Personal Injury

Many of us take our health for granted. When injury strikes, your life can be seriously affected. Loss of income from the resulting disability, mounting bills and expenses, and uncertainty about where to find qualified doctors to care for your injuries are all issues you can suddenly confront when you are injured. Most important of all, the quality of your life and ability to pursue your chosen occupation may be permanently impaired.

Personal injury is defined as injury to one's physical body, emotions or mind. When a victim of personal injury consults with an attorney, they will be informed of the two elements involved in all personal injury cases - liability and damages. Please contact our personal injury lawyers who represent victims in the San Diego, California area to learn more about the elements involved in personal injury suits.

It is very important for victims who want to file a personal injury lawsuit to keep track of the time of their injury. There is a statute of limitations that must be followed.

Spinal Cord Injury Lawyers

The spinal cord is the body of nerves that carries messages from the brain to the body. The spinal cord is enclosed in the spinal column, which is composed of bony rings, or "vertebra." The position of spinal cord injury along the spinal column dictates where in the body effects will be felt. Damage to the top or "cervical section" of the spinal cord often results in quadriplegia. Damage to the middle "thoracic" section may cause paraplegia, and damage to the lower lumbar or sacral nerves can decrease function in the legs and hips.

Spinal cord injuries affect men more than women (men sustain roughly 80% of all spinal cord injuries) and occur most frequently in people between the ages of 16 and 30. The leading cause of spinal cord injury in the U.S. is auto accidents. Other causes are falls, violence, sports injuries, workplace injuries, and diseases. Although immediate treatment and rehabilitation have increased the life expectancy of most patients, a spinal cord injury are still likely to have a dramatic effect on the injured person's life.

Brain Injury Lawyers

Brain injury is most often caused by a severe impact to the head, and it can result in lasting physical and mental problems. Emotional trauma often affects both victims and their loved ones. Because brain injury is most often caused by accidents, they are often the fault of someone other than the victim. Car accidents are the most common cause of brain injury. Other causes include falls, violence, and sports injuries. Brain injury can also occur due to oxygen deprivation during birth. While people with minor head injuries often make full recoveries, people with more serious brain injury often face permanent disability or death. Many brain injury patients require long-term rehabilitation beyond their initial medical care. Some may never be able to work again.
