These injuries are often caused by serious accidents stemming from another party\u2019s negligence or recklessness, such as car crashes, falls, or acts of violence. A sudden, forceful impact to the spine can fracture or dislocate vertebrae, leading to bruising, tearing, or complete severance of spinal cord tissue. It is not uncommon for a form of paralysis or a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/blog\/what-is-a-c5-c6-injury\/\">C5\/C6 injury<\/a> to accompany these types of injuries.<\/p><p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/diseases-conditions\/spinal-cord-injury\/symptoms-causes\/syc-20377890\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mayo Clinic<\/a>, the degree of disability induced by a spinal cord injury is determined by the location and severity of the injury. The spinal cord is the connection between the brain and the rest of the body. When the cord\u2019s fibers are injured, some communications are stopped, and any bodily functions that rely on the blocked messages are lost. Unfortunately, although there are plenty of revolutionary treatments and therapy out there, there is no way to completely reverse a spinal cord injury.\u00a0<\/p><p>At The Law Offices of Michael J. Vergis, we understand the immense challenges faced by spinal cord injury and paralysis victims and are committed to fighting for the justice and financial support they deserve. If you or a loved one has suffered a spinal or paralysis injury due to someone else\u2019s negligence, our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/personal-injury\/paralysis\/\">Shreveport paralysis attorneys<\/a> can help you seek compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and long-term care.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c51d149 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"c51d149\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/back-injury-lawyer-shreveport.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-601\" alt=\"back injury lawyer shreveport\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/back-injury-lawyer-shreveport.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/back-injury-lawyer-shreveport-800x432.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/back-injury-lawyer-shreveport-1200x648.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/back-injury-lawyer-shreveport-768x415.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/back-injury-lawyer-shreveport-1536x829.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/back-injury-lawyer-shreveport-18x10.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6afc2cf elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6afc2cf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>Common Causes of Back and Spine Injuries<\/h2><p>The most common <strong>cause of spinal cord injury<\/strong> is a violent blow to the spine that dislocates or fractures vertebrae, causing tearing or bruising of the tissue in the spinal cord. Whether due to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/personal-injury\/auto-accident-attorney\/louisiana-car-accident-lawyer\/\">car accident<\/a>, a fall, or any other harsh impact, spinal cord injuries frequently result in some degree of paralysis. Even if the accident did not result in damage to the spinal cord but rather the back, back injuries can lead to a lifetime of complications and insufferable pain.\u00a0<\/p><p>The events listed below are among those that could result in a back or spinal cord injury:<\/p><h3>Accidents Involving Motor Vehicles<\/h3><p>Car accidents are one of the most common causes of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/blog\/blunt-force-trauma-injury-lawsuit\/\">blunt force trauma<\/a> leading to spinal cord injuries, as well as the most common type of <strong>personal injury cases<\/strong>. You may be able to sue another driver for your injuries if their activities caused the car accident. You are entitled to compensation to pay your medical bills, missed wages, and other damages.<\/p><h3>Medical Malpractice\u00a0<\/h3><p>Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider, through omission or negligence, causes harm to a patient. Some types of malpractice that could result in a spinal cord injury include performing an unnecessary procedure, a critical error made during surgery, failure to recognize and identify an injury or illness, insufficient pre or post-operative care, and failure to inform you of the risks associated with surgery.<\/p><h3>Product Liability\u00a0<\/h3><p>Certain products may cause harm to the user due to manufacturing flaws. A malfunction could cause physical harm if a manufacturer intentionally offers a defective product, such as an automobile part or a kitchen appliance.\u00a0<\/p><h3>Premises Liability<\/h3><p>The owner of a home or commercial property is responsible for keeping the area safe for visitors. Unfortunately, a lack of frequent maintenance or poor repairs might result in harmful situations that can lead to a premises liability lawsuit. Spinal cord injuries can occur in a variety of ways, including faulty elevators or escalators, damaged staircases, missing handrails, wet\/slippery floors, loose rugs\/carpeting, cracked or uneven sidewalks, and potholes in a parking lot. Call <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/premises-liability\/\">Bossier City premises liability lawyer<\/a> Michael J. Vergis to learn more about these types of cases.