Spinal Cord Injuries in Brevard County
Information About Spinal Cord Injury
Any type of damage to the spinal cord places the victim at risk of life-changing consequences due to the fact that the spinal cord makes it possible for the brain to regulate and control the body through the central nervous system. This type of injury may restrict or interrupt nerve flow, resulting in conditions ranging from dysfunction in the respiratory or digestive systems to numbness in the limbs or even full paralysis as in paraplegia or quadriplegia.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, motor vehicle collisions including car accidents and motorcycle accidents cause 46% of all new cases of spinal cord injury every year, followed by slip and fall accidents (22%) and assaults (16%). CDC also reports that the financial impact of SCI can range up to $30,000 per year and $3 million over the course of a lifetime, figures which only reflect the costs of medical care and do not take into account the income you may lose from a partial or total permanent disability. Let us help you pursue full compensation for your catastrophic injury, with a settlement to cover all your lost income, your medical expenses and pain and suffering.
