About Spine Injury
Approximately 250,000 – 400,000 individuals in the United States have spinal cord injuries. Every year, approximately 11,000 people sustain new spinal cord injuries – that’s thirty new injuries every day. Most of these people are injured in auto and sports accidents, falls, and industrial mishaps. An estimated 60 percent of these individuals are 30 years old or younger, and the majority of them are men.
Since many spine injuries result from accidents, seeking legal advise is an important part of recovery and resources. Be sure the lawyer you choose is trained and experienced to handle your case.
