  • Spinal cord injury—Injuries can cause permanent paralysis from the neck down (quadriplegia) or the waist down (paraplegia) depending on the point of the injury.
  • Herniated disc—The pads of cartilage in between each vertebrae press on a nerve and cause pain.
  • Compression fractures—The bones of the spine break due to trauma.
  • Whiplash—Neck pain caused by strains to ligaments, tendons, and muscles.
  • Lower back pain—Back pain can involve occasional flare ups or chronic pain that doesn't go away.

If you have sustained a life-altering back or neck injury, it is important that you receive compensation for the full extent of your damages. Our law firm has won millions of dollars in benefits for clients who have suffered catastrophic work-related injuries.

Expanding the Rights of Injured Workers

We established the legal precedent that allowed clients to receive a van equipped with a wheelchair lift, attendant care, and modifications to their homes as part of their workers' compensation settlement agreements. We will consult a qualified life care planning professional to testify to your ongoing needs.

Work-related injuries to the soft tissues of the back and neck can cause severe pain, while not leaving any indication of disability on diagnostic tests. Without this objective documentation, workers' compensation insurers can be reluctant to approve your claim. Our attorneys can help.

Please contact us today. We offer a free consultation to review your case and discuss your rights.
