Fighting for Victims of Life-Changing Back and Spinal Injuries
Few injuries are as devastating as damage to the spinal cord. Whether caused by a car crash on Storrow Drive, a fall on a downtown construction site, or a violent collision while cycling near the Charles River, spinal cord injuries can alter the course of your life forever. Victims may face partial or total paralysis, chronic pain, and permanent disability. Families often struggle with overwhelming medical bills and the uncertainty of what the future holds.
At our downtown Boston personal injury law firm, we stand up for spinal cord injury victims and their families. We fight aggressively to hold negligent parties accountable and to secure the full compensation you need for long-term care, financial stability, and peace of mind.
Understanding Spinal Cord Injuries
The spinal cord is the body’s communication highway, sending signals between the brain and the rest of the body. When damaged, the results can be catastrophic. Spinal cord injuries (SCIs) are typically classified as:
- Incomplete SCI: Some movement and sensation remain below the injury site
- Complete SCI: Total loss of function below the injury site
Even “incomplete” injuries can cause permanent limitations, requiring lifelong care and rehabilitation.
Common Causes of Spinal Cord Injuries in Boston
Our firm handles spinal cord injury cases caused by:
- Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents
- Pedestrian and bicycle crashes with vehicles
- Falls from heights at construction sites or workplaces
- Slip and fall or trip and fall accidents on unsafe property
- Acts of violence due to negligent security
- Sports and recreational accidents
- Medical malpractice involving surgical errors or delayed diagnoses
No matter the cause, if negligence played a role, you have the right to pursue justice.
