Paralysis
The Person or Business Who Caused Your Paralysis Should Be Held Accountable
New Orleans Paralysis Lawyer
Paralysis is a type of catastrophic injury often resulting from serious accidents or medical conditions. While paralysis may be temporary in some cases, in many it is a permanent life-altering injury like paraplegia or quadriplegia.
If you or a loved one has been paralyzed following a brain or spinal cord injury caused by someone else’s negligence, you could be entitled to compensation. Find out more about this type of personal injury claim from a New Orleans paralysis lawyer.
What Are the Most Common Causes of Paralysis?
Paralysis can be caused by a variety of spinal cord injuries, many of which may be sustained in auto accidents. Common accidents causing paralysis include:
Other kinds of accidents are also prone to causing paralysis, including:
- Swimming pool accidents
- Construction or building collapse accidents
- Slip and fall accidents
Finally, paralysis may also occur due to hospital errors or medical malpractice, or as a result of nursing home abuse or neglect.
Insurance Companies Are Not Charities
Insurance companies are in business to make money, and they maintain record profits by maximizing the premium payments they receive while minimizing the claim payments they pay to filers and injury victims. They’re not charities, and they have added incentive to fight claims that could result in particularly large losses for their bottom line.
The most expensive types of claims by far are catastrophic injury claims, especially those that have far-reaching consequences like paralysis injuries. Victims may have long-term care costs resulting from extremely high surgical costs, hospital stays, rehabilitation, occupational therapy, and continuing care.
Families may also have millions of dollars in other expenses ranging from lost wages and earnings potential to loss of consortium and long-term childcare costs. Every aspect of life becomes more expensive after suffering a disability, and it’s important you and your family receive the funds you need to move on with your life.
