What Causes Spinal Cord Injuries?

Spinal injuries can occur in various types of accidents, often due to someone else's negligence. The most common causes include:

  • Car Accidents & Motorcycle Crashes – High-impact collisions leading to spinal trauma
  • Truck & Commercial Vehicle Accidents – Severe crashes resulting in catastrophic injuries
  • Slip and Fall Accidents – Falls from unsafe premises or hazardous conditions
  • Workplace & Construction Accidents – Heavy machinery injuries, falls from heights, and unsafe work environments
  • Medical Malpractice & Surgical Errors – Botched surgeries or misdiagnosed spinal injuries
  • Sports & Recreational Accidents – High-contact sports, diving accidents, and extreme activities

If negligence played a role in your spinal injury, you have the right to seek legal action.

How Long Do You Have to File a Spinal Injury Claim in California?

In California, spinal cord injury claims are subject to strict legal deadlines, known as the statute of limitations. Failing to file your claim on time can permanently bar you from recovering compensation, no matter how severe your injuries are.

The time limits for filing a spinal injury lawsuit depend on who is responsible for the accident:

  • Two Years – If your spinal injury was caused by a car accident, slip and fall, workplace accident, or other private entity negligence, you have two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit.
  • Six Months – If your claim involves a government entity (such as a city bus, public transit system, or government-owned property), you must file a formal claim within six months of the accident.
  • Wrongful Death Claims – If a spinal injury results in death, surviving family members generally have two years from the date of passing to file a wrongful death lawsuit.

Missing these deadlines means losing your right to compensation forever. Don’t wait—speak with a spinal cord injury attorney today to protect your legal rights and ensure you file on time.

What should I do if I suspect I have a spinal injury?

If you suspect you have a spinal injury, it’s crucial to seek immediate medical attention. Avoid moving and remain as still as possible to prevent further injury.
