One of the scariest things to hear is that your doctor does not expect your condition to improve. Sadly, this is often the case with spinal cord injuries. While there are options to help make your life more comfortable, currently, there is no cure for paralysis.
In most cases, a diagnosis of permanent injury will have a substantial impact on a personal injury case, because it requires an attorney to estimate a client’s future financial needs for the remainder of the client’s life. This requires a careful analysis of the client’s lifetime medical needs, costs of essential services, and—perhaps most importantly—an assessment of the impact on the client’s quality of life. This is rarely a straightforward calculation, which is why it is important to retain the services of an experienced Philadelphia spinal cord injury attorney to represent you in a spinal cord injury case.
