Spinal Cord Injuries

Legal Advice Regarding Work Accidents And Disability Claims Involving Spinal Cord Injuries

The human neck and back are a complex set of bones, muscles, nerves and tendons that are easily damaged in an accident. Spinal cord injuries may be immediately apparent after an accident, or they may develop slowly over time.

.

Any type of spinal cord injury is extremely traumatic, as well, because the damage can lead to loss of motor function, including partial paralysis, paraplegia or quadriplegia.

This is so because the spinal cord transmits electrical impulses through the nerve endings that control muscle movement in the rest of your body.

If you have suffered any kind of spinal cord injury in a work accident, seek advice from an attorney regarding your legal options as soon as your medical care is under control. You may be able to recover workers’ compensation for your medical bills and lost wages, as well as for medical care you may need in the future if your spinal cord deteriorates further over time. You may also have a claim for Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits.
