If you suffered a spinal injury in an auto accident, you have rights – in the event of an auto accident, the party with the greater burden of fault is responsible for damages proportionate to his or her degree of fault, usually expressed as a percentage determined by the court.
  • Falls – Accidents involving falls account for a large number of spinal cord injuries every year, and they cause the majority of spinal cord injuries in individuals over 65 years of age.
