Brooklyn Incomplete Injuries

Just like a brain injury, a spinal cord injury is one of the most serious types of injuries that a victim can suffer. A spinal cord injury is defined as some sort of trauma to the spinal cord that cuts, bruises, or in some other way damages the spinal cord. There are complete spinal cord injuries and incomplete spinal cord injuries. A “complete” spinal cord injury is an injury that leaves the victim with the complete loss of function below the point of the injury, while an “incomplete” injury refers to a spinal cord injury that leaves the victim with some feeling or movement below the point of injury. Many incomplete spinal cord injuries are caused by trauma from accidents such as from a car accident, motorcycle accident, construction accident, slip and fall accident, truck accident or from a sports injury. In other cases the injury is suffered in an act of medical malpractice. Victims of spinal cord injuries typically suffer financially as they have to face substantial medical bills while they are unable to go to work. However, New York law allows those injured due to the negligence of another person or entity to seek damages from that person. If you sustained an incomplete spinal cord injury due to the negligence or intentional act of another person or entity, contact an experienced Brooklyn Incomplete Injuries Lawyer who will review the facts of your case and explain to you the process for file a personal injury claim in order to pursue compensation from those responsible for your injuries.
