Berks County Spinal Cord Injury Attorney

BACK TO ARTICLES

Our Berks County spinal cord injury lawyers fight for victims of paralysis, nerve damage, and catastrophic spinal trauma caused by negligence.

A spinal cord injury is one of the most life-altering injuries a person can experience. These injuries often lead to permanent paralysis, chronic pain, or loss of independence. At Wilk Law Firm, our Berks County spinal cord injury attorneys understand the physical, emotional, and financial toll these injuries take. We’re dedicated to fighting for victims and their families to secure the compensation and justice they deserve.

Common Causes of Spinal Cord Injuries in Berks County

Spinal cord injuries can occur in an instant but have lifelong consequences. Many are caused by another party’s negligence or recklessness. The most common causes include:

  • Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents
  • Slip and fall or trip and fall incidents
  • Workplace and construction accidents
  • Acts of violence or assault
  • Sports or recreational injuries
  • Medical malpractice or surgical negligence

Our team investigates each case thoroughly to determine fault and hold all responsible parties accountable.

Types of Spinal Cord Injuries We Handle

The impact of a spinal cord injury depends on the type and location of the damage. Our Berks County spinal cord injury lawyers handle cases involving:

  • Complete spinal cord injuries, leading to full paralysis
  • Incomplete spinal cord injuries, with partial function or sensation
  • Quadriplegia (tetraplegia) — paralysis in all four limbs
  • Paraplegia — paralysis in the lower half of the body
  • Fractured vertebrae or dislocation
  • Nerve compression or spinal trauma
  • Spinal cord contusions or hemorrhaging

We work with top medical experts to assess the extent of your injuries and ensure your claim reflects your full physical and emotional suffering.

The Long-Term Effects of Spinal Cord Injuries

Spinal cord injuries often result in long-term or permanent disabilities. Victims may experience:

  • Loss of movement or sensation below the injury site
  • Chronic pain or muscle spasms
  • Respiratory or digestive complications
  • Loss of bladder or bowel control
  • Emotional distress and depression
  • Dependency on mobility devices or long-term care

At Wilk Law Firm, we understand these challenges extend far beyond medical bills — they affect every aspect of your daily life.
