- The most severe injuries are neck and spinal cord injuries. Every year thousands are paralyzed, partially or fully paralyzed and suffer excruciating pain for the rest of their lives. Paralysis can lead to severe medical complications, high-level care, and even permanent paralysis.
- Sometimes, these accidents happen because of the victim’s negligence. A large proportion of spinal cord or neck injuries that result from accidents are caused by the negligence or recklessness of others. If this is the case, victims should seek out compensation from a lawyer for spinal cord and neck injuries.
All Spinal Cord Injury and Neck Injury Cases are centered on proving negligence
An attorney representing a victim seeking damages must prove that the defendant was negligent and that they directly contributed to the victim’s injuries. If a drunk driver crashes into another vehicle, inflicting a neck or spinal injury, it is an easy case of negligence. Other cases, however, are more complicated and require more diligence and evidence gathering, as well as expert witnesses, to prove their case.
