Spinal Cord Injuries
We take our bodies for granted… that is, until our bodies are broken
For the majority of us, it is impossible to fathom what life might be like without the use of our limbs. Loss of movement, bowel and bladder control never cross our minds. Pain from nerve damage, difficulty breathing, coughing and clearing mucus from the lungs, and changes in sexual sensitivity are foreign concepts, only thought about in the abstract. We are the lucky ones. For the estimated 273,000 people in the U.S. with Spinal Cord Injury (SCI), taking a normally functioning body for granted is not an option.
Estimates published by the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center state that 12,000 new cases of spinal cord injury occur in our country each year. The common causes of SCI include:
- Motor Vehicle (36.5%)
- Falls (28.5%)
- Violence (14.3%)
- Sports (9.2%)
If you or a loved one has been a victim of negligence, a defective or dangerous product or medical malpractice resulting in a serious spinal cord injury, please contact the Eshelman Legal Group immediately for a free consultation. Once we determine that you have a case, we will work diligently to get you the highest level of compensation we possibly can.
We understand the devastation spinal cord injuries can bring to an individual’s life. The endless pain and suffering, loss of income, life time medical bills and cost of assistive devices and modifications to the home. And, that doesn’t even include the emotional toll an injury of this severity takes not only on the victim, but on their family as well. Let our dedicated, professional staff give you the compassionate and aggressive representation you need and deserve.

The Conclusion
The attorneys at the Eshelman Legal Group understand that no matter how cautious you are, others may not be so careful, and accidents do happen.

Ask yourself this question… who does the adjuster work for? The adjuster works for the insurance company, they do not work for you.
In all matters involving personal injury it is essential that measures be taken promptly to preserve evidence, investigate the accident in question, and file a lawsuit prior to the deadline imposed by the Statute of Limitations. If you or a loved one is a victim of personal injuries, call Eshelman Legal Group LLC, now at 1-800-365-0001. The initial consultation is free of charge, and if we agree to accept your case, we will work on a Contingent Fee basis, which means we get paid for our services only if there is a monetary award or recovery of funds. Don’t delay! You may have a valid claim and be entitled to compensation for your injuries, but a lawsuit must be filed before the statute of limitations expires. The above is not legal advice. That can only come from a qualified attorney who is familiar with all the facts and circumstances of a particular, specific case and the relevant law. See Terms of Use.
