If your spine was damaged due to the negligent actions of someone else, you should not have to pay for the resulting medical expenses or go uncompensated for the negative impact such an injury will have on your life.

Instead, you can file a personal injury lawsuit against the negligent party in order to receive a monetary settlement. A Spokane spine injury lawyer from Craig Swapp & Associates can help you through the legal hurdles and represent you throughout the process.

 

Proving Negligence

During your free consultation, your spine injury lawyer in Spokane will go over what happened before, during, and after your accident to determine who was negligent and therefore responsible. We will then gather evidence to back up your claim. This may include all of the following items:

  • Accident reports filed with the police or state patrol
  • Pictures taken at the accident or by the auto body shop
  • Accident-related medical records
  • Witness statements
  • Video footage
  • And more

Whether your spine injury was caused by medical malpractice, a car accident, or something else, we’ll be able to help you determine how to proceed with your case.

 

Get More Compensation

Your Spokane spinal injury lawyer will evaluate all the ways in which you have been impacted by your accident. After your back injury, you could be entitled to compensation for any of the items listed below:

  • Money to pay for your medical bills—current and future
  • Expenses associated with hiring a caregiver for yourself or your children
  • Transportation expenses
  • A wheelchair or other mobility devices
  • Rehabilitation and therapy expenses
  • Necessary retrofitting of your home to accommodate the injury
  • Lost wages due to an inability to work

 

Court vs. Settling

Retaining the services of a spine injury attorney in Spokane doesn’t necessarily mean that you’ll have to court. In fact sometimes hiring an attorney is precisely what convinces the other side to negotiate in good faith.

However, if they fail to make you a reasonable offer, filing a lawsuit may become your best course of action. Whichever course of action is most appropriate for your situation, we’ll represent you and advise you of what the next step should be.
