Getting Maximum Compensation For Your Spinal Injury Case

In 35 years of practicing law in Illinois, attorney Joseph Lucas has learned what details matter most in building a personal injury case. He has obtained good recoveries in a wide range of cases, including back and neck injuries:

• Spinal cord injury resulting in quadriplegia or paraplegia
• Fractured vertebrae
• Herniated disk
• Severe whiplash (neck sprain)
• Lumbar strain (lower back injuries)
• Sciatic pain (pinched nerve)

One key to our successful results is the relationships we have cultivated with medical specialists. We work with orthopedic surgeons, neurologists, anesthesiologists and other doctors who specialize in spinal cord trauma, back injuries, cervical injuries and pain management.

These physicians can advise on the medical aspects of lawsuits, such as proving that a ruptured disk or torn ligament is causally related to an auto collision or falling accident. When we approach defendants and their insurers with claims backed by medical evidence, we position clients for a better result. This analysis also helps us identify which claims are low value or legally weak so that we can devote our attention and resources to viable claims with significant losses.

We Do What It Takes To Get What You Need

If you are disabled from working because of a back injury or spinal cord injury, your settlement or award must cover those projected earnings. If you will need surgery or physical therapy, the compensation should anticipate that. Many clients need wheelchairs, pain medications, nursing care, and other services and accommodations. Many people with back injuries can adapt to new occupations with retraining. We spend time with clients to understand the impact on daily life and the long-range needs.
