Spinal Injury

A serious back or spinal injury can have a truly life-changing impact. Even when damage to your spinal cord is less severe, it still has the potential to cause long-term issues or difficulties. Coming to terms with what that now means for you and your loved ones can be hard enough. But what if it was because of an accident or medical negligence where someone else was at fault? At Bolt Burdon Kemp, the solicitors in our spinal injury claims team only represent clients in complex spinal cases. No matter the cause, we are here for you – whether you have a claim for an initial injury or a secondary complication. And our team will work hard to help you get the compensation you need to receive the care and support to rebuild your life after suffering a spinal injury.
