Temecula Spinal Cord Injury Attorneys
There are few things in life as shattering as a spinal cord injury (SCI). When spinal cord injuries occur, they often take away a person’s ability to move, function, and live the way they have become accustom to over the course of a lifetime.
The Temecula spinal cord injury lawyers at the Liljegren Law Group have helped numerous clients over the years find peace of mind after an auto accident or personal injury resulted in a spinal cord injury.
What Causes Spinal Cord Injuries?
The human body is a strong, solid piece of work, but it can be broken. Spinal cord injuries make it so that the body and the brain have a hard time communicating, if it all. That’s because the spinal cord sends signals from the brain to the rest of the body and vice versa—once that connection is severed, there is almost no way to repair it.

Differences Between Spinal Cord Injuries
Spinal cord injuries are classified in two categories and the spinal cord injury lawyers in Temecula from the Liljegren Law Group can help recover damages—including pain and suffering, lost wages, and medical bills—for both kinds of injuries.
Paraplegia: a spinal cord injury reducing the functions and capabilities to half of the body. Often, paraplegics retain motor function skills and abilities from the waist up, but the rest of their body (the legs) do not respond.
Quadriplegia: a spinal cord injury that is limits a person’s control of motor function skills and capabilities from the neck down. There is no sensitivity or movement of the limbs (arms, legs, etc.) and complications involving the internal organs might arise.
