Southern California Cervical Spine Injuries
Personal injury lawyers represent the victims of cervical spine injuries and their families, who may be putting a lot of financial resources into the care and rehabilitation of the victim. Depending on the severity of the spinal-cord damage, the accident could result in severe pain, permanent paralysis or death.
The cervical spine is located in the neck and is frequently damaged by trauma from:
- Motor vehicle accidents
- Whiplash
- Gunshot or stabbing wounds
- Falls
- Motorcycle/Bicycle Accidents
West Hollywood spinal-cord attorneys can explain the law and evaluate a case to determine the victim's rights. A reputable attorney will research a case thoroughly to determine the likelihood of winning a cervical spine injury case and will not charge for legal counsel until the lawsuit is won. In many cases, the lawsuit will be settled out of court, resulting in a quicker settlement and lower legal fees for the victim.
Types of Cervical Spine Injuries
Injuries to the cervical spine can include whiplash, a ruptured disc, facet joint syndrome and other serious conditions. Some of these, such as facet joint syndrome, can cause extreme discomfort, limiting a person's range of motion and making him unable to move easily. The effects of this syndrome can be permanent, causing a lifetime of pain and disability for the victim.
