Legal Help for Spinal Cord Injuries in Hollywood, Fort Lauderdale, Miami & Surrounding Areas

Suffering a spinal cord injury can alter the course of your life in a matter of seconds. Whether caused by a car accident, fall, or act of negligence, spinal cord trauma often leads to long-term or permanent disability, chronic pain, and overwhelming medical costs. I’m Mark Schiffrin, a personal injury attorney in Hollywood, Florida, and I’ve been representing seriously injured clients throughout South Florida for over 35 years.

If you or a loved one has sustained a spinal injury in Broward County, Miami-Dade County, or Palm Beach County, I’m here to provide experienced legal representation and help you seek the compensation you deserve.

Understanding Spinal Cord Injuries

The spinal cord is one of the most vital parts of the human body, transmitting messages between the brain and the rest of the body. Damage to the spinal cord can result in:

• Paraplegia or quadriplegia
• Partial or total paralysis
• Chronic pain and nerve damage
• Loss of bladder or bowel control
• Loss of sensation or movement

These injuries require long-term medical treatment, physical rehabilitation, and adaptive equipment. The emotional, physical, and financial toll on victims and their families can be devastating.

Common Causes of Spinal Cord Injuries

As a spinal cord injury attorney in Hollywood, I frequently handle cases involving:

• 🚗 Auto accidents (including car, motorcycle, and truck collisions)
• 🚶 Slip and fall incidents on unsafe premises
• 🏗️ Construction site or workplace accidents
• 🏥 Medical malpractice leading to surgical errors or misdiagnosis
• 🚲 Bicycle and pedestrian accidents

If your injury was caused by someone else’s negligence or failure to uphold their duty of care, you have the legal right to pursue compensation.
