Spinal Cord Injury Lawyers
Spinal Cord Injuries Require Lifetime Care. We Fight for the Resources You Will Need.
Spinal cord injuries — paralysis, paraplegia, quadriplegia — transform every aspect of life. The medical, rehabilitation, and adaptive living costs are enormous and ongoing. Our attorneys work with life care planners, rehab specialists, and economists to quantify the full lifetime cost of the injury and pursue the compensation necessary to maintain independence, dignity, and quality of life.

Past and future medical care, rehabilitation, assistive equipment (wheelchairs, prosthetics), home and vehicle modifications, attendant care, lost income, reduced earning capacity, and pain and suffering. A life care plan built with medical experts quantifies these needs across your projected lifetime.
These are complex cases — we often wait for maximum medical improvement (MMI) before settlement so the full scope of the injury is known. That said, interim steps like medical funding and advances on settlement can be arranged to meet urgent needs.
New York's comparative negligence rules allow recovery even if you share some fault — your percentage of responsibility reduces the award but does not eliminate it. We build the strongest possible case on liability alongside the damages case.
