If you or someone you love has been injured, and as a result is now a paraplegic or quadriplegic, you need very specialized care, and very specialized legal representation.
Quadriplegic, paraplegic and paralysis cases
Paraplegic, quadriplegic and paralysis are results of a spinal cord injury. Quadriplegia (also known as Tetraplegia ) generally describes the condition of a person with a spinal cord injury that is at a level from C1 to T1. This type of injury often results in a loss of feeling and/or movement in the head, neck, shoulder, arms and/or upper chest.
Paraplegia is the general term describing the condition of a person who has lost feeling and/or is not able to move the lower parts of his/her body. The body parts that may be affected are the chest, stomach, hips, legs and feet. These injuries are categorized as T2 to S5.
Those who suffer spinal cord injuries and paralysis often face a lifetime of health related problems including urinary tract and bladder problems, osteoporosis, pulmonary complications and many other health problems. Expenses including medical care, prescription drugs, and costs for caregivers are just the tip of the iceberg. Compensation to pay for both these economic damages as well as human damages (such as pain and suffering) requires an attorney who can accurately place a value on the damages. This requires experience with life-care planning and working with life-care planning experts.
