Back Injury Law

Have you recently suffered an accident in which you sustained a back or neck injury? Motor vehicle accidents, slips and falls, and assaults can result in different degrees of back injuries that may affect one’s life in many ways.

Worst of all, back injuries can be tricky to prove in courts of law for many reasons. If you’ve sustained severe back injuries or a neck injury in an accident caused by someone else’s negligence or recklessness, you may be entitled to monetary benefits in terms of compensation.

Neck And Back Damage

A back injury or damage to the neck can be caused by any number of injuries, including car accidents, sports injuries, slip and falls and even repetitive stress injuries from work.

Since the back is made up of so many bones and major muscles and is of such importance to the entire body’s functioning, even a minor injury to the back can have profound effects on every other system in the body. Disc damage, fractured vertebrae, and torn muscles can cause damage to muscles and nerves and affect mobility, control and senses.

A spinal cord injury can leave you with:

  • Difficulty or inability to do normal activities such as walking, bending, sitting and reaching
  • Difficulty or inability to lift
  • Inability to drive
  • Shooting pains, tingling or numbness in the extremities from muscle and nerve damage
  • Chronic headaches or other chronic pain
  • Stiffness
  • Need for rehabilitation, surgery or assistive devices

A neck injury or back injury can leave you with an inability to do your job, take care of your home and family, or do the same activities that you used to do. For active people or people who pride themselves on being self-sufficient, this can be devastating emotionally and leave you with psychological difficulties such as depression and anxiety.
