SPINAL CORD INJURIES
If you’ve been the victim of a spinal cord injury, you could be entitled to compensation. A Pennsylvania based spinal cord injury lawyer may be able to help.
A spinal cord injury is a life changing experience for both the victim and their family. Tasks that were once easy to complete now pose a challenge and the injured person may not even be able to care for themselves anymore. Common consequences of a spinal cord injury include but are not limited to:
Numbness
Loss of sensation
Paralysis
Chronic pain
Breathing difficulties
Loss of bodily functions
Trouble regulating blood pressure

Damage to the spinal cord cannot be reversed. Even with physical therapy, the victim may be in a wheelchair and will likely require lifelong medical treatment. The most common causes of spinal cord injuries include acts of violence, car accidents, work injuries, falls and sports injuries.
