A spinal cord injury (SCI) is a life-altering event that can result in partial or complete paralysis. Whether from a car crash, fall, or other trauma, an SCI frequently means permanent disability and a lifetime of medical needs.
The level and completeness of the injury determine its effects. Higher injuries to the cervical spine can affect the arms, hands, and breathing, while lower injuries may affect the legs and lower body. All require extensive, ongoing care.
The costs are staggering: emergency and surgical care, rehabilitation, assistive equipment, home modifications, personal care attendants, and lost lifetime earnings. Valuing an SCI claim demands medical and vocational experts to project future needs.
Because the stakes are so high, insurers fight these claims aggressively. Securing fair compensation requires thorough documentation, expert support, and an attorney prepared to litigate if necessary.
