Spinal Cord Case Results
Our attorneys have extensive experience in helping clients who have suffered spinal cord injuries. Take a look at some of our successful case results:
- $400,000: Our client sustained neck and back injuries and had to have an aortic abdominal repair after being rear-ended by a semi-truck while he was riding in an Uber.
- $250,000: Our client suffered multiple compression fractures in the back and spine as well as broken ribs after a car merged into his lane and caused his car to spin out.
Types of Spinal Cord Injuries
Spinal cord injuries can be classified as incomplete or complete.
- Incomplete Spinal Cord Injuries: Victims maintain some use and feeling in the limbs below the point of damage. Thus, if you sustain an injury in your lower back but can still feel and move your legs to some extent, this counts as an incomplete spinal cord injury.
- Complete Spinal Cord Injuries: This type of injury inhibits any feeling or movement in the limbs below the point of damage.
Because these injuries are usually a result of an accident, they could happen to anyone. Spinal cord injuries may be caused by:
- Car accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Truck accidents
- Falls
- Defective products
A Topeka spine injury attorney can help you determine who’s at fault for the accident and seek the compensation you need to help you pay for your medical bills and other financial burdens.

What You Need to Know About Paralysis
When a sudden force impacts your spine, it can fracture bones, tear nerves, and cause permanent damage, leading to loss of sensation and movement. Spinal cord injuries can lead to varying degrees of paralysis depending on location and severity.
- Paraplegia: This is a condition characterized by paralysis of the lower body and legs.
- Quadriplegia (Tetraplegia): This is a condition in which a person experiences paralysis of the entire body below the neck.
These types of paralysis can have lifelong debilitating effects, causing physical stress and emotional trauma for the victim and their families. In many cases, these injuries require extensive medical treatment, rehabilitation, and long-term care.
A Topeka spinal cord injury lawyer can help you seek the financial compensation you need to pay for these expenses.
What Compensation Can I Recover After a Spinal Cord Injury?
Spine and back injuries can lead to long-term issues. It’s only fair that you receive financial compensation to help you during this difficult time. Whether through a settlement or jury verdict, our spine injury lawyers in Topeka can help you seek payment for the following losses:
- Medical bills
- Long-term and in-home care
- Lost income
