Spinal cord injuries involve damage to the spinal cord that can affect movement, sensation, and daily living.
In California, medical costs, rehabilitation, and long term care are often substantial, and a claim seeks to recover these and other related losses.
A spinal cord injury occurs when physical trauma disrupts signals between the brain and parts of the body. Even seemingly minor injuries can lead to long term or permanent changes in mobility and function.
Common steps include collecting medical records, establishing fault, calculating current and future damages, and negotiating with insurance companies or pursuing litigation if needed.
This glossary explains terms you may see as your claim moves forward.
Financial compensation for losses such as medical bills, wage loss, and pain and suffering.
