Spinal cord injuries are among the most catastrophic of injuries. They affect more than mobility; they can make it impossible for families to return to the lives they once had. They require significantly more care than almost any other type of injury, creating a substantial and lasting financial burden on families.
The Hayden Law Firm works with families throughout Missouri and Illinois whose loved ones suffered long-term and permanent injury to the spine and spinal cord. We will work to establish the cause of your injuries and the overall effect on your life and your loved ones, and present those findings to ensure you get the full compensation you deserve.
Spinal cord injuries include:
These injuries can lead to paralysis such as paraplegia and quadriplegia (tetraplegia). However, not all spinal injuries involve the cord. Examples of non-spinal cord injuries include:
Some of these injuries can be treated with medication and therapy, but others may require surgical intervention.
Spinal cord injuries can occur in any type of accident, but motor vehicle accidents are a major driver of these catastrophic injuries. Other causes include:
No matter the cause of your spinal cord injury, you should not have to bear the burden alone if it was caused by someone else’s negligence.
