Types of Spinal Cord Injury Claims Our Solicitors Handle

Our spinal cord injury solicitors have secured compensation for many types of spinal cord injury claims, including:

  • Workplace Injuries: Spinal cord damage caused by unsafe working conditions or employer negligence.
  • Road Traffic Accidents: Injuries sustained in car, motorcycle, or other vehicle collisions.
  • Medical Negligence: Spinal injuries resulting from surgical errors, misdiagnosis, or incorrect treatment.
    We also act for clients who have Cauda Equina Syndrome, due to the failure of medical experts to diagnosis the condition early enough.
  • Public Liability: Injuries from accidents in public places, such as slips, trips, or falls.
  • Sports & Recreational Injuries: Spinal injuries during sporting or recreational activities due to inadequate safety measures.
  • Catastrophic & High-Value Injuries: Severe spinal cord injuries causing long-term disability and requiring lifelong care.
  •  

These catastrophic injuries effect the entire family, you need an experienced brain injury lawyer who understands that, and looks after the needs of the entire family.

We can help you in these tragic times of need.

Who Is Eligible to Make a Spinal Cord Injury Claim?

You may be eligible to make a spinal cord injury claim if:

  • The spinal cord injury was caused by someone else’s negligence (such as an employer, medical professional, driver, or third party).

  • The injury occurred within the last 3 years (exceptions may apply, especially in cases involving children or lack of mental capacity).

  • You have suffered physical, emotional, or financial harm as a result of the brain injury.

Spinal Cord injury claims are complex and require specialist solicitors who understand both the legal issues and the long-term impact of such injuries.

We simplify advice, encourage you to have a family member present, and provide all guidance in writing for clarity.

Not sure who was at fault? Our solicitors assess every case with care — and there’s no obligation to continue.

We’ll confirm your eligibility and give you the confidence to move forward with your claim.

How Compensation Is Calculated in a Spinal Cord Injury Claim

Every spinal cord injury is unique, and the level of compensation awarded will depend on how the injury has affected your life — both now and in the future. At NJS Law, we work with medical specialists, care experts, and financial advisers to ensure every aspect of your claim is fully considered.

Compensation in brain injury claims is usually calculated under two main categories:

1. General Damages

This covers the pain, suffering, and loss of quality of life caused by the spinal cord injury. The amount depends on the severity of the injury, the level of disability, and the long-term impact on your independence and wellbeing.

2. Special Damages

These are financial losses and future expenses linked to your injury, which may include:

  • Medical treatment and rehabilitation (including surgery, therapy, or specialist care).
  • Care and support needs — whether from professional carers or family members.
  • Loss of earnings and future earning potential.
  • Adaptations to your home or vehicle to make daily life easier.
  • Aids and equipment to support mobility and independence.
  • Travel expenses for hospital and treatment appointments.

Why Expert Reports Matter

Accurate compensation relies on detailed evidence about your long-term needs. That’s why we instruct leading medical and financial experts to prepare reports, ensuring your claim reflects not only your current situation but also the challenges you may face in the future.

✅ Our goal is to secure the right level of compensation to protect your health, independence, and financial security — for life.

The Spinal Cord Injury Claims Process Explained

Making a claim for a spinal cord injury can feel overwhelming, but at NJS Law we guide you through every stage with clear advice and compassionate support. Here’s what you can expect:

✅ Free Initial Consultation

We offer a free consultation to assess your case honestly and without obligation, giving you clear advice on whether you can claim.

✅ Evidence Gathering

We gather medical records, accident reports, and expert testimony to prove liability and build the strongest possible case.

✅ Establishing Liability

We identify who is legally responsible for your injury — whether that’s an employer, driver, medical professional, or another party — and present your case to them.

✅ Calculating Your Losses

We calculate compensation to cover medical costs, lost earnings, care needs, and emotional distress, ensuring both immediate and long-term losses are recognised.

✅ Negotiation or Settlement

Most cases settle out of court. If liability is disputed, we negotiate firmly and, if needed, represent you in court to secure fair compensation.
