How Compensation Makes Your Life Easier After a Spinal Cord Injury

Spinal cord injuries (SCIs) are often catastrophic, leading to long-term physical disabilities that require ongoing medical treatment. They frequently prevent the victim from returning to their old routine, including their job and social activities with friends and loved ones. For these and other losses, you could be entitled to the following types of damages:
  • Medical expenses
  • Loss of wages
  • Future loss of earning capacity
  • Property damage, if applicable
  • Pain and suffering
  • Partial or total disability
  • Diminished quality of life
  • Loss of consortium (These are the special types of losses a person experiences when their spouse is either catastrophically injured or is a wrongful death victim.) 
Recovering these and similar damages is often a great relief for accident victims. Not only have they held the negligent party responsible, but they no longer have to worry about paying for their medical care or supporting their loved ones. Call Friedman & Simon, L.L.P., for a free case review today to learn more about the benefits of seeking financial damages.

Are Brentwood Spinal Cord Injury Cases Hard to Prove?

Every case is different. Sometimes, we are able to quickly find an abundance of evidence like the following that clearly and convincingly proves the liable party is directly responsible for your suffering:
  • Suffolk County Police Department reports, especially if you were injured in a motor vehicle accident
  • Your medical records and bills
  • Eyewitness testimony from everyone who personally saw the accident or its aftermath
  • Photo or video footage of the accident or its aftermath
  • Expert testimony from accident reconstructionists, medical experts, and life care planners
  • Prior complaints or convictions against the at-fault party
  • Internal records of any company or organization involved in the case
In other cases, the evidence is unclear or contradictory, or there is not much evidence at all. Such cases are often tougher to prove, but they are not impossible. With over 30 years of successful experience, our Brentwood lawyers know how to make each case as strong as possible.

What Causes Spinal Cord Injuries?

Any sort of violent impact to your neck or back could potentially cause an SCI. Motor vehicle accidents are among the most common causes of such injuries because:
  • Occupants might be thrown from the vehicle
  • Debris or heavy objects might strike the spinal column
  • Motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians might bear the full brunt of a collision with a larger, heavier vehicle
Other potential causes of spine injuries include slip and fall accidents, where the victim slips on or trips over a hazard; falls from heights, as might happen at certain types of workplaces; and nursing home abuse, where an already vulnerable individual might not be treated with the care they need and deserve. Each of these types of accidents requires a different legal approach. Friedman & Simon, L.L.P., understands the nuances of each case type and will come up with a personalized legal solution that puts your goals front and center.
