Indianapolis Law Firm Helping Spinal Cord Injury Victims

Last updated on January 28, 2025

The spinal cord serves as an essential information transmitter in the human body. The spinal cord is the central and most vital part of the human anatomy because it acts as the mediator between the brain and the rest of the body’s organs, working parts and functions. When a blunt force or other physical trauma injures the spinal cord in any way, the resulting injuries can be devastating.

At Parr Richey Frandsen Patterson Kruse LLP, we represent Indiana residents who have endured this catastrophic injury. We fight for their rightful compensation and seek justice against someone’s negligence. With office locations in Lebanon and Indianapolis, we’re proud to serve the Hoosier state.

How Spinal Cord Injuries Can Impact Your Body

Your spinal cord helps your brain communicate with your body’s organs, facilitating everyday functions. Damage to your spinal cord can lead to these long-term complications:

  • Complete or partial paralysis
  • Quadriplegia
  • Digestive issues
  • Respiratory failure
  • Cognitive impairment
  • Loss of bladder control
  • Emotional distress, such as anxiety and depression

There are often questions about what bodily functions will be lost. The degree of lost bodily function will depend on the location and the severity of the injury. When damage occurs closer to the brain, fatality can increase. At Parr Richey Frandsen Patterson Kruse LLP, we know how devastating and stressful the loss of autonomy can be. The sooner you reach out to us, the sooner we can begin discussing your spinal cord injury claim. We also assist with wrongful death cases.

Maximize Recovery With An Indiana Catastrophic Injury Lawyer

The damage from a spinal cord injury can be overwhelming and can change your life. You may deal with traumatic amputation of limbs, aforementioned paralysis and loss of sensory perception. The cost of all of this can add up. Spinal cord injury victims may deal with:

  • Multiple surgeries
  • Ongoing medical expenses
  • Mobility equipment
  • Home accommodations

At Parr Richey Frandsen Patterson Kruse LLP, we aim to maximize our clients’ compensation because we know how bleak the financial outlook can be. If someone’s negligent or reckless behavior caused you or someone you love to suffer from a spinal cord injury in Indiana, you could have grounds for a claim. Don’t hesitate to reach out to our office. You can also learn more about us here.

Why Is It Important To Speak With An Attorney When Dealing With Insurance Claims?

As mentioned in the previous section, living with a spinal cord injury can easily become incredibly expensive. Insurance companies can easily use your words against you and try to minimize your potential offer. At Parr Richey Frandsen Patterson Kruse LLP, we have experience dealing with insurance companies and articulating complex ideas and needs. Insurance can be a major stressor after a spinal cord injury, and we want to reduce that.
