The causes of spinal cord injuries may be varied, but one thing that most of these injuries have in common is that spinal cord damage is extremely serious and, in some cases, completely life altering. If you have suffered a spinal cord injury because of someone else's negligence, such as in a car accident or act of medical malpractice, you deserve reliable and effective legal representation.

Permanent Paralysis and Loss of Mobility
In most cases, spinal cord damage is caused by a physical blow to the back or neck that is caused by a traumatic collision, such as with a semi-truck accident. According to the most recent data from the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center, the primary causes of spine injuries are:
- Car / Motor Vehicle Accidents: 37.3%
- Falls: 32.0%
- Acts of Violence (Gunshots/Assault): 15.5%
- Sports & Recreation: 7.7%
- Medical or Surgical Complications: 3.7%
However, spinal cord injuries can be caused by non-traumatic events as well, such as medical malpractice. A surgeon may accidentally sever a patient's spinal column while operating, or a doctor may fail to diagnose a disease or infection that causes irreparable damage to the spine.
No matter how your spine injury occurred, if it was caused by someone else's negligence you may have grounds to pursue damages. The Dallas spinal cord injury attorneys at Aldous Law are dedicated to providing you or your loved one with personalized representation. Our goal is to treat clients like family.
Lifetime Medical Care and Assistive Needs
A spinal cord injury creates a "new normal" that requires significant medical and environmental adjustments. Recovery is rarely a matter of weeks; it is a matter of years or a lifetime. Our team understands that victims often face:
- Ongoing Rehabilitation: Intensive physical and occupational therapy to maintain function.
- Assistive Technology: The need for wheelchairs, specialized vehicles, and advanced medical equipment.
- Home Modifications: Renovating living spaces to be accessible and functional.
- Long-Term Nursing Care: Assistance with daily living and the prevention of secondary medical complications.
We are trial lawyers; fighting in court is what we do best. We prioritize our clients’ future by ensuring that their long-term care plan is fully documented and defended against insurance companies looking to minimize their needs.
Compensation for Long-Term Disability and Support
If your spine injury was caused by negligence, you have the right to pursue damages that reflect the true cost of a permanent disability. At Aldous Law, we fight for the rights of our clients to secure compensation for:
- Past and Future Medical Expenses: From the initial emergency surgery to decades of follow-up care.
- Lost Earning Capacity: Compensation for the inability to return to work or a previous career.
- Pain and Suffering: Addressing both the physical pain and the emotional toll of losing one's mobility.
- Quality of Life: Seeking justice for the loss of enjoyment of activities you once loved.
