Spinal Cord Injuries - Central Florida

Central Florida Spinal Cord Injury Attorney

Recovering from a spinal cord injury, especially when "full" recovery isn't an option, is a long and difficult journey. If your injury was caused by the negligent, reckless or indifferent actions of another, it can be much, much harder.

Let our family help you and yours to recover.

For more than 20 years, Panter, Panter & Sampedro has been dedicated to protecting people in Central Florida who were injured by the negligence of others. Our hard work and determination have produced numerous verdicts and settlements in excess of $1 million. We can help you too. Contact us.

At Panter, Panter & Sampedro, we represent spinal cord injury victims harmed by the negligent actions of others throughout Central Florida, including the cities of Tampa, St. Petersburg, Cape Canaveral and Orlando. We have also represented victims and families from other parts of the world, including from the Middle East and South America, who have been injured while visiting or vacationing in South Florida.

If you or a loved one was injured in a car accident, by a negligent doctor or hospital, or at an amusement park — contact us and start the legal recovery process today.

In the Aftermath of a Spinal Cord Injury

Spinal cord injury victims face various medical complications and physical effects from their injuries. In addition to the loss of mobility, the loss of independence and shorter life spans associated with various forms of paralysis (paraplegia, quadriplegia and tetraplegia), these can include:

  • Chronic pain
  • Urinary tract dysfunction
  • Bowel tract and digestive system dysfunction
  • Pressure sores, bedsores and decubitus ulcers
  • Deep vein thrombosis
  • Pulmonary embolism
  • Breathing and respiratory problems
  • Sexual dysfunction

The emotional and psychological effects of a spinal cord injury can also be tremendous. These effects manifest themselves in various ways — sometimes in eating disorders, sometimes in alcohol or drug abuse, sometimes in major depression. There is also a very high risk of suicide in the first 10 years following an accident.

Board-Certified Civil Trial Attorneys in Central Florida
Dedicated to Obtaining FULL Compensation for Victims of Paralysis

First, our firm has a critical care nurse on staff to assist us in evaluating paralysis injuries and to arrange for clients to receive the best medical care possible under the circumstances. This alone can be an invaluable asset. However, to achieve our goal of maximizing compensation in each case, we meticulously investigate, research and prepare from the very start. This approach, combined with our determination to succeed, has produced outstanding results for many of our previous clients over the last two decades.

Part of the preparation process involves working with medical specialists, life care planners and numerous other experts in various fields on an as-needed basis. It also involves putting together state-of-the-art courtroom exhibits, including computer simulations and life-size anatomical models, to clearly and convincingly demonstrate our clients' stories to judges, juries and opposing counsel. In any case, rest assured that we will do everything we can to get you and your family the help you need, when you need it most.
