Frequently Asked Questions About

Spinal Cord Injury Claims.

These are some of the most serious cases we handle. Here’s what you need to know if you or someone you love has a spinal injury:

  • What qualifies as a spinal cord injury in a legal claim?

    Any trauma that damages the spinal cord—leading to paralysis, mobility loss, nerve damage, or chronic pain—may qualify. The injury must have been caused by another party’s negligence or misconduct to support a legal claim.

  • What compensation is available for a spinal cord injury?

    Compensation may include medical expenses, future treatment, rehabilitation, in-home care, lost income, mobility equipment, and pain and suffering. We work to fully account for long-term costs and life impact.

  • How long do I have to file a spinal cord injury lawsuit?

    In California, the standard statute of limitations for personal injury cases is two years. However, exceptions apply if the injury was work-related or involved government entities—so don’t wait.

  • Do I need medical experts to prove my case?

    Yes. We work with neurologists, rehabilitation specialists, and economic experts to document the extent of your injury and the cost of future care. This helps ensure your claim reflects your true needs.

  • How much does it cost to hire your firm?

    We take spinal cord injury cases on a contingency fee basis. That means no upfront costs—you only pay if we win your case.
