    Considering the Legal Options Following a Joint Injury

    Some of the most common causes of neck and back injuries in Philadelphia include slip and fall and automobile accidents, because of the sudden impact or motion involved. For example, a car accident can cause whiplash, a soft tissue injury associated with a sudden back and forth motion of a person’s head and neck. Typically, whiplash injuries generally only last for six weeks, but severe accidents can cause lifelong pain or discomfort.

    As mentioned above, the chance of lasting implications from a neck or back injury makes it critical to explore your legal options following an accident. With 30 years in business and 200 years of combined experience from our attorneys, the Spear Greenfield legal team has guided countless clients through a complex and meticulous legal process. Our goal is to ensure you are informed, not overwhelmed. Below are some of the initial steps in that process that link to additional information to get you started.

    Types of Neck and Back Injuries

    An important step following an accident is to schedule an MRI or see a physician to receive a proper diagnosis. This will not only document the sustained injury but determine the type of injury. There are various injuries that cause neck and back issues, which require specific treatments. Some neck and back injuries that may result from an accident include:

    1

    Herniated discs

    2

    Disc protrusions

    3

    Bulging discs

    4

    Paralysis

    5

    Whiplash

    No matter the specific injury type, many neck and back injuries can be painful. Depending on the injury type, there is the possibility of long rehab times or even consistent life long issues. Due to the difficulties related with neck and back injuries, the importance of seeking legal representation for this category of injuries cannot be overstated. Spear Greenfield has overwhelming experience with personal injury cases, and we will guide you through the legal process.

      Determining Liability

      If you have suffered from a serious neck or back injury as a result of an accident in Pennsylvania or New Jersey, you may be entitled to compensation for the injuries and hardships caused by your accident. Some forms of compensation include medical expenses, lost wages, future expenses, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and more. The first step in the legal process is to file a personal injury claim against the negligent party, which requires proof that negligence took place and directly caused your injuries. The most efficient way to earn the proof necessary for your claim is through evidence, which includes the following:

      1

      Pictures or videos taken by you or witnesses

      2

      Surveillance footage

      3

      Contact information from witnesses who witnessed the accident

      4

      Pictures of the conditions that caused the accident

      The Spear Greenfield legal team has the expertise to not only assist with evidence collection but handle your personal injury case from first consultation to a jury verdict. Our team is here to ensure you receive proper medical treatment, represent your best interests, and fight for maximum compensation!
