A spinal cord injury case involves damage to the spinal cord that affects movement or sensation. This can result from a car crash, a fall, or a medical error. The impact on daily life, treatment needs, and future care are all considered when evaluating a claim.
In California, most personal injury claims must be filed within two years of the injury. There are exceptions for minors and certain claim types, so early guidance helps protect your rights.
Compensation may cover medical bills, rehabilitation, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Depending on the case, future care costs and long-term needs are also included in the claim.
Many spinal cord injury cases are handled on a contingency basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront. Fees are paid from a portion of the settlement or award if you win.
Bring any medical records, accident reports, bills, and a list of damages and expenses. Photos and witness information can also help.
Some cases settle outside of court, while others require a trial to pursue fair compensation. Our team prepares for all possibilities.
Pain and suffering are assessed based on injury severity, impact on daily life, and medical testimony. The amount is determined during negotiations or trial as part of the overall damages.
Proving negligence involves showing duty of care, breach of that duty, causation, and damages. Medical records, accident reports, and witness statements are key pieces of evidence.
