Philadelphia County Back Injury Attorney

BACK TO ARTICLES

Our Philadelphia County back injury lawyers help victims recover compensation for spinal damage, chronic pain, and accident-related disabilities.

Back injuries are among the most common — and most debilitating — consequences of serious accidents. Whether caused by a car crash, workplace accident, or slip and fall, these injuries can lead to long-term pain, limited mobility, and costly medical care.

At Wilk Law Firm, our Philadelphia County back injury attorneys fight to protect the rights of individuals suffering from spinal trauma. We understand how these injuries affect every aspect of your life — from your ability to work to your quality of life — and we’re committed to securing the compensation you need to move forward.

Common Causes of Back Injuries

Back and spinal injuries can occur in a variety of circumstances, often due to someone else’s negligence. Common causes include:

  • Motor vehicle accidents (rear-end, head-on, or high-impact collisions)
  • Slip, trip, and fall accidents on unsafe property
  • Workplace accidents, especially in construction or warehouse settings
  • Falling objects or heavy lifting
  • Sports or recreational accidents
  • Acts of violence or assault

Our team investigates the cause of your injury thoroughly, collecting evidence and working with medical experts to prove fault and secure fair compensation.

Types of Back and Spinal Injuries

Back injuries range from temporary pain to life-altering conditions. At Wilk Law Firm, we handle cases involving:

  • Herniated or bulging discs
  • Fractured vertebrae
  • Spinal cord damage or paralysis
  • Nerve compression injuries
  • Chronic lower back pain
  • Soft tissue damage and muscle strain
  • Degenerative disc injuries worsened by trauma

Even a seemingly minor injury can lead to ongoing pain and mobility issues — which is why it’s critical to seek both medical attention and legal representation.

Compensation for Back Injury Victims

Victims of back injuries often face significant physical limitations and financial strain. You may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Medical expenses (including surgery, therapy, and rehabilitation)
  • Lost wages and loss of future earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Permanent disability or limited mobility
  • Home modifications and assistive devices
  • Emotional distress and reduced quality of life

Our attorneys fight to ensure your compensation reflects not just short-term costs, but the long-term impact of your injury.

Proving Liability in a Back Injury Case

Establishing fault is a crucial part of your case. Our Philadelphia County back injury lawyers work to show that another party’s negligence directly caused your injuries. This may involve:

  • Reviewing accident reports and witness statements
  • Collecting medical records and expert opinions
  • Analyzing property conditions or vehicle data
  • Negotiating with insurance companies

We build strong cases designed to withstand insurance pushback and, if necessary, succeed at trial.
