Brain Injury
A brain injury is typically defined as damage to the brain and supporting tissues. There are two main categories of brain injury: traumatic brain injury and acquired brain injury. The skilled team of lawyers at our Philadelphia, Pennsylvania law firm can assist if you or someone you love has suffered from a brain injury.
Traumatic Brain Injury
A traumatic brain injury is caused by an external force, such as a blow to the head that deals sufficient damage to the brain tissue or an object that penetrates the brain tissue. There are several sub-categories of traumatic brain injury. Sports accidents, car accidents, trucking accidents, and many other sources of impact or penetration of the skull or brain can lead to a traumatic brain injury.
Acquired Brain Injury
An acquired brain injury is not hereditary. Rather, an acquired brain injury is caused by an internal condition within the body, such as the loss of adequate oxygen to the brain during medical treatment and other cases of medical negligence. An acquired brain injury can result from many factors that may not necessarily be the negligence of another, including certain health and drug-related problems.
Who is to Blame?
Many brain injuries, however, are the result of another’s negligence. The skilled brain injury lawyers at our practice feel the financial responsibility for the debilitating damage, emotional and cognitive loss, and lengthy rehabilitation process should rest in the hands of the negligent person or entity that caused the brain injury.

Spinal Cord Injury
The victim of a spinal cord injury will experience long-lasting physical disabilities as well as impaired physical sensation and varying degrees of paralysis. If you or someone you know has experienced a spinal cord injury, the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania law firm of Shrager, Spivey & Sachs would like to discuss the circumstances under which you were injured. Our firm may be able to retrieve compensation for your pain, suffering, lasting physical impairment, and other damages if your spinal cord injury was the result of another person’s negligence.
A spinal cord injury is often the result of severe physical trauma, such as a strong, sudden, or unexpected blow, an auto accident, or a serious sports-related injury. There are some estimates that nearly half of all spinal cord injuries are the result of motor vehicle collisions.
Given the cost of medical care, the pain and suffering, and other financial and health-related problems, it is important to contact Shrager, Spivey & Sachs following a spinal cord injury. The team at our law firm will examine your case and help you get the compensation you and your loved ones deserve.
The severity of a spinal cord injury can be determined by the point at which the injury occurred. A spinal cord injury that occurs closer to the base of the skull will have a much greater affect on a person’s mobility than a spinal cord injury that occurs lower down the back.
