A statute of limitations applies to all lawsuits. It is no different for spinal injury compensation suits.
The injury must have happened because of someone else's recklessness or an on the job accident. Simply suffering from a spinal cord injury is not enough.
Pain, treatment and adjusting to life with a disability is going to be very stressful and time consuming. Dealing with the investigation of the claim may prove to be too much.
The investigation for claims of this nature is going to include costs of the damage, rehabilitation, care, losses suffered, housing, specialized equipment, housing and transportation as well as other possible expenses. Also included in this portion is chance of future medical problems that may arise from the injury.
Damage can cause the loss of work or being able to seek work in another field. This leads to income decreasing and loss of retirement. All these affect not only the person injured but their family as well.
Disappointment can come from losing promotion opportunities, adding diversity to a career not being able to find other employment. Losing a job includes losing all the benefits that may go with it such as: phone usage, health insurance, company car, overtime pay, allowances and others offered by the company.
Specialists will be required to establish the immediate, future and long requirements. Providing estimated losses that the injury may cause are also required.
When settling these claims, tax situations as well as income and investment situations must be considered. To help with this, financial advisors may be brought in.
Injuries to the spinal cord cause a loss of feeling or movement. Spinal cord injuries are most often caused by trauma or disease. Severing of the spinal cord is not necessary for loss of function. This type of injury is different from back injuries.
It is possible to break the back or neck and not suffer an injury to the spinal cord.
Complete severing of the spinal cord is not needed for paralysis. Swelling, which halts new nerve pathways from forming, can happen due to scar tissue.
If you or one of your family members has sustained a serious spinal or spinal cord injury, it is important to obtain prompt specialist advice to ensure that you and your family receive the compensation you deserve as quickly as possible.
