You Will Need Compensation to Cover the Medical Costs

At the Tindall Law Firm, LLC, we help injury victims in Connecticut recover the damages they need to pay for their medical care. As an experienced injury attorney, Tavis Tindall works with trusted doctors and other experts when building cases for compensation.

Neck Injuries, Back Injuries and Paralysis

Many neck and back injuries are the result of injuries to the spinal vertebrae, disks or nerves. Disk injuries, including herniation, ruptures and compression, may require neck and back surgery such as artificial disk replacement, diskectomy and laminectomy. These painful and risky surgeries typically require lengthy recovery periods and often leave the patient with a lifetime of pain.
Injuries to the nerves in the spinal cord are often even more serious and can result in the following conditions:

Chronic pain
Loss of sensation below the point of injury
Paralysis
Paraplegia
Quadriplegia

In the most severe spinal cord injuries, cerebral hemorrhage, stroke, blood clots, organ failure and seizures can lead to wrongful death.
Spinal injuries may result in temporary or permanent disability. Some people need lifelong medical care from specialists as well as daily help from family or other caregivers. The medical expenses can include surgeries, long-term care, rehabilitation, pain management, psychological therapy, medical equipment and costs for modifications to homes and vehicles. We will work hard to recover the compensation you need to pay medical bills and compensate for lost income.
