A spinal cord injury, which is damage to any part of the spinal cord or nerves at the end of the spinal canal, often causes permanent changes in strength, sensation and other body functions below the site of the injury. A spinal cord injury can be the result of auto accidents, medical negligence, slip and fall accidents, animal attacks, dangerous or defective products, drunk driving accidents, violent acts due to negligent security, or motorcycle accidents. If you, or a loved one, has experienced a spinal cord injury, and your life has been affected physically, emotionally, and financially, contact the Kennedy Legal Team for a free consultation.