<\/p><h3>Workplace Accidents<\/h3><p>Workplace hazards are unavoidable at times. You could injure your spinal cord whether you work in an office or on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/construction-accident\/\">construction site<\/a>. Some examples of common industrial incidents that might result in a spinal cord injury include a fall from heights, faulty machinery or equipment, assault, electric shock, a task requiring repetitive motions, or a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/slip-and-fall-accident\/\">slip and fall<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p><h3>Nursing Home Negligence Cases<\/h3><p>Nursing home residents are vulnerable to a variety of forms of abuse, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/criminal-defense\/assault-and-battery-lawyer\/\">physical assault<\/a>. If a staff member or even another patient kicks, punches, shoves, or physically assaults someone, the spinal cord may be injured. In these types of unfortunate cases, our <strong>Shreveport personal injury attorneys<\/strong> are ready to hold the abusers accountable and achieve compensation for the resident\u2019s pain and suffering.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e88adf9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e88adf9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-bossier-city-shreveport.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-602\" alt=\"spinal cord injury lawyer bossier city shreveport\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-bossier-city-shreveport.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-bossier-city-shreveport-800x432.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-bossier-city-shreveport-1200x648.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-bossier-city-shreveport-768x415.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-bossier-city-shreveport-1536x829.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-bossier-city-shreveport-18x10.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-73ce194 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"73ce194\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>Back and Spinal Cord Injury Treatment<\/h2><p>Due to the severe nature of a spinal cord injury, medical expenses typically reach outrageous heights. Take into account the fact that emergency medical assistance is likely required at the scene of the accident, wherever that may be and however the injury may have occurred. From there, you\u2019re looking at ambulance fees, emergency (sometimes life-saving) care, surgery, multiple overnight hospital stays, medication, medical equipment, physical therapy, and much more.\u00a0<\/p><p>On top of that, while the injury victim is recovering, they more than likely won\u2019t be able to work and retain their regular wages. Sometimes, even after a person has reached maximum recovery, they still won\u2019t be able to return to work or at least pick back up their typical job duties. With all of this in mind, <strong>spinal cord injuries<\/strong> can severely limit a victim\u2019s ability to work, socialize, and pay for necessary medical treatment.\u00a0<\/p><p>This is why we stress the importance of obtaining help from an <strong>experienced personal injury law firm<\/strong>. For all the years that he has practiced law, <strong>Shreveport-Bossier personal injury attorney<\/strong> Michael J. Vergis has been committed to holding negligent parties responsible for his client\u2019s injuries. If you or a loved one has suffered serious back injuries, neck injuries, or spinal cord damage and need compensation to recuperate, the <strong>legal professionals at the Law Offices of Michael J. Vergis<\/strong> may be able to assist you in <strong>filing a personal injury case<\/strong> against the liable party.\u00a0<\/p><h2>What Damages Can You Recover for a Back or Spinal Cord Injury?<\/h2><p>In the aftermath of a major back or spinal cord injury, compensation from the at-fault party may be the only way to achieve financial security and pay off medical expenses. Depending on the severity of the injury, the average lifetime cost of a spinal cord injury ranges from $1.5 million to more than $4.8 million. Unfortunately, the typical injury victim does not have millions of dollars to spend on medical treatment and accommodations for their disability.<\/p><p>Each <strong>personal injury accident case<\/strong> is different, so it is impossible to predict the damages you may be entitled to. However, an <strong>experienced personal injury trial attorney<\/strong> like Michael J. Vergis can help determine the losses and damages you have experienced as a result of the accident and fight to help you obtain them. The following are the most common types of damages that victims receive:<\/p><h3>Medical Costs\u00a0<\/h3><p>Medical bills are the most costly aspect of a spinal cord injury. Regular appointments, rehabilitation and therapy sessions, medical devices, prescriptions, live-in nursing care, and surgical operations are all examples of medical costs.<\/p><h3>Costs of Disability<\/h3><p>You may be entitled to recover for related expenses if your spinal cord injury resulted in a lifelong disability. To accommodate your impairment, you may need to pay for a new wheelchair-friendly car or house improvements.<\/p><h3>Diminished Earnings Capacity<\/h3><p>You could lose your job if you have paraplegia, tetraplegia, or another type of spinal cord damage. You may be eligible to recoup the costs of your lost wages during the initial period following your injury, as well as future lost earning capability due to a disability.<\/p><h3>Emotional Trauma<\/h3><p>It\u2019s a life-changing experience to lose your ability to walk, run, pick up your children, or eat on your own. Intangible losses resulting from your injuries, such as emotional distress, lost enjoyment of life, and psychological suffering, may be recoverable.