What You Need To Know About Spinal-Cord Injuries Laws In Wisconsin
If you’ve been involved in a spinal-cord injury, you need to know that the state of Wisconsin laws mandate that injuries and or trauma to the head and or spine automatically qualify for substantial financial recoveries.
Unlike other bodily injuries, the spine and head typically involve multiple, expensive surgeries that require leading medical experts. This means you may likely be entitled to a larger settlement.
In situations like this, spinal-cord injuries can leave you incapacitated; both physically and monetarily. In any injury involving the spine, I recommend that you contact me immediately to help you get the type of settlement you need to make a full recovery.

The Facts And Legalities Of Wisconsin Spinal-Cord Injuries
Each year it is estimated that over 1,700 Wisconsin residents experience spinal cord injuries. Common causes include auto accidents, roof collapse, diving accidents, seat belt malfunctions, industrial accidents, airbag injuries, bullet wounds, and boating accidents.
This is just a small glimpse of the accidents that can result in serious spinal cord injuries.
Common spinal-cord injuries involve damage to the spinal cord resulting in the loss of function, mobility or feeling.
These injuries are often the result of trauma or disease, and can also bring about permanent or temporary loss of sensation, chronic pain, paralysis, or loss of bladder and bowel control.
The spinal cord does not have to be completely severed in order for function to be lost. In addition, it’s also critical to know that most individuals with SCI have an intact spinal cord.
It is the damage to the cord that results in problems. It should also be noted that a person can break their neck or back without enduring a SCI, as long as the vertebrae (bones) are damaged and not the spinal cord itself. In such cases, the bones often heal without the victim incurring paralysis.
Determining Liability In Your Wisconsin Spinal-Cord Injury Lawsuit
Many times Wisconsin residents are injured or paralyzed through no fault of their own. In these situations, you may be entitled to collect significant compensation; however, it’s necessary to almost always get legal assistance because the initial reporting may not consider the life-long ramifications of subsequent health issues, pain and suffering, and any other life-long residual damages that negatively impact your life health.
Not to mention, the initial reporting may not factor in any type of third party, which would entitle you to an even greater claim for you injury. An investigation by a Wisconsin safety specialist can reveal negligent behaviors or omissions by another person or employer that caused the injury or paralysis.
