What Is a Spinal Cord Injury?

A spinal cord injury (SCI) occurs when trauma damages the spinal cord, disrupting communication between the brain and the rest of the body. The severity depends on the injury’s location and extent. Higher injuries on the spinal cord can cause complete or partial paralysis of both upper and lower body, while lower injuries may only affect the legs.

Common Causes of Spinal Cord Injuries

Spinal cord injuries can result from a range of traumatic events, including:

  • Motor vehicle accidents

  • Slip and falls, especially among seniors

  • Sports-related incidents like diving accidents

  • Acts of violence, such as gunshots or stabbings

  • Workplace injuries

  • Medical or surgical complications

  • Birth-related injuries

  • Diseases and infections, including cancer or multiple sclerosis

Spinal cord injuries often result from car accidents, slip and falls, sports injuries, acts of violence, workplace accidents, and medical complications.

Compensation varies based on the severity of the injury, medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and future care needs. An experienced Irvine spinal cord injury lawyer can provide a more accurate estimate after reviewing your case.

California’s statute of limitations generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim, but it’s best to consult an attorney as soon as possible to avoid missing important deadlines.

Many spinal cord injury cases are settled through negotiations, but if a fair settlement cannot be reached, your attorney will be prepared to take your case to trial to secure maximum compensation.

Bring any relevant medical records, accident reports, insurance correspondence, and documentation of expenses or lost income to help your attorney evaluate your case effectively.
