KANSAS CITY SPINAL CORD INJURIES ATTORNEY
One of the most immediately life-altering injuries, in Kansas City, is one to the spinal cord. The National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center (NSCISC) reported that approximately 12,000 new spinal cord injury cases per year. Young adults, particularly males, are most frequently involved in accidents that result in Kansas spinal cord injury. The average stay in a hospital, because of such injuries, is 11 days, and rehabilitation unit is 36 days. NSCISC also determined, at the time of injury, more than half of those injured reported being employed; however, one year later only 11.8 percent were still employed. Furthermore, the seriousness of the injury increases the lifelong expenses. Those typically injured have expenses starting at $1.5 million and increasing to $4.6 million. 

Negligence
Negligence is when the other party falls short of their duty to you. When an injury to your spinal cord occurs there are a number of circumstances that may be the cause. The number one cause involves vehicle accidents. Some instances of negligent behavior include:
  • Motor accidents (ex. distracted driver, driver under influnce of drug/alcohol, etc...)
  • Construct accidents (ex. falls, improper equimpent, etc...)
  • Slip & Fall accidents (ex. unattended wet floors, exposed cords, etc...)
  • Pool accidents (ex. failure to warn, failure to protect, etc...)
