Spinal Injury Claims

Accidents of various types can result in spinal injuries the effect of which can be catastrophic for the individuals concerned.

Approximately 37% of new admissions to the spinal injuries units in the UK arise out of road traffic accidents whilst 41% are caused by falls of some sort and 11% result from the participation in various sports. Very often damage to the spinal cord will result in a degree of paralysis (tetraplegia, paraplegia, quadraplegia) requiring the specialist help of a spinal injury centre and an intensive rehabilitation programme.

Although the physical impact of such an injury is the paralysis, such injuries do have a major emotional and psychological impact upon the individuals concerned.

At George Ide LLP we understand that representing the victim of a spinal cord injury involves more than simply processing a claim. It is important to consider a Claimant's rehabilitation needs from the day he or she is discharged from hospital. We are able to advise you and ensure that you receive the very best treatment in rehabilitation services that are available.

George Ide LLP are one of the UK's leading personal injuries Solicitors and specialise in spinal injuries. The Chambers "guide to legal the legal profession" 2006 says that Tony Goff, the department head is "... widely respected for his work on higher value orthopaedic injuries".

How Can I Claim?

If you or someone close to you has suffered a spinal injury call on 0800 000 000 to speak to one of our specialist Solicitors. You will be provided with free initial advice as to how we can help you. We can make home or hospital visits if this is necessary. If we make a favourable assessment of your claim we will almost certainly be prepared to enter into a "no win no fee" arrangement, legally described as a conditional fee agreement (CFA) . At the outset CFA's had a bad press with some unscrupulous operators exploiting vulnerable claimants. We at George Ide LLP have an "ethical" policy and will ensure that whatever the extent of your claim you receive 100% of your compensation if successful. If your claim is unsuccessful you will pay nothing and your opponent's costs will be covered by insurance.
