How to Recover From a Spinal Cord Injury Accident
It takes a lot of time and medical intervention to recover from a spinal injury accident. Fortunately, medical professionals can help you address your injuries and relearn how to live your life. You can even fight for financial support with help from an experienced Sacramento spinal cord injury lawyer.
That said, you need to work quickly if you want to fight for accident compensation. California Code of Civil Procedure section 335.1, the state’s statute of limitations, gives you no more than two years to file a personal injury claim addressing your accident.
A spinal cord injury claim allows you to demand damages for your losses from the party liable for your accident. The claim you file needs to make it to a judge within the state’s statute of limitations and meet the state’s burden of proof. In other words, you need to bring forward enough evidence to prove that you have the right to take civil action against a negligent party.
An attorney can help you bring forward the evidence you need to prove that someone else’s negligence caused your accident. We can also take steps to ensure you stay on top of your filing deadline. All you need to do is schedule an initial case evaluation with our team. These consultations come free of charge and can give you an idea of what to expect from the civil process.
Working With Insurance Claims Adjusters
You may additionally have the right to file an insurance claim following a spinal cord injury accident. An insurance provider that acknowledges the severity of your losses can provide you with the financial support you need to address your most immediate losses.
That said, insurance claims adjusters may attempt to minimize the value of your spinal cord injury losses. Some may even outright deny your spinal cord injury claim. These courses of action can constitute bad faith behaviors if they were taken out of bias.
If you suspect an insurance provider has treated you unfairly, you can appeal a denied claim alongside an experienced attorney. Our team can even recommend legal action against an insurance provider should said provider continue to act in bad faith.
Should You Take a Spinal Cord Injury Claim to Civil Court?
No one intends to force you to take legal action against a liable party after a spinal cord injury accident. If you do decide to move forward with a case, you don’t even have to work with an attorney. You can represent your own best interests as your case moves forward.
That said, working with an attorney to file a spinal cord injury claim tends to make your recovery simpler. Our team has decades of combined experience helping survivors like you navigate the civil system. Working with our team can help you stay on top of legal deadlines and assign fault for your losses.
The other benefits of filing a spinal cord injury claim can include the following:
Fight for Fair Compensation

Stay in Control of the Narrative

Filing a spinal cord injury claim helps you get the jump on a liable party’s attempt to reframe your accident.
Our team can help you find the evidence needed to prove your right to loss-based damages before submitting your spinal cord injury claim to a California civil judge.
How to Prove Liability in a Spinal Cord Injury Case
If you want to prove that another party bears the blame for your spinal cord injury, you need to bring forward evidence of that party’s negligence. California civil law states that you must uphold the state’s burden of proof if you want a personal injury claim to move forward.
Fortunately, you have experienced spinal cord injury attorneys from Sacramento on your side. We can return to the scene of your accident to bring forward case-relevant evidence like the following:
- Video footage of your accident
- Statements from witnesses
- Expert witness input, including medical records
- An accident report from area police
