Determining who is ultimately responsible for providing compensation for your spinal cord injury will depend upon the specific facts of your case—and the inquiry will obviously differ depending upon the type of accident in which you were injured.

The level of compensatory damages available in your spinal cord injury case will depend upon multiple factors, one of which is the severity of the injury you have suffered. In most cases, the severity of the injury will depend upon where on the spinal cord your injury occurred, with injuries higher on the spinal cord generally producing the most serious impact on your life. Our Fort Lauderdale Spinal Cord Injury Lawyers will evaluate all of the symptoms of your spinal cord injury to build a compelling case for your right to recover maximum compensation. These symptoms commonly may include:

  • Numbness or reduced sensation in the limbs, hands and feet,
  • Difficulty controlling bladder function,
  • Muscle spasms,
  • Difficulty breathing, coughing or swallowing,
  • Inability to move limbs,
  • Problems with sexual function or fertility,
  • Severe pain caused by nerve or disc damage in the spinal cord area.

Frequently Asked Questions About Spinal Cord Injury Claims in South Florida

What should I do if I believe that I have suffered a spinal cord injury or think someone else involved in an accident suffered a spinal cord injury?

It is important to remain still if you believe that you or a loved one has suffered a spinal cord injury. In order to avoid causing further damage to the spinal cord, you should remain still and call emergency services so that a trained emergency responder can move you safely to the hospital for a full medical evaluation. In some cases, the full extent of a spinal cord injury may not be immediately apparent after an accident, making it possible that the injury could be made even worse by further movement. A complete and prompt medical evaluation is critical to ensuring the best possible physical outcome after you have suffered a spinal cord injury.

How does the cause of my spinal cord injury impact the process of recovering compensation?

The type of accident in which you were injured can have a significant impact on how we proceed to recover compensation. For example, the process of recovering compensation in a medical malpractice case against a negligent doctor or hospital is significantly different than how we would proceed if you sustained a spinal cord injury in a car accident—because Florida medical malpractice laws dictate that a different process applies to hold a negligent healthcare provider responsible. In all cases, we will investigate to determine who is ultimately responsible for paying compensation in your case so that we can identify all available insurance compensation. When insurance compensation is insufficient, we will also explore filing a personal injury lawsuit against the negligent party.
