Spinal Cord Injuries

A staggering 11,000+ Americans sustain severe spinal cord injuries each year, causing constant pain, paralysis, and even death. Most often, spinal cord injuries are caused by direct trauma, where vertebrae are fractured or dislocated. Car accidents and slip and falls account for the highest percentage of spinal cord injuries, at 47% and 23% respectively. Many times, spinal cord injuries are the result of another person's negligence, such as careless or dangerous driving or hazardous maintenance of property. In any event, spinal cord injuries can be devastating to victims and their families, often requiring costly long-term medical care and rehabilitation, lost periods of lost employment, and a great deal of pain and suffering. In short, sadly, they are often life-altering injuries.

Spinal Cord Injuries Are Often Life-Changing

Spinal cord injuries often have severe consequences for victims and their families. They can cause a victim to lose sensation and free movement, including paralysis to the arms and legs (quadriplegia) or lower body (paraplegia). Additionally, victims may have difficulty maintaining healthy blood pressure, diminished respiratory function, inability to control bladder and bowel function, and loss of sexual function. Additionally, many victims of spinal cord injury live in chronic pain. Sometimes, victims cannot return to work or enjoying normal daily activities. Treatment may be life-long and is exceptionally costly.

Quadriplegia And Paraplegia

In the United States, there are 6,500 new victims of quadriplegia each year and 130,000 people living with the debilitating condition. Quadriplegia occurs after an injury to a cervical vertebra, resulting in the loss of feeling and function in arms and legs, amongst many other symptoms, including a diminished lifespan. An additional 4,500 people suffer paraplegia yearly, which causes a loss of feeling and function in the lower half of the body. Like quadriplegia, paraplegics must often endure chronic pain, loss of sexual function, and uncontrolled bowel and bladder movements.

Car Accidents Are The Most Likely Cause, But Other Negligent Acts Result In SCIs

Car accidents are the root cause of nearly half of all spinal cord injuries in the United States. Many times, another driver's negligence causes the accident. We hold all at-fault drivers and their insurance companies liable for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering. We have decades of experience negotiating top settlements with insurance companies and will obtain you fair compensation. Other times, slip-and-falls on hazardous premises, defective products causing injury, medical malpractice, misdiagnosis, or wrong diagnosis, and other negligent acts are the cause of the injury.

The Boston personal injury attorneys at Bellotti Law Group, P.C. will aggressively pursue your claim and hold any and all liable parties accountable for their negligence that caused your spinal cord injury. We have offices in Boston, Cambridge, and Quincy and serve in courts throughout Massachusetts and Southern New England.

We went to Bellotti Law for help with a car injury to a pedestrian in a hospital parking garage. Peter is very low-key and calm, but know well how the system works and got us an excellent settlement through persistence, and helping us to track the effects of the injury and its future potential effects. He made a very strong case, and held out for a great settlement… I highly recommend him for his calm persistence, intelligence and experience in personal injury cases. Paul F.
