SPECIALITY AREASSpinal Cord InjuryA single, catastrophic impact can change a life in an instant. The physical, financial, and traumatic impact on the victim and the victim's family and friends can be difficult to measure. Our spinal cord injury law firm has extensive experience helping spinal cord injury victims obtain the pretrial settlements or jury verdicts necessary to compensate them for their injuries and monetary losses. A Tradition of Compassionate, Personalized ServiceCalifornia Spinal Cord Injury AttorneyHow can a lawyer explain the effects of quadriplegia or paraplegia to an insurance company? If the insurance company does not make an adequate settlement, how can the spinal cord injury attorney convince a jury of what life is like for a quadriplegic person or paraplegic person? At the Weber & Nierenberg law firm, we consult with medical doctors, physical therapists, rehabilitation therapists, and life care specialists to determine the current and future needs of spinal cord injury victims.
A spinal cord injury can be caused in many ways, including a car accident, motorcycle accident, bicycle accident, truck accident, Muni/Bart accident, pedestrian accident, or an accident resulting from dangerous property conditions on private property or public property. Whatever caused the accident, contact spinal cord injury lawyers who will aggressively represent you. When the insurance company or public entity disputes who is at fault for the accident or the settlement offer is insufficient to compensate you for your losses, we will file a lawsuit and take your case to trial. Recent Examples of How We Have Helped Our Clients $3,750,000 - We represented a healthy 76-year old retired heavy equipment operator whose car was rear-ended by a San Francisco Municipal Railway bus. The bus driver was intoxicated and our investigation revealed, in divorce papers filed in San Mateo County, that the bus driver had an extensive substance abuse problem and prior accident history. The accident severed our client’s spinal cord and left him a T-5 paraplegic. The settlement included enough money to provide him with the needed life care prognosticated by our experts. $1,136,000 Our 30-year old motorcycle parts/service manager from Vallejo was driving his motorcycle slightly above the speed limit when a slow-moving backhoe in front of him moved partially into the shoulder and then started turning left in front of our client, causing him to lay down his motorcycle and fracture his back, injure his spinal cord and necessitate spinal fusions at two vertebral levels. The adverse party predictably argued that our client was going at an excessive speed, but our expert motorcycle reconstructionist proved otherwise. Located across from the Embarcadero Center, in downtown San Francisco, our personal injury law firm serves clients throughout the Northern California area including Alameda County, Contra Costa County, Marin County, San Mateo County, Santa Clara County, Stanislaus County, San Joaquin County, Sacramento County, Napa County, Sonoma County, Solano County, and Monterey County.
