Spinal Cord Injuries

Red Bank NJ Spinal Cord Injury Attorneys   

Accidents that cause Paraplegia and Quadriplegia

Most spinal cord injuries result in short-term or long-term disability, requiring on-going medical treatment or care, especially if complications arise. As a result, it’s important to accurately quantify the cost of a spinal cord injury when settling a personal injury claim after a serious accident. At the personal injury law office of Drazin & Warshaw, P.C., our attorneys work closely with medical economists and life care planners in projecting costs associated with spinal injuries over the course of a person’s life. Using cost data available from the insurance and health care industries, we consider costs associated with hospitalizations, surgery, rehabilitation, medical equipment, in-home care, and lost wages.
