Car Accident: Back, Neck, and Spinal Injuries
Car Accidents Frequently Cause Spinal Injuries
Since the inception of our firm back in 1994 we have been representing victims of back, neck, and spinal caused by auto accidents. Due to the violent nature of auto accidents serious injuries such as paralysis as the result of a spinal injury are common. If you or someone you love has suffered a spinal injury due to the negligence of another, you may well have a strong claim to compensation.
Spinal Injuries and Long Term Care
Lifelong medical treatment and rehabilitation for a spinal cord injury can cost millions of dollars. Spinal cord injuries are life changing, and victims may require around-the-clock medical care for the rest of their lives. The expense of paying for hospitalizations, long-term care, living modifications due to being in a wheelchair, prescriptions, surgeries and lost earnings, and even lost insurance benefits due to not being able to return to work, can be financially devastating.
According to University of Alabama National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center, only 52% of spinal cord injury victims are covered by private health insurance at the time of an injury.
Because of the expenses associated for caring for an injury victim, getting full and fair compensation from whoever is responsible for an accident is essential. Monetary damages recovered for a spinal cord injury can include compensation for all medical care, hospitalization costs, rehabilitation, lost earnings, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, and other accident
Do You Have a Strong Case?
Unfortunately, there is no quick and easy blueprint to use to determine whether or not you have a strong case. However, the answers to these questions can help us begin to determine if you may be able to receive compensation for your injury:
Liability: Who is to blame for the accident? Is liability clear cut or are there other circumstances that could make proving liability difficult?
Coverage: Does the responsible party have insurance? If so, what type of policy do they have? How much money is out there to be pursued?
Damages: What damages were inflicted as the result of the accident? The idea here is simple; in cases where damages are great, the potential amount to be recovered is great as well.
