Law Offices of Shane L. Harward PLC, has sought compensation for clients who have suffered spinal cord and brain injuries. If the intentional or careless act of another has caused you paralysis or other impairment related to spinal cord injury or a brain injury, contact us.

Spinal Cord Injury

The spinal cord connects the brain to the body. The spinal cord transmits signals for sensations and to control movement. Thus, an injury to the spinal cord can have a devastating effect on the injured person. A spinal cord injury can cause paralysis or loss of control of the bladder and bowels or body temperature regulation. Recovery from a spinal cord injury can take years.

The majority of spinal cord injuries are caused by car accidents. However, spinal cord injuries can occur on the job or during a sports activity.

Due to the severe and permanent nature of a spinal cord injury, in bringing a claim for such an injury based on the fault or wrongdoing of another, it is imperative to retain the services of an accomplished attorney and competent physician. While these professionals may not be able to alleviate an individual's pain or loss of body functioning, they can obtain the optimal financial recovery to which an injured individual may be entitled, and access to the most current medical advances.

Brain Injury

Brain injuries can be caused by falls, car accidents or sport-related activities. Trauma to the head or neck region can cause the brain to bruise, bleed, tear, and/or swell. There are two general types of head injuries, open or closed. An open injury means the skull has been fractured, while a closed head injury does not involve a fracture. Both types of brain injury can cause paralysis, loss of vital body functions and death.

Indications of a injury to the brain are memory loss, irritability and a change in personality. The loss of brain function can be frustrating and painful for the injured person.