\u00a0<\/p><h3>Compensation for Property Damage<\/h3><p>If the accident that caused your injury also resulted in property damage, such as a wrecked vehicle, you may be entitled to compensation for the cost of repairing or replacing the damaged item.<\/p><h3>Wrongful Death<\/h3><p>If a spinal cord injury leads to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/personal-injury\/wrongful-death-attorney\/\">wrongful death<\/a>, the victim\u2019s family may be entitled to sue the responsible party. In some circumstances, the victim\u2019s family may be entitled to compensation for their loved one\u2019s agony and suffering, as well as money to help with the financial burden left by their loved one\u2019s absence.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-020b3d2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"020b3d2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"432\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-near-me-1200x648.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-604\" alt=\"spinal cord injury lawyer near me\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-near-me-1200x648.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-near-me-800x432.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-near-me-768x415.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-near-me-1536x829.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-near-me-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spinal-cord-injury-lawyer-near-me.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f762f61 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f762f61\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>How Much is a Back Injury Settlement Worth?<\/h2><p>The average annual expense of treating a spinal injury is from $15,000 to $30,000. The lifetime expenditures are estimated to be in excess of $3 million. This is a significant expenditure for anyone to bear, and insurance will only cover a portion of it.\u00a0<\/p><p>For many people facing a difficult future without the financial assistance they need and deserve, this can be a grim image. There is, however, reason to be optimistic. With the guidance of an <strong>experienced spinal cord injury lawyer<\/strong>, you may be able to file a claim against the person or entity that caused your damage.<\/p><p><strong>Compensation for a spinal cord injury<\/strong> may be enough to compensate for all of your losses in the past and in the future. A serious and permanently crippling spine injury often results in a settlement of more than $1 million. Less significant back injuries (such as slipped or herniated disks, whiplash, back sprains, etc.) will, on average, result in lesser settlements.<\/p><h2>Why Do I Need a Lawyer for my Back Injury?<\/h2><p>Adjusters for insurance companies are used to dealing with catastrophic injury sufferers and are aware of the high costs and difficulties of living with permanent spinal damage. Insurance companies use a variety of strategies to limit their exposure to these costly claims, such as denying that their insured caused the accident, blaming the accident on the victim, or contesting the medical evidence proving the nature of the damage. Insurers may strive to settle a claim quickly before the true costs are discovered, or they may fight a full and fair payout. A <strong>spinal cord injury attorney<\/strong> can help you navigate this complicated process.\u00a0<\/p><h2>Laws That May Impact Your Claim<\/h2><p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/blog\/louisianas-statute-of-limitations\/\">Louisiana statute of limitations<\/a> is one of the most important laws to be aware of for <strong>personal injury claims<\/strong>. Louisiana\u2019s Civil Code stipulates that you have one year from the date of the accident to initiate a case. An <strong>experienced spinal injury lawyer<\/strong> can help you stay aware of this law and any others that impact your claim. Louisiana also follows the comparative negligence rule. This means that if you are judged to be partially at fault for the accident, the amount of money you can recover will be lowered by the percentage of fault you have. For example, if you are awarded $100,000 in damages for an accident and are found to be 10% at blame, your damages will be reduced by $10,000.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5638e08 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"5638e08\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/personal-injury-attorney-shreveport.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-603\" alt=\"personal injury attorney shreveport\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/personal-injury-attorney-shreveport.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/personal-injury-attorney-shreveport-800x432.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/personal-injury-attorney-shreveport-1200x648.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/personal-injury-attorney-shreveport-768x415.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/personal-injury-attorney-shreveport-1536x829.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mjvergis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/personal-injury-attorney-shreveport-18x10.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d167c48 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d167c48\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>Request a Free Case Evaluation from a Back and Spinal Cord Injury Lawyer in Shreveport and Bossier City<\/h2><p>If you or a loved one has suffered a <strong>spinal cord injury<\/strong> as a result of someone else\u2019s carelessness, you may be entitled to financial compensation.
