Schedule a Free ConsultationHow Someone Else’s Carelessness Causes Spinal Cord Injuries
When our Idaho lawyers investigate a spinal cord injury case, we often uncover mistakes made by another party that directly caused the accident and injuries. Some of the ways we see one party’s negligence lead to another’s life-altering injuries include:
- Traffic accidents, such as collisions, truck crashes, and motorcycle accidents
- Bicycle and pedestrian collisions
- Premises liability accidents, including slip and fall injuries and pool accidents
- Construction accidents, such as falls from ladders and scaffolding
When someone’s negligence causes a spinal cord injury, the at-fault party is often legally responsible for the injuries and damages suffered. Our attorneys represent the injured party and file a personal injury claim or lawsuit to recover fair compensation.
Proving fault in these accident cases generally requires showing the following:
- The other party failed to act with reasonable care
- Their action or inaction directly caused the injury
- Our client suffered quantifiable harm because of the other party’s negligence
How Our Attorneys Build a Convincing Case for Compensation Based on a Spinal Cord Injury Accident
When you trust our team with your case, we will investigate your injury accident thoroughly. We uncover and preserve evidence, consult with medical and financial experts, assess your prognosis and care needs, and analyze insurance policies to determine your options.
Our goals include establishing liability by documenting the elements of negligence and showing how the at-fault party’s behavior directly caused your spinal cord injury. This is essential to compelling their insurer to pay a fair settlement or convincing the jury you deserve a payout at trial.
We also document your current and future damages, using the fair settlement range we establish to negotiate with insurance companies or take the case to trial if necessary.
