The spinal column runs along the center of the back. It supports the spinal cord, a very sensitive bundle of nerves that connects your brain with every other area of your body. Any damage to the spinal cord can lead to serious injury and, in some cases, paralysis. The outcome of this type of accident can lead to ongoing trauma, limited quality of life, and significant financial loss. Turn to Fisher & Talwar to discuss your case with our Torrance spinal cord injury attorney.

Potential Compensation Owed in a Spinal Cord Injury Case

When a spinal cord injury occurs, victims often face an uncertain future. You may not know if you have a case or the value of it. Our attorneys will look at all the details of your case, including how this injury is impacting your current health and future well-being. We craft a comprehensive, aggressive claim for any losses you have. Some examples of the losses you may incur from a spinal cord injury include:

  • Medical bills: This may include medical care you received at the time of the accident, rehabilitation, medications, surgeries, and special treatment.
  • Ongoing medical support: Many people with spinal cord injuries suffer significant injury for years to come. This may warrant in-home medical care and support.
  • Loss of income: For those with a short-term injury, the loss of wages and benefits during your injury and recovery is recoverable. For some who suffer permanent loss, a full loss of earning capacity is likely.
  • Pain and suffering: Spinal cord injuries can be very painful when they occur and may lead to a deterioration of quality of life moving forward.
  • Emotional trauma: A serious accident like this can cause trauma, leading to the onset of depression and post-traumatic stress disorder.

Many people suffer a loss of quality of life, loss of consortium, and chronic pain. You may not be sure yet how well you will recover. Yet, our Torrance spinal cord injury attorney can work to build your case and compensation claim around all of the losses you do have, as well as the expected long-term losses from your doctor and medical experts.

It is critical to speak to an attorney after your accident. No matter what happened to you, if you believe someone else caused your injuries, set up a consultation to speak to our legal team about your options.

Common Personal Injury Accidents That Result in Spinal Cord Damage

To seek personal injury claims, you must show your accident was due directly to the negligence of another person or company. This means you must show that the party owed you a duty of care, that they breached that duty of care, and that you suffered injuries directly related to the accident they caused. Some of the personal injury claims we handle include those that stem from:

  • Car accidents
  • Truck accidents
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Slip and falls
  • Falls from heights
  • Surgical errors
  • Workplace accidents
  • Premise liability claims
  • Negligent security

With the guidance of a Torrance spinal cord injury attorney, you gain critical information and resources to help you pursue all parties responsible for what happened to you. Let Fisher & Talwar fight for your full recovery from all responsible parties.

How to File a Claim for Your Spinal Cord Injuries

Victims who believe someone else caused their injuries should seek legal action as soon as possible. We encourage you to consider doing the following:

  • Get all of the medical care available to you. Follow through with any treatment or procedures your doctors recommend. Complete the therapy and recovery steps offered to you.
  • Contact our Torrance spinal cord injury lawyer immediately. We encourage you to contact us as soon as you are able. We can begin to gather evidence for your case and build a strong legal strategy to support your recovery.
  • Keep track of all medical expenses, other expenses, lost time at work, and ongoing costs associated with your accident.
  • Keep a log of how this accident is impacting your quality of life, relationships, and mental health.
  • Avoid social media. Instead, let our attorneys guide you in seeking compensation that is maximized in your case by eliminating a common method insurance companies use to lower your claim value.

Our attorneys will file a claim after you reach your fullest level of recovery or when we know what your expected ongoing costs and losses will be. If the insurance company does not treat you fairly, we will seek a lawsuit for you and fight for you in court.
