California Attorney Handling Spinal Cord Injury Cases

The word devastating doesn't begin to describe the impact a spinal cord injury has on the life of an accident victim. To someone adjusting to paralysis, accomplishing even the smallest tasks may feel like trying to move a mountain.

After a spinal cord injury, the world becomes a very intimidating place. Our society is not always prepared to manage differing abilities. Learning to live from a new point of view takes time and tremendous effort. Having the financial resources you need to be able to live your life with dignity and make your environment accessible is of utmost importance.

Since 1974, The Heller Law Firm, in Los Angeles, has worked with individuals and families contending with cervical, thoracic and lumbar spinal injuries. We work to obtain every resource a victim is entitled to. This may include personal insurance, government assistance and holding any responsible parties accountable.

Determining Your Future Needs

As a victim of a spinal cord injury, you need the opportunity to get as close to your "new normal" as possible. A personal injury lawsuit can provide you the compensation both you and your family need to pursue a life of dignity without having to rely on public or government assistance. We want to give you the tools that allow you to choose how to reconstruct and live the rest of your life.

Beyond medical care and therapy, those with a spinal cord injury need many adaptations to their living and working environments. We rely on the expertise of architects and rehabilitative technology experts to determine how to retrofit homes and secure specially equipped vans or cars. All of this costs money. Our job, as your legal representative, is to demonstrate to insurance companies and juries your need for compensation is not speculative, but based on facts and hard evidence.

A Day In the Life

When presenting your case in front of a jury, we often use artistic renderings of your injuries and rely on computer animation to demonstrate exactly how your spinal cord injury occurred. We may show a "Day in the Life" video to clearly demonstrate the extent of the challenges you face. We want the Court and Jury to understand, to the best of their ability, just how the accident changed your life, and how adequate compensation will permit you live with dignity in you current state.

To discuss your options for financial compensation, contact us on-line or by calling 800-992-9947.

The Heller Law Firm will be with you all of the way.
