Spinal Cord Injuries

At the law office of Thomas J. Murphy, we provide representation to individuals and family members who have been injured due to the carelessness or recklessness of others.  Attorney Thomas J. Murphy handles all different types of personal injury & accident claims, including those involving spinal cord injuries.  Car accidents and truck accidents are common causes of spinal cord injuries, and more times than not, negligence on the part of an individual or business can be responsible for causing the accident. 

Spinal cord injuries are very serious and have the potential to permanently disable a person.  Because the spinal cord controls so many of the body’s functions and movements, damage to any part of the spinal cord can be detrimental to a person’s health.  Those suffering from spinal cord injuries may face a lifetime of pain, or paralysis, both of which can significantly reduce a person’s quality of life.  Some victims of spinal cord injuries may require around the clock medical care for the rest of their lives, and in these cases it is especially important to obtain the compensation needed to pay for this care.   

No matter what the exact cause of the injuries may be, a personal injury claim may be necessary if someone’s negligence contributed to the accident.  Philadelphia personal injury attorney Thomas J. Murphy will perform a thorough evaluation of your situation to determine whether or not you have a case, and if you do he will take whatever legal actions are necessary to hold the responsible party accountable for their negligent actions. As your attorney, Mr. Murphy will try to get you compensation for doctor bills, lost wages, pain & suffering, on-going medical costs, and any other miscellaneous expenses incurred as a result of your spinal cord injury.
