Spinal cord injury

Although great advances have been made in the treatment of spinal cord injury, for most people, the injury will have a catastrophic effect on the victim and their family. 

Although some spinal injuries are not so severe as to cause paralysis – the most serious forms can result in long term and lifelong consequences.  Injuries to the spinal cord in the neck can render the victim tetraplegic (paralysis of the arms and legs) whilst damage further down the spine might cause devastating injury and paralysis to the lower limbs (paraplegia). Many people who suffer spinal injury become wheelchair bound.

We recognise that those with spinal injuries have different and far-reaching needs that those with less severe injuries may not have.

We understand that a compensation claim for spinal injury is a complex process and requires the experience and skills of specialist spinal injury lawyers. We have the experience and skills to make life easier for individuals and their families at a time when they are at their most vulnerable.
