Common Causes of Spinal Cord Injuries and Liability

Some of the most common causes of spinal cord injuries in the United States include sports accidents, accidentes de tráfico, workplace injuries, and slip and fall accidents. When these incidents happen due to the negligencia of one party, the victim can file a personal injury lawsuit to recover his or her losses. The plaintiff in a spinal cord injury lawsuit will need to prove that the defendant was negligent and breached a duty of care in the given situation. The plaintiff must also show that his or her losses were the direct result of the defendant’s actions and not some other cause. Lastly, the plaintiff must prove his or her damages. Damages in a spinal cord injury case can include:

• Gastos médicos, for the costs of immediate and long-term medical treatment required after a spinal cord injury.
• Pérdida de ingresos, for wages lost during recovery as well as lost future earnings if the victim cannot return to work.
• Daños materiales, if the defendant’s behavior also damaged or destroyed any of the plaintiff’s personal property.
• Dolor y sufrimiento, which compensates for the physical pain associated with an injury as well as the long-term psychological effects that can result from suffering a permanent disability after an accident.

Depending on the location and extent of a spinal cord injury, the victim may experience a range of possible permanent effects. A complete injury that severs the spinal cord will paralyze the victim’s body below the injury site. The nerve endings of the spinal cord will no longer transmit signals to the nerves below the injury, resulting in permanent loss of motor function and sensation. An incomplete injury may lead to a loss of function, a loss of motor control, a loss of sensation, or a combination of these symptoms.
