In this case the injured party may be eligible to claim compemsation with the help of our expert spinal cord injury lawyers.

How a spinal cord injury happens

Spinal cord injuries are normally the result of a sudden accident which fractures or dislocates vertebrae, where bone fragments or other material tears into the spinal cord tissue.

The reason spine injuries can be extremely serious is because the spinal cord transmits messages from the brain to the body below it. Due to this, a completely severed spinal cord will result in paralysis below the point of the spinal injury.

Causes of spine injuries

There are many potential causes of spinal injuries, and survivors of spine injuries will experience varying symptoms depending on how badly damaged the spinal cord is. This is because the extent of the spinal cord injury will determine how well the spinal cord can continue to to convey messages from the brain.
