The Importance of Seeking Compensation

Pursuing compensation after a spinal cord injury is crucial for several reasons. First, it alleviates the financial burden arising from intensive medical care, rehabilitation, and ongoing treatment costs, which can escalate, leaving victims and their families overwhelmed by debt. Second, compensation provides essential support for adapting to life changes, such as home modifications, personal care assistance, and acquiring assistive devices. Our personal injury lawyers will hold responsible parties accountable for their actions, ensuring victims achieve justice for their suffering. In addition, financial support helps individuals focus on their recovery and rehabilitation rather than the stress of financial obligations, impacting their overall well-beinpositivelyay.

Examples of the Types of Spinal Cord Injuries

Spinal cord injuries can vary in severity and type, each presenting unique challenges for victims. Common types of spinal cord injuries include the following.

Complete Injury

This results in a total loss of sensation and muscle function below the injury site.

Incomplete Injury

Individuals experience some preserved function or sensation below the injury level, indicating partial damage.

Tetraplegia (Quadriplegia)

This injury occurs due to damage to the cervical spine, resulting in loss of sensation and motor function in all four limbs. The degree of paralysis varies based on the location and severity of the injury. It can affect body functions such as breathing, bladder control, and the ability to perform activities. A victim of tetraplegia requires constant assistance and, in some cases, must live in a care facility.

Paraplegia

This condition impacts the lower limbs and lower body from injuries to the thoracic, lumbar, or sacral spine. While some people with paraplegia can live alone, their lives are affected to a significant degree.

Central Cord Syndrome

This syndrome causes varying degrees of weakness in the arms and hands while allowing the legs to retain strength.

Brown-Séquard Syndrome

This syndrome results from damage to one side of the spinal cord, causing weakness on one side and loss of sensitivity on the other.

When to Contact a Houston Spinal Cord Injury Lawyer

If you or a loved one has suffered a spinal cord injury due to someone else's negligence, reaching out to a Houston spinal cord injury lawyer is essential.

Seeking legal assistance helps preserve crucial evidence, meet critical deadlines, and protect your rights throughout the claims process. An experienced attorney evaluates the circumstances of the accident, determines liability, and guides you in gathering the necessary documentation to support your case. They also offer insights into the potential compensation for current and future needs. Acting without delay can impact your claim's outcome and your ability to focus on healing and recovery.
