Are there any financial damages that I can receive that are unique to spinal cord injuries?
Not really. The types of money damages that you can recover are usually the same in any type of personal injury claim. The amount of recovery can, however, vary greatly, depending on the facts of the accident that caused your injury and the seriousness of the injury.
If your spinal cord injury occurred during a car accident or an accident at work, you may be entitled to recover the cost of your medical treatment, lost wages, and other damages related to your injury. Spinal cord injuries, depending upon their severity and the length of time required for maximum recovery, can result in enormous medical bills. The costs of emergency treatment, medical examinations, surgeries, therapy, rehabilitation devices, and prescription drugs can add up quickly. To compound the situation, spinal cord injuries frequently limit or eliminate the ability of the individual to work. Loss of income, physical pain, and bills can lead to further problems, including depression, physical symptoms and psychological trauma that often accompany spinal cord injuries, such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), phobias or other anxiety disorders. |
