The spinal cord is very susceptible to serious injuries. The spinal cord is a long, thin, tube of nerves, tissue and cells that extends from the brain, down the neck to the low back. A spinal cord injury occurs when there is damage to the spinal cord from trauma, loss of its normal blood supply, or compression from tumor or infection. If you or someone you care about sustained a spinal cord injury in any car or other accident, please seek immediate medical care and contact us now for a FREE consultation.

Unlike some other parts of your body, the spinal cord does not have the ability to repair itself if it is damaged. Thus, immediate medical care is essential. There are approximately 10,000 new cases of spinal cord injury each year in the United States. For some reason they are most common in white males. Specifically, 80% of spinal cord injuries occur in males, and 2/3 occur in whites. Most injuries occur in patients 16–30 years of age.

The most common cause of spinal cord injury is trauma. Nearly half of the injuries are caused by motor vehicle accidents including car accidents, motorcycle accidents and truck collisions. Other types of trauma include the following:

• Falls from heights;
• Violence including assault and battery; and
• Sporting injuries, such as while playing football, soccer and basketball

The symptoms of spinal cord injury depend on where the spinal cord is injured and whether or not the injury is complete or incomplete. In incomplete injuries, patients have some remaining function of their bodies below the level of injury, while in complete injuries they have no function below the level of injury.

Therefore, if you are suffering from any of these symptoms as a result of injury it is important to take immediate action:

• Weakness or complete loss of muscle function
• Loss of sensation in the body below the level of injury
• Loss of control of the bowels and bladder
• Loss of normal sexual function
• Difficulty breathing, coughing or clearing secretions from your lungs
• Pain or an intense stinging sensation caused by damage to the nerve fibers in your spinal cord

If you had an accident and suffer any of the above symptoms, call your doctor or 911 and our law offices for a FREE consultation.

We will fight to obtain the compensation that you deserve, including all damages allowed under California law for all spinal cord injuries suffered, such as the following

1. All past and future medical, hospital, physical therapy, psychological, dental and cosmetic charges, including for scar revisions when needed (often with no payment due until your case is resolved—ask our attorneys to explain);
2. All past and future loss of earnings and also all time lost at work, even if paid for it under sick leave, vacation time or other benefits as the responsible party should not benefit by the benefits you earned and may have used up;
3. Loss of enjoyment of life and activities you lost and missed out on;
4. All past and future pain, suffering, emotional distress and inconvenience;
5. And any and all other appropriate damages permitted under California law.
