When Southern California spinal cord injury lawyers research a case, there is a lot of information that needs to be uncovered before the lawsuit can be filed.

Some common questions the lawyer will probably want answered involve:
- Details on how the accident occurred and whether or not another person should be held responsible
- Whether the lumbar spine damage leaves the patient with mild, moderate or severe pain, a paraplegic or with other motor or cognitive impairments
- Whether the patient requires extensive rehabilitation or long-term care in a nursing home facility
- Whether the patient's trauma requires him to have constant care, either by family members or nursing staff
- Whether the patient will be disabled or lose time from work
