Depending on the circumstances surrounding your specific situation, you may have the ability to file a personal injury lawsuit to help cover the expenses and losses you’ve experienced as a result of your paralysis. However, you may only have a viable case if someone else is to blame for your paralysis. If you were born with a defect, acquire a medical condition, or are at fault for an accident that led to your paralysis, you will not have a solid case. However, if someone else caused the accident that paralyzed you, you likely have a suitable claim against that person or entity.
