The damage caused by a spinal cord injury can result in months to even years of medical treatment and rehabilitation. You may require neck or back surgery, spinal fusions, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and other medical treatment. Just the cost of the initial months in the hospital will amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills. The attorneys at the Fleming & Palermo law firm are dedicated to advocating for clients before the insurance companies and in the courtroom.

Recovering from the Physical and Financial Strains of a Spinal Cord Injury

A spinal cord injury that results in paralysis (such as paraplegia or quadriplegia) will permanently change your life as well as your family's life. Even after the extensive rehabilitative therapy, you must re-learn to manage simple tasks, such as brushing your teeth, dressing, or moving about with limited mobility. In addition, your family may be faced with the challenges of limited income.

Our law firm represents individuals who have been paralyzed in many types of accidents throughout Texas, including:

Your Advocate Before the Insurance Company and in the Courtroom

Our personal injury attorneys listen to your needs and concerns. We take on the burdens of a personal injury lawsuit to recover just compensation for your loss. Therefore, you can concentrate on your recovery, not deal with an overbearing insurance company.

Our law firm will use the necessary medical specialists and other experts to illustrate the extent of your injury and the future impact the spinal cord injury will have on your life. Additionally, we utilize experts to project future loss of earnings and place financial value to non-economic losses, such as pain and suffering.

The lawyers at our firm have persistent negotiation skills to help you recover a just settlement. However, we have the trial experience and determination needed to recover a favorable jury verdict when your interests are best served through trial.
