Trust Guss for Your Spinal Injury Claim
At Stewart J. Guss Injury Lawyers, our team of experienced spinal cord injury attorneys helps victims navigate the complexities of the legal process. We are dedicated to securing the compensation victims deserve, including coverage for medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost income, pain and suffering, and long-term support. With our compassionate assistance and legal expertise, victims can focus on their treatment and recovery while we handle the intricacies of their claims.
The Importance of Seeking Compensation
Pursuing compensation after a spinal cord injury is critical for several reasons. First, it helps alleviate the financial burden of extensive medical care, rehabilitation, and ongoing treatment costs, which can quickly accumulate and overwhelm victims and their families with debt. Second, compensation provides vital support for adapting to life changes, including home modifications, personal care assistance, and acquiring assistive devices. Our personal injury lawyers work to hold responsible parties accountable, ensuring victims receive justice for their suffering. Additionally, financial support allows individuals to focus on recovery and rehabilitation, reducing the stress of financial obligations and positively impacting their overall well-being.

Examples of the Types
of Spinal Cord Injuries
Spinal cord injuries differ widely in their severity and classification, each posing unique obstacles for those affected. The primary types of spinal cord injuries include the following:
Complete Injury
This leads to a complete loss of sensation and muscle function below the site of the injury.
Incomplete Injury
Individuals retain some degree of function or sensation below the injury site, reflecting incomplete damage to the spinal cord.
Tetraplegia (Quadriplegia)
Tetraplegia results from damage to the cervical spine, causing loss of sensation and motor function in all four limbs. The extent of paralysis depends on the injury’s location and severity, often affecting critical body functions such as breathing, bladder control, and the ability to perform daily activities. Individuals with tetraplegia typically require ongoing assistance and, in some cases, may need to reside in a care facility.
Paraplegia
Paraplegia affects the lower limbs and lower body, resulting from injuries to the thoracic, lumbar, or sacral spine. While some individuals with paraplegia may live independently, the condition significantly impacts their daily lives.
Central Cord Syndrome
Central cord syndrome results in varying degrees of weakness in the arms and hands, while leg strength typically remains intact.
Brown-Séquard Syndrome
This condition occurs when one side of the spinal cord is injured, typically leading to muscle weakness on the same side as the damage and reduced sensation on the opposite side of the body.
When to Contact a Spinal Cord Injury Lawyer
If you or a loved one has experienced a spinal cord injury caused by someone else’s negligence, it’s important to consult a spinal cord injury lawyer as soon as possible. Legal representation ensures that vital evidence is preserved, deadlines are met, and your rights are protected throughout the claims process. A knowledgeable attorney will assess the details of your case, identify responsible parties, and help gather the necessary documentation to build a strong claim. They can also provide guidance on the compensation you may be entitled to for both immediate and long-term needs. Prompt action can make a significant difference in the success of your case and your ability to focus on recovery.
