Spinal Cord Injury Lawyer Baton Rouge, LA
Many spinal cord injuries are treatable, with surgery, physical therapy, and a combination of personalized treatments from specialists. But, this treatment may take months and include painful, invasive surgeries and frustrating physical and occupational therapy sessions. Even after your medical treatments conclude, you may still be in chronic pain and have limited mobility.
Some spinal cord injury victims aren’t so lucky. They may be partially or totally paralyzed, unable to care for themselves without assistance. Someone who once enjoyed an active lifestyle and promising career may be left unable to sustain gainful employment. It’s not just the victim of a spinal cord injury who loses. If they have a family who depends on them for care or to contribute financially to the home, being injured and unable to work (or forced to take a lower-paying job that accommodates their disability) can leave the family destitute. Add in sky-high medical bills, and you have what seems like insurmountable problems. You need a strong advocate to help you secure fair compensation for all your losses, and our Baton Rouge spinal cord injury lawyer is just the person to do so.
