Back and Neck Injury

Banner Legal > Back and Neck Injury

Back and neck injury are among the most common reasons for doctor visits. Because the spine carries a huge concentration of nerves, damage to the neck or back can have disastrous effects, ranging from chronic pain to paralysis and even death. More serious back and neck injuries are usually the result of traumatic events, like car accidents , slip and fall accidents, medical malpractice , and more.

If you or a loved one has suffered a neck or back injury as a result of a vehicle accident, an accident on someone else’s property, at the hands of a physician, or similar circumstance, you may be entitled to seek compensation for your suffering . Please contact us today to speak with an experienced personal injury attorney free of charge.

Common Back and Neck Injuries

The back and neck are susceptible to various types of injuries, including muscle strains, bone fractures, ligament tears, and nerve damage. Some of the more common back and neck injuries are:

  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Whiplash
  • Slipped or herniated discs
  • Compression fractures
  • Sciatica

When such injuries occur as the result of the negligence or wrongdoing of another party, the victim has a legal right to hold the liable party responsible.
