Paralysis Lawyer

San Francisco Spine Injury Attorney

When someone suffers a serious spinal injury leading to paraplegia or partial paralysis, the entire family is impacted. While the paraplegia may be overcome and the victim is able to walk again, a spinal injury is forever. Years of physical therapy, surgeries and social services may be required.

Free Consultation · No Attorney's Fees Unless You Win · Call Anytime

The attorneys of O'Reilly Collins have more than 40 years of experience fighting to protect the rights of individuals and families affected by paraplegia and other spinal injuries and back injuries suffered because of someone else's negligence. We understand the medical issues involved and what questions to investigate regarding complete medical care, loss of wages, changes in family life, and pain and suffering. We're successful trial attorneys, not medical experts. That's why we work with many of the top spinal specialists and neurologists in the region to present the medical evidence in a clear, precise way to the opposing insurance lawyers and jury, if a trial becomes necessary.

People With Paraplegia Live a Full Life

A severe spinal injury once meant a shortened life span. Doctors can now help a person with a severe spinal cord injury live to old age. The cost of medical care and treatment for the injury will continue for a lifetime. O'Reilly Collins attorneys also work with life care financial experts to determine the full amount of compensation the victim and family support members will need for a lifetime of care and expenses.

Did You Know?

Stem cell research and understanding vertebrae fractures can often help accident reconstruction experts understand what occurred during the crash. By examining the direction of force and the amount of impact, it is often possible to determine whether auto safety systems worked properly during an accident. If you were married at the time of your spine injury, your spouse is eligible to file for damages.
