Two types of injuries can rightly be considered “catastrophic”: brain injuries and spinal cord injuries. A catastrophic injury will have the most severe and long-term consequences, affect the most areas of life (work life, home life, recreation), and pose the most difficulties to full recovery. For an excellent resource regarding spinal cord injuries, click here. An experienced Indianapolis spinal cord injury lawyer from the law office of William W. Hurst is well aware of all the possible spinal cord injuries and their consequences.
If your loved one suffered a spinal cord injury, it will be important to have the financial resources to ensure they get good medical care, extended rehabilitation services and, in the worst case, lifelong home care and adaptive equipment. If the spinal cord injury was the result of a negligently caused accident, you may be able to get financial compensation through a personal injury claim. An experienced Indianapolis spinal cord injury lawyer can help you obtain this compensation.

How an Indianapolis Spinal Cord Injury Lawyer Can Help after a Spinal Cord Injury
An experienced Indianapolis spinal cord injury lawyer is crucial when these types of injuries occur. The attorneys at our office have more than 35 years of experience and track record of aggressive representation in negotiations and in trial. That experience, coupled with a network of investigative professionals and medical experts, enable us to achieve very favorable settlements and verdicts for our injured clients.
We have handled hundreds of spinal cord injury cases in which clients suffered partial or full paralysis (paraplegia or quadriplegia) because of damage to vertebrae and nerves. We have also worked with clients who experience numbness, lack of sensation, or weakness in the limbs. Back injuries can cause ruptured discs, or bulging or herniated discs, leading to chronic back pain.
While everyone — including juries — considers paralysis to be the most debilitating spinal cord injury, we know that chronic pain from disc injury or degenerative disc disease can truly make life a nightmare. Excruciating, chronic pain causes sleep disturbance, limits mobility, makes work impossible, and can contribute to drug and alcohol abuse as the injured person looks for any means available to numb the pain.
