The spinal cord is one of the most important parts of the human body. This system transmits signals between the brain and the rest of the body. So, when this spinal cord is damaged, it can be devastating and lead to many serious health problems, including paralysis. Paralysis is the loss of the ability to move in parts, or all, of the body. Paralysis can be financially burdensome to victims who have suffered this injury, but with the help of a trusted attorney, individuals can recover compensation to help ensure they can pay for losses relating to their injury.
At the Law Office of Cohen & Jaffe, LLP our experienced lawyers have over 100 years of combined experience providing legal services to clients who have suffered paralysis as a result of an accident. If you were paralyzed due to a personal injury accident caused by a negligent party in New York, our team of legal professionals can help you avoid financial hardship by building a strong claim to get the fair compensation you deserve.
Understanding the Financial Burden Paralysis Can Cause
When a person is paralyzed after an accident like a slip-and-fall or car crash, the injury can completely alter their life in a matter of moments. With so much immediate change, many victims of accidents that suffer paralysis find themselves facing costly expenses related to their injuries.
One of the most significant expenses associated with paralysis is the cost of medical care. Paralysis can lead to a variety of medical and health complications for victims. As a result of these complications, the necessary treatments to help individuals recover can be highly costly. In addition to the cost of medical treatment, people with paralysis may also need to purchase assistive devices like wheelchairs and home modifications to live independently. If an individual chooses to have family members care for them once they are able to go home, the cost of caregiving can also be a financial burden for families and loved ones.
If you or a loved one have suffered financial burden due to paralysis, you do not have to go through this alone. A trusted attorney can help you understand your legal options to help you get the fair compensation you deserve for your losses.
How Can an Attorney Help After Paralysis Has Led to Financial Burden?
