Spinal Cord Injuries

Virginia Spinal Cord Injury Lawyers

Alexandria firm represents victims of head, neck and back injuries

A blow to the spinal cord caused by a car accident, a fall, or another type of incident can change your life forever. Whether your injury causes chronic pain, requires surgery, or results in paralysis, you likely will have to deal with extensive medical bills and missed time at work. If you were hurt because of someone else’s carelessness, they should compensate you for the harm you’ve experienced. At Curcio Law in Alexandria, we pursue fair payment for Virginians who have suffered back, head, and neck injuries. Our firm has a track record you can trust and have extensive experience working with medical experts to prove your legal claim.

Injuries that affect the spine and nervous system

Our personal injury attorneys pursue justice for people who have suffered spinal injuries because of someone else’s negligence or willful misconduct. Specific effects of a spinal injury can include:

  • Paralysis — As a result of more serious spinal injuries, the victim suffers a permanent loss of function. In catastrophic injury cases involving partial and total paralysis, we develop a comprehensive case so that plaintiffs can receive the compensation they need to pay their medical bills, recover their lost wages, modify their residences, and get the assistance they need due to the effects of their spinal injury.
  • Slipped and herniated disks — Soft disks are present in between the vertebrae that form the human spine. A vehicle collision or some other type of impact might cause the disk to slip or rupture causing pressure on spinal nerves, leading to significant pain. If the jelly-like substance in the center of the disk breaks through the more rubbery outer layer, that is referred to as a herniated disk.
  • Whiplash — The sudden stop that occurs when a car is involved in a collision can cause severe strain to the muscles, and nerves in the neck and back as the victim’s head violently whips back and forth.
  • Spinal contusions — Trauma to the spinal cord caused by a fall or some other heavy contact could result in inflammation and the disruption of nerve activity. Unlike different types of bruises, a spinal contusion might affect other parts of the body due to the impact on the central nervous system.

Spinal injury claims often require the presentation of complex evidence and expert witness testimony to prove the link between the defendant’s carelessness and the plaintiff’s physical condition. We consult with highly regarded professionals to strengthen our client’s claims.

Accidents that frequently cause spinal problems

Many Virginians suffer spinal injuries in auto accidents. This can happen because of the initial force of a collision or the secondary impact that occurs when the momentum of the crash pushes occupants into parts of the car’s interior. Slippery floors, cracked pavement, and other hazards also lead to premises liability cases involving back, head, and neck injuries. We have the skill and experience to gather the evidence needed to achieve strong results in spinal and brain injury claims.
