Who Is Liable for Spinal Cord Injuries?

As with other types of personal injury claims, the issue of liability is critical to spinal cord injury cases. To bring a claim for damages, you will need to identify who is liable for your losses. The liable party could be any individual person, private company, government agency, or another entity that acted negligently or wrongfully. If this negligent or wrongful conduct was the proximate cause of your spine injury, you could have grounds for a claim.

The first step in determining who is liable for your damages is identifying how the injury occurred. By determining who caused the accident or incident that led to your spine injury, we can identify who is liable.

Some of the most common causes of spinal cord injuries include:

Our attorneys work with a team of six on-staff investigators to evaluate the cause of your accident and, in turn, determine who is liable for your injuries. Depending on the specifics of your case, this could be anyone from a negligent motorist to a trucking company to a product manufacturer.

What Damages Can Spine Injury Victims Recover?

Spine injuries are generally considered catastrophic injuries, meaning they meet Florida’s “serious injury” threshold. This means that individuals who sustained spinal cord injuries in auto-related accidents are typically able to go outside the state’s no-fault system and seek compensation for all of their damages, including both economic and non-economic damages. The same is true for spine injury victims who were injured in non-vehicle-related accidents.

The exact value of your case, as well as the specific damages you may be able to recover, will depend on a variety of factors, including the nature and severity of your injuries. Remember that no reputable attorney can say exactly how much your case may be worth without first going over the specifics of your situation with you.

That being said, many spine injury victims are able to recover compensation for:

  • Emergency medical care
  • Ambulance fees
  • Hospitalization
  • Diagnostic testing
  • Ongoing treatments
  • Future medical expenses
  • Medications
  • Medical equipment (e.g., wheelchairs)
  • In-home care costs
  • Home modifications
  • Lost income/wages
  • Lost earning ability
  • Lost future earnings
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional trauma
  • Counseling services
  • Inconvenience
  • Lost quality of life
