A spinal cord injury can change your life instantly. One moment you’re driving through Tampa or enjoying a West Palm Beach boat ride, and the next, you’re facing rising medical bills, physical therapy, and uncertainty. At Kaiser Romanello Accident & Injury Attorneys, our spinal cord injury lawyers have nearly 25 years of experience in personal injury law, helping victims—like those from car accidents—navigate this challenging time with compassion and expertise.
- Challenges of SCI: Rising medical bills, loss of independence, and emotional strain, impacting your quality of life.
- Insurance Resistance: Insurance companies may minimize your spinal cord damage or deny liability, offering settlements insufficient for medical care.
- Our Commitment: Our law firm fights for fair compensation in your personal injury case with a no-fees-unless-you-win policy, handling claims from collisions, medical malpractice, or boating accidents across Florida.
The Lasting Impact of Catastrophic Injuries
Spinal cord injuries, among the most catastrophic injuries, reshape your physical, financial, and emotional well-being, affecting your quality of life due to severe spinal cord damage.
- Prevalence: About 18,000 new SCI cases occur annually in the U.S., per the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center (NSCISC).
- High-Risk Areas in Florida: Roads like I-275 in Tampa or the Turnpike near West Palm Beach.
- Types of SCI:
- Complete Injury: Total loss of sensation and movement below the injury site, often causing paraplegia or quadriplegia.
- Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury: Partial sensation or mobility, requiring extensive medical care and physical therapy.
- Affected Areas:
- Neck (cervical): Impacts arms, legs, and bodily functions.
- Mid-back (thoracic): Affects trunk control and legs.
- Lower back (lumbar/sacral): Limits leg movement and sensation, often involving the tailbone.
- Financial Impact: Lifetime costs for a 25-year-old with paraplegia can reach $2.3 million, per NSCISC, excluding lost income or emotional distress.
Our personal injury attorneys build spinal cord injury lawsuits to secure funds for medical expenses, lost earning capacity, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering.
Why Spinal Cord Injury Claims Get Denied
Insurance companies often resist paying fair compensation for spinal cord injury lawsuits, using tactics to reduce liability in your personal injury case.
- Common Denial Strategies:
- Claiming the spinal cord damage pre-existed the accident.
- Disputing the responsible party’s liability in collisions.
- Offering settlements that don’t cover long-term medical bills or physical therapy.
- Legal Challenges:
- Florida’s two-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims.
- Evidence fading over time, complicating the legal process.
- Common Causes of Spinal Cord Injuries:
- Distracted driving in motor vehicle accidents.
- Errors by medical professionals.
- Negligence in boating collisions.
Our spinal cord injury lawyers counter these tactics with police reports, medical records, and witness statements to prove liability. Our law firm, serving Tampa, Broward County, and beyond, ensures your injury claim withstands challenges from insurance companies throughout the legal process.
