A Severe Back Injury Can Change Your Way of Life
Back injuries can range from mild to severe. While a sprain or strain could cause significant pain and put you out of work for days, weeks, or longer, an injury that affects your spine could result in loss of mobility or complete paralysis.
The severity of back injuries varies, but you could experience:
- Severe and/or persistent back pain
- Leg pain
- Weakness
- Fractures
- Herniated discs
- Nerve damage
- Reduced mobility
- Numbness
Spinal Cord Injuries
Severe back injuries can damage your spinal cord or spinal nerves. As Mayo Clinicexplains, spinal cord injuries can permanently affect movement, sensation, and strength below the site of the injury.
“Complete” spinal cord injuries result in total loss of feeling and movement, while “incomplete” injuries leave varying degrees of motor function and feeling. In addition to the loss of mobility and/or paralysis, other symptoms of spinal cord injuries may include:
- Pain and/or intense stinging sensation due to nerve fiber damage
- Loss of bladder and bowel control
- Difficulty breathing
- Circulatory problems
- Muscle spasms
- Sexual dysfunction and/or loss of fertility
- Depression

You Deserve Compensation for Your Medical Bills and More
If your accident was not your fault, you deserve compensation for losses associated with your back injury. You may qualify for:
Economic Damages Associated with a Back Injury
These awards encompass your actual monetary losses. They include compensation for past and future medical expenses, including emergency care, rehabilitation services, medical devices, and long-term care.
Lost wages, loss of future earning capacity, property loss, and other various out-of-pocket expenses resulting from your back injury can also be accounted for in your claim or lawsuit.
Non-Economic Damages That Come with a Back Injury
These damages compensate personal injury victims for their physical pain, emotional suffering, and mental anguish.
If Your Loved One Passed Away from Their Back Injury
According to Florida Statutes § 768.21, a representative of your loved one’s estates can take action to recoup losses suffered by the estate and surviving family members.
These awards may include the cost of your loved one’s medical bills and funeral and burial expenses, as well as the loss of their support, services, care, and counsel.
How Long do We Have to Help You Get the Money You Need After a Back Injury?
Make sure you do not wait too long to reach out for legal help. If you decide to file a lawsuit, you often have four years to file a personal injury lawsuit and two years to file a wrongful death lawsuit, according to Florida Statutes § 95.11. However, there are circumstances that may shorten your window of time.
Our lawyers can tell you more about which timelines apply to you, but do not wait too long to reach out for our help. If we are too late to file your lawsuit, you will most likely be barred from pursuing compensation for your back-injury-related losses.
