Jacksonville Spinal Cord Injury Lawyer
Your spinal cord – the bundle of nerves running down from your brain to the tips of your toes – is one of, if not the single most important part of your body. It transmits your brain’s signals to every organ and extremity, and any disruption can have catastrophic consequences. If you suffered a serious spinal cord injury caused by someone else’s actions, it’s in your best interest to reach out to a Jacksonville spinal cord injury lawyer as soon as possible.
Spinal cord injuries can lead to a lifetime of chronic pain or partial or full paralysis. Treatment for such injuries can be incredibly costly and is frequently only partially successful. If another person’s negligence can be demonstrated as the cause of your accident, then you may be entitled to recover compensation for every aspect of your injury, from your lost income to your medical bills and pain and suffering.

Leading Causes of Spinal Cord Injuries
According to the Mayo Clinic, car accidents and motorcycle accidents account for more than 90% of all new spinal cord injuries every year, making them the leading cause.
Drivers and passengers may suffer whiplash even in relatively minor fender-benders and rear-end collisions, and the symptoms often do not manifest for hours or days after the accident. Victims of catastrophic car crashes are likely to suffer severe spinal cord injuries, as well as motorcycle riders who are struck by a car or ejected from the bike.
Falling is another major source of this type of injury, such as in slip and fall pedestrian accidents or certain construction accidents.

Treatment options range from invasive surgery to chiropractic adjustments and physical therapy.
