Spinal injuries are among the most serious injuries a person can suffer in an accident, as you’re likely aware. Damage to the spine usually occurs through blunt force trauma to the back, resulting in pain, suffering, and in some cases, permanent injury. When you have suffered an injury like this, you will likely have extensive damages.
Your medical expenses could be hefty, and depending on the severity of your spinal damage, you may require caregiving services. Some spinal injuries cause partial paralysis, while others can lead to permanent total paralysis. If you’ve suffered from this type of injury, you will need compensation to provide for a future with a serious injury.

Trauma to the vertebrae in your spine can happen in a variety of accident types. Your spinal cord (the nerve bundle that travels the length of your spine) could be injured by a direct impact or severed by broken bones near your spine that cut through or damage the nerves.
Other types of spinal injuries can cause severe bruising and swelling, which can lead to the compression of nerves, causing temporary paralysis. If your spinal cord is severed or damaged beyond repair, you could be paralyzed for life.
Accidents most frequently associated with spinal damage include the following:
To receive the monetary compensation you so desperately need, you must file and win your personal injury case.
There are many steps to the personal injury claim process: Investigate your accident to determine the cause and who’s liable; gather evidence to prove your case; collect medical records of your injuries; and negotiate a settlement with involved insurance companies—just to name a few.
Also, should the insurance companies or negligent parties refuse to pay out on your claim, it may become necessary to take your case to the courtroom. None of these steps are easy, and that’s why it’s so important for you to speak with an ABQ spinal injury attorney who can help.
Your lawyer will fight hard to win you the compensation you deserve and guide you through the entire process from start to finish. That way, you can focus on what matters most—dealing with your injuries and living a full life.
When someone else has hurt you, negligence laws allow you to file your claim seeking damages and justice for what’s happened to you. All people are responsible for the harm they do to others, and if you’ve been injured by someone else, you should be able to secure the monetary compensation you need to move past the resulting injuries.
Depending on the extent of your injuries, compensation may make all the difference in your future. For instance, if you are paralyzed by a back injury, you may be unable to work. You may need compensation from the at-fault party to provide an income for yourself and your family.
Below, you’ll find a list of some of the types of compensatory damages your Albuquerque spinal damage attorney can help secure for you:
Damage to the spinal cord can affect your life in many ways, especially if you suffer a permanent injury like paralysis. You may be unable to work, and your mobility will be forever altered. You will need to secure compensation so you can deal with a new future.
