California Spinal Cord Injury Lawyers
A spinal cord injury is one of the most devastating consequences of a serious accident. Depending on the location and severity of the injury, victims may face partial or complete paralysis, loss of sensation, loss of bladder and bowel control, and a lifetime of medical care and physical therapy. The financial cost of a serious spinal cord injury can reach millions of dollars over a lifetime.
When a spinal cord injury is caused by someone else's negligence, that person or company must be held fully accountable. Masjedi & Associates has represented spinal cord injury victims throughout California for over 28 years and understands how to fight for the comprehensive, lifelong compensation these cases require.
