehicle accidents, violence, and falls, it is important to retain legal representation in order to pursue any claim for damages. After an accident, many people are taken advantage of because they are unaware of their rights. Insurance companies will often claim to be responsible only for a portion of their legally entitled payments. Other parties try to convince spinal cord injury victims to settle.

Spinal cord injury cases generally take months or years to settle and involve multiple investigations, so it is important to contact a spinal cord injury lawyer as soon after the accident as possible. This ensures that we can review your case in a timely manner and that any claim is filed within the California statute of limitations.
