Protecting Your Rights After Spinal Injuries
Last updated on February 4, 2025
A spinal injury is a life-altering event that affects not only you but also your loved ones. The consequences of such an injury can limit your ability to work, your ability to move around and even your ability to sit comfortably. The consequences of a spinal injury can last a lifetime, and it is important that the compensation from your injury claim reflects those consequences.
My name is Michael Maurer, and I am a North Carolina attorney dedicated to serving the Charlotte and Raleigh communities through my personal injury law practice. At my Cornelius and Cary offices of Maurer Law, I understand the complexities and challenges you face after a spinal injury. I am committed to guiding you through every step of your recovery and legal process to secure the compensation you deserve.
The Path To Recovery With Spinal Injury Treatments
Recovering from a spinal injury involves a comprehensive approach to treatment and rehabilitation. After the immediate care you receive to stabilize your condition, there is still a long road ahead to adapt to the needs of any new conditions. For many spinal injury victims, recovery means physical therapy, assistive devices and emerging treatments that can enhance rehabilitation. These necessary treatments can be expensive, making it crucial to pursue legal action to obtain the compensation needed to cover these costs.
The Role Of An Attorney In Spinal Injury Cases
After suffering in an accident that caused you to suffer a spine injury, one of the first people you should reach out to is a personal injury attorney. I understand the complexities of these claims and how to find a swift and effective resolution to them. As your spinal injury lawyer, I am proud to take on the work of building your claim by gathering evidence of liability in the accident and proof of the extent of your injuries through medical reports, expert witness consultations and other supporting information.
With these tools, I can better negotiate for fair compensation that covers both the initial consequences of your injuries and the future costs of your recovery. Your compensation should reflect your medical consequences, lost income, loss of earning potential, and renovation or relocation expenses to accommodate your injuries.
