As of August 2014, the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center (NSCISC) says the most frequent causes of spinal cord injury are vehicle crashes, including crashes involving cars, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles, all-terrain vehicles, aircraft, boats and snowmobiles. The average age at injury has increased from 29 years during 1970s to 42 years since 2010.
Approximately 79% of spinal cord injuries occur among males. A high spinal cord injury causes varying degrees of paralysis of the arms, trunk and legs, as well as in chest and pelvic organs. This is called tetraplegia or quadriplegia. A lower injury might cause paraplegia, the loss of function in all or part of the legs and pelvic organs. The NSCISC also says the lifetime medical and living costs for a spinal cord injury with “incomplete motor function at any level” can be expected to be at least $1.09 million for a 50-year-old patient or more than $1.5 million for 25-year-old. A 50-year-old patient with high tetraplegia can expect lifetime costs of more than $2.5 million. A 25-year-old who suffers a high spinal cord injury causing tetraplegia will need at least $4.6 million for medical and living expenses.
These figures do not include indirect costs, such as lost wages, pain and suffering, lost enjoyment of life and other emotional damages. If you or a loved one has suffered any of these types of injuries as a result of someone's negligence, please call SPEED LAW OFFICE immediately. SPEED LAW OFFICE will fight for compensation for victims of catastrophic injuries, such as those that result in spinal cord damage, paralysis or quadriplegia.
SPEED LAW OFFICE will help you or your loved one obtain the money you deserve if you are dealing with the aftermath of a serious spinal cord injury suffered as the result of any type of automobile collision caused by someone else’s negligence. SPEED LAW OFFICE is prepared to work for an insurance settlement or verdict that provides the compensation you or your loved one needs for medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering and other damages.

If you or a loved one has been injured in any type of automobile wreck, you may be able to recover the following damages with the help of SPEED LAW OFFICE: Medical Expenses: This may include items such as ambulance fees, fees for emergency room visits, hospital care, surgery, physical therapy, chiropractic treatment, assistive devices and appointments with approved medical professionals.
Future Medical Expenses: If the injured person can prove that they will need continued medical care as a result of the crash, and that the problems are a result of the automobile wreck, they may be able to recover the cost of future medical expenses.
Lost Wages: Injured automobile wreck victims may be able to recover compensation for wages lost between the time of the injury and the conclusion of the lawsuit, if they can prove the wages they lost were the result of the wreck. Loss of earning capacity: If the injured person can demonstrate that their ability to earn a living has been negatively impacted, compensation may be available. While past wages are considered in determining the amount of this award, the jury will typically look to establish the amount victim could have earned had the automobile wreck not occurred.
Non-economic damages: Non-economic damages may be awarded to the injured person for non-financial type losses. Automobile wreck damages for non-monetary losses are typically harder to quantify and may include compensation for the following:
-Pain and Suffering: This may include compensation for the physical pain suffered as a result of injuries sustained in the wreck. In awarding damages for pain and suffering, the jury will examine the nature of the injury, the extent of the pain, and the length of time the victim is expected to suffer.
-Mental Anguish: Injured persons may also be awarded for emotional pain suffered as a result of their automobile wreck. Mental anguish damages may compensate the injured person for fright, embarrassment, nervousness, worry, grief and other forms of emotional distress caused by the wreck.
-Loss of Consortium: If an automobile wreck lawsuit is successful, the uninjured spouse may be able to recover damages for loss of marital benefits, including companionship, sexual relations, affection and comfort. A jury will typically examine the following when awarding damages for loss of consortium: the stability of the marriage; the life expectancy of both partners; the degree to which marital benefits have been lost; and the amount of care and companionship given to the uninjured spouse.
-Punitive Damages: If the actions of the person that caused the wreck were so malicious or egregious, the jury may impose punitive damages, which are intended to punish the defendant and discourage similar behavior in the future.
If you or a loved one has suffered any of these types of injuries as a result of someone's negligence, please call SPEED LAW OFFICE immediately. SPEED LAW OFFICE will fight for compensation for victims of automobile wrecks.

Drinking and driving remains one of the leading causes of motor vehicle wrecks. Regardless of the circumstances that led to the wreck or what injuries occurred as a result, drunk driving crashes are not excusable because the wreck likely could have been prevented if the person had not driven while intoxicated or under the influence of any type of prescription or illegal drugs. If you have been injured as the result of a drunk driver or have lost a loved one, call SPEED LAW OFFICE for representation! SPEED LAW OFFICE will do everything in our power to maximize your financial recovery, enabling you to afford the care you need for yourself and your family. SPEED LAW OFFICE

Innocent people die or are seriously injured because negligent drivers speed, ignore signs, are distracted by cell phones, or are under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Insurance companies usually ask victims of automobile wrecks to sign a monetary settlement – and sign it quickly. A quick settlement with the insurance company, or one that you are asked to sign before your injuries are fully understood or treated, benefits the insurance company at YOUR expense!
It is your legal right to have an attorney review insurance company documents before you sign. There are time limits to recover your damages after an automobile wreck. Don't make the mistake of dealing with the insurance company after a wreck, you need to contact SPEED LAW OFFICE immediately to protect your rights! SPEED LAW OFFICE
