How Can Our Back Injury Lawyers in Los Angeles Help You?

A back injury lawyer is a lawyer who can help you file a lawsuit if your neck, back, or spinal cord is damaged in an accident. There are over 800,000 cases of these back and neck trauma reported from car accidents in the U.S. each year. 

If you are one of these accident victims, then the Peerali Law team may be able to help. Our experienced lawyers have helped many clients obtain the compensation they deserve.

Common Neck Injuries

If you have ever seen an x-ray, it is obvious that the neck is a complex part of the human body. The seven bones of the neck protect the upper part of the spinal cord. 

These bones, called vertebrae, protect sensitive nerves in the spinal cord. The vertebrae themselves are surrounded by tissues like muscles, ligaments, and tendons. 

Because the neck is both complex and fragile, you should seek medical attention immediately after any kind of accident. After you have been looked at by a medical professional, call the Peerali Law team to discuss the next steps.

Some of the most common injuries to the neck include:

• Whiplash – These are caused when a victim’s head is thrown backward and then forward in a snapping motion.
• Sprains – These types of sprains can cause significant pain when moving or rotating the head or neck.
• Fractures – Fractures are diagnosed by x-ray or other imaging and can lead to difficulty in moving your limbs.
• Pinched nerves – Nerve damage can occur in both the neck and spine and can cause numbness, tingling, and burning.

If you think that your condition was caused by your car accident, fall, use of a defective product—or by any type of accident—please give Peerali Law a call. We are experienced neck and back injury attorneys, and we handle all kinds of lawsuits.

Common Back Injuries

While the nature and severity of back injuries can vary, some common ones include damage to the:

• Spinal cord – These encompass damage to vertebrae, discs, or cartilage in the spinal column or to the spinal cord.
• Discs – These include bulging or herniated discs, which is a lower back condition where the jelly-like part of a spinal disc pushes out between bony vertebrae, causing pain and irritation.
• Soft tissue – These include damage to muscles, tendons, and ligaments in the back.

If you have suffered any of these injuries due to an accident or workplace issue, you should speak with a member of the Peerali Law team. Our back injury lawyers will understand cases like yours and may be able to help.
