Medical Malpractice and Spinal Cord Injury

While spinal cord injuries usually occur due to injuries sustained in car accidents, falls or similar occurrences, there are instances of medical malpractice causing spinal cord injury. Spinal cord injury can result in partial or complete paralysis and thus alter your life forever. If this has happened to you or a loved one, you deserve and require compensation to assist in coping with this tragic life event.

Medical malpractice can cause spinal cord injury in a variety of ways, including:

Insufficient care of monitoring in a hospital or nursing home resulting in a fall from bed or other surface which results in a spinal injury
Failure to diagnose a tumor before it further develops and results in spinal cord damage
Errors in surgery or complications resulting from surgery which cause damage to the spine
Undiagnosed infections or abscesses compressing the spine and resulting in irreversible damage
Improperly administered spinal anesthetics or spinal blocks resulting in nerve damage and paralysis
