 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. With LLN attorneys Harry and Gerardo I never had to worry. I never had to worry about whether LLN is going get me the best settlement possible…or rollover at the first offer. Harry and Gerardo have a simple action plan. Present the case for negotiation. If that’s not respected then go to trial. After I signed up with LLN I was introduced to the entire team on a Zoom call. I was told who was responsible for what. I was told where things happen, when things happen, and how they happen. I downloaded the LLN app, and if I needed to reach anyone I simply messaged them and someone got back to me in a timely manner. I always had the option to call if necessary. What I didn’t have to deal with is a guy on a billboard telling me how cool and tough they are. The same guy that calls right away when the slightest pushback happens telling me I need to settle. LLN are trial attorneys who actually go to trial against the opposition. It seems like most other law firms only go to trial when they’re suing their own law partner. How many billboards have I driven past? How many buses with advertisement on the side? How many TV commercials telling me how “they’re gonna fight for my whatever”. It doesn’t happen… and it’s all smoke and mirrors with a majority of the attorneys out there. I believe the attorneys at LLN didn’t do this just for me. LLN operates the way they do because they have pride in their work and self-respect. They have a reputation to uphold, not only with their clients but also with their colleagues and their peers. How do I know this? Because I saw them interact with mediators and judges. I saw how they were treated by the people making the decisions. They have their respect. It’s critical to note that I had realistic expectations for my settlement. For me it was all about finding the sweet spot. The trade-off between a long trial and a verdict, or taking what quite possibly is just as close an offer and settling much earlier while minimizing risk. Once I made a decision I did not look back. The attorneys at LLN are realistic. They stated ‘this is what we have’ , ‘this is what we don’t have’, and ‘this is what we might be able to achieve’ . I made a decision with as much informed consent as possible. I can live with that.

Los Angeles Spinal Cord Injury Lawyer

Spinal cord injuries almost always cause permanent, irreversible damage. A person experiences a wide range of life-altering effects and can rarely live their life in the same way they did previously. A spinal cord injury requires adapting to a new way of life and will impact the person for years to come.

If you suffered a spinal cord injury due to another person or entity’s negligence, you could secure compensation through a personal injury lawsuit. Speak with a Los Angeles spinal cord injury lawyer about your case. Our attorneys can conduct an independent investigation into your accident to determine fault and will hire the necessary experts to help you win. We understand the devastating impact of spinal cord trauma and paralysis, and while no amount of money can reverse the physical and emotional impact of your injury, a successful claim can give you the means to afford your care and move on from the injury. To learn more about your rights, contact our catastrophic injury attorneys.

Common Causes of Spinal Cord Injuries

When any portion of the spinal cord suffers trauma, it can cause serious complications, including paralysis. The severity of a spinal cord injury depends on the location and force of impact. One of the first steps in pursuing justice is determining the cause of the injury and who is liable. Some common causes of spinal cord injuries include:

Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents
Pedestrian accidents
Bus accidents
Slip and falls
Recreational accidents (sports, boating, etc.)
Medical malpractice
Acts of violence (gunshot wounds, assault)

If you are unsure of what caused your spinal cord injury, our Los Angeles lawyer can review the circumstances of your case to determine who is responsible. A successful claim requires proof of negligence. For example, someone who became paralyzed after a car accident caused by a drunk driver would have a claim for damages related to the wreck.

Impact of a Spinal Cord Injury and Recoverable Damages

A spinal cord injury has a significant impact on a person’s life. When awarding damages in spinal cord injury cases, the settlement or damage award should account for the long-term effect. For instance, those who suffer paralysis or other severe spinal cord damage may be unable to work. They will suffer lost income and earning capacity. Compensation must account for these factors.

Similarly, the cost of treating such a serious injury can be astronomical. A damage award can cover the cost of medical expenses, physical therapy, hospital care, medication, and necessary renovations to accommodate a disability. In spinal cord injury cases, the burden is on the victim to prove negligence against the person responsible. Consult our attorney in Los Angeles about how to succeed with a spinal cord injury claim.

Types of Spinal Cord Injuries and How Injury Severity Affects Compensation

Spinal cord injuries can occur along any part of the spinal cord. Doctors classify spinal injuries based on their severity and how they affect the body:

Complete – These injuries result in a total loss of feeling and motor control below the site of the spinal cord injury
Incomplete – These injuries result in partial loss of movement and motor control below the site of the spinal cord injury

Doctors describe the paralysis resulting from a spinal injury as:

Paraplegia – Paralysis affecting the hands, arms, legs, trunk, and pelvic organs
Tetraplegia (quadriplegia) – Paralysis affecting the legs, all or part of the trunk, and the pelvic organs, but not the arms

Typically, the more severe your injury is and the greater the extent of your paralysis, the higher your compensation will be. This is because more serious injuries have a greater effect on your ability to work and your overall well-being and quality of life.

More extensive paralysis can also lead to more significant medical costs, including the cost of Personal Care Attendants (PCAs) to help with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs).

Our Los Angeles spinal cord injury attorneys could help you identify current and ongoing injury-related expenses. When necessary, we will work with medical professionals, life-care planners, and other experts to ensure we pursue all of the money you need for your future care.

How Does the Statute of Limitations Affect Spinal Injury Claims?

According to California Code of Civil Procedure § 335.1, you have two years from when your injury occurred to file most personal injury lawsuits. This statute of limitations is critical, even if you plan to pursue your damages through an insurance claim, such as an auto liability insurance claim against an at-fault driver.

If the two-year window runs out, the court will usually not allow you to sue. Without the threat of a suit, there is nothing incentivizing the insurance company to offer you a fair settlement. You may have to accept a denial of your claim or a lowball offer because you no longer have any avenue for legal recourse.

Our spinal cord injury lawyers in Los Angeles could help you avoid missing essential deadlines. We could conduct an investigation of the accident that caused your injury, file your insurance claims, work through settlement negotiations, and file your case in civil court if necessary. We prepare every claim for trial and do not back down.

Where Can Spinal Cord Injury Survivors Find Resources?

There are numerous support groups and rehabilitation centers for spinal cord injury survivors in the Los Angeles area. These centers include the Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center, which is one of only 14 Spinal Cord Injury Model System (SCIMS) Centers in the country.

Nationwide, survivors and their families can find resources and support through the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation and the United Spinal Association.

Our lawyers could also provide legal guidance to Los Angeles spinal cord injury survivors.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS A PERSONAL INJURY?

Personal injury cases are some of the most common civil litigation cases—also known as “tort actions” or “lawsuits”—in the United States. They are filed by individuals who have experienced bodily injury, pain and suffering, and sometimes property damage in an accident caused by a negligent third party. These claims can also be filed for intentional harm or defamation of character by a third party.

DO I NEED TO HIRE A PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY?

What are the pros and cons of each? There are two ways in which compensation can be awarded to you for your claim: through a settlement or by going to trial. There are pros and cons to each.

Notifying Insurance Companies

You should notify your insurance company and the responsible party’s insurance company as soon as possible after your accident. Most insurance companies request that you file your claim within 24 – 48 hours after your accident. When you file a personal injury insurance claim, you are requesting that the at-fault party’s insurance pay for the losses you suffered as a result of your accident, and the compensation amount is determined during negotiations.

Generally, compensation can be sought for two types of damages: economic and non-economic. Economic damages are those with a measurable monetary value, such as medical expenses and lost wages.

It is important to understand the types of damages available in your case so that you can seek compensation for all of your related losses.
