Spinal Cord Injuries

NYC Spinal Cord Injury Lawyer

Long Island Paralysis Attorneys

The consequences of a back or neck injury — especially a spinal cord injury — can be very serious. The outcome of a catastrophic injury to the neck, back or spine can be paralysis, paraplegia or quadriplegia and severely limit the injured person's work and daily living activities.

Herniated disks, spinal cord contusions, and other injuries causing nerve damage and severe pain can also be life-changing. Severe pain can make life miserable, affecting your ability to sleep, to work, to find joy in life.

If you or a loved one has suffered a back, neck or spinal cord injury due to someone else's negligence and continues to suffer back or neck pain, you deserve adequate compensation. At Arye, Lustig & Sassower, P.C., in New York City, we have more than forty years of experience helping injured people maximize the compensation they receive for spinal cord injuries.
