ROSENBERG LAW, PENNSYLVANIA & NEW JERSEY SPINAL CORD INJURY LAWYERS

In the United States, there are an estimated 12,500 new cases of spinal cord injuries per year, and an estimated 276,000 existing cases *(NSCISC). Over half of those injuries affect people between the ages of 16 to 30, causing a lifetime of pain and complications. Because your spinal cord sends information from your brain to the rest of the body, any kind of spinal cord injury can cause paralysis, nerve damage, severe pain, movement difficulty, and even death.

Spinal cord injuries (SCIs) are among the most severe and life-altering types of trauma, often resulting in permanent changes to strength, sensation, and bodily function below the site of the injury. These injuries typically occur from sudden blows to the spine during events like car accidents, falls, sports injuries, or acts of violence. Depending on the location and severity of the damage, spinal cord injuries can lead to partial or complete paralysis—categorized as either paraplegia (paralysis of the lower body) or quadriplegia (paralysis of all four limbs). Beyond physical limitations, individuals with SCIs often face complications such as loss of bladder and bowel control, respiratory difficulties, chronic pain, and increased vulnerability to infections.

Recovery from a spinal cord injury is complex and varies greatly from person to person. While some may regain limited function through rehabilitation and medical intervention, others may require lifelong care and assistive technologies such as wheelchairs or ventilators. In addition to the physical challenges, spinal cord injuries can have a profound emotional and psychological impact, leading to depression, anxiety, and changes in social or occupational roles. Effective treatment involves a multidisciplinary approach, including emergency care, surgery, physical therapy, counseling, and long-term support systems to improve quality of life and maximize independence for those affected.
