SPINAL CORD INJURIES

Spinal cord injuries can be career ending for construction workers.

The spinal cord carries sensory signals and motor control to most of the skeletal muscles in the body. It controls nearly every voluntary muscle in the body below the head. A spinal cord injury may result from a traumatic blow to the spine that fractures, compresses or dislocates one or more vertebrae. Complete spinal cord injuries result in total loss of function below the point of the injury, while some degree of sensation and control remains with incomplete spinal cord injuries. Any New York construction worker who suffers a spinal cord injury on the job is facing the possibility of lifelong disabilities, including paraplegia or quadriplegia. Many spinal cord injuries have life-changing effects on injured construction workers. It may be impossible for the injured victim to resume work in the construction industry, and the costs of medical care can be staggering.

If you believe your spinal cord injury was preventable, contact the New York construction accident lawyers at Block O'Toole & Murphy today for free legal advice.
