San Jose Spinal Cord Injury Attorney

Representing the Victims of Spinal Cord Injuries

The nerves in the spinal column transmit communications from the brain to various parts of the body and from the limbs and organs to the brain. When the nerve communication is damaged or broken through an injury to the spinal column and the nerve bundle within it, sensations of pressure, pain, hunger and other vital messages may be partially or totally unable to reach the brain.  Commands to muscles to move may not go through, limiting or completely preventing motion. 

In some cases, nerve injury can be repaired through surgical procedures. Unfortunately, in very serious spinal cord injuries often surgery is either ineffective or not an option, leaving the victim partially or wholly paralyzed. This kind of an injury has a devastating effect on the injured person and the entire family. If your family is in this situation, talk to a San Jose personal injury lawyer at The Dunnion law Firm and find out what can be done about it. Our legal team is prepared to take immediate action to help spinal injury victims.

Spinal Cord Injury Lawyer in San Jose

A variety of types of accidents can cause a severe spinal cord injury, such as a car crash, slip and fall, work accident, product defect accident, or premises liability accident. Accidents generally result from some kind of reckless conduct or negligence. Where this is the case, personal injury law holds the negligent party financially responsible to provide the compensation needed to restore the injured person to his or her former condition. When the injury results in permanent disability, the negligent party is held responsible to provide for the future well-being of the victim as well. These cases are often complex and require enormous skill and resources to see them through to a successful conclusion. 

A spinal cord injury lawyer with our firm has the expertise to prepare a compelling case and the dedication to see it through complex negotiations or a lengthy trial to a successful conclusion. Every member of our legal team is thoroughly committed to achieving justice for an injured client. Our goal is always to win on behalf of our clients. The compensation received can't replace abilities which have been lost, but it can pay for the necessities of life and make it possible to have the best quality of life possible after such an injury.
