It is important to document in a concrete and vivid way the existence of such an injury. At our St. Louis injury law firm, we have numerous experts we can call upon to help explain client injuries so that juries can return the proper verdict.
Selecting appropriate experts and witnesses
Use of experts in catastrophic cases is important to substantiate your claim and document the clinical course of the injury. Experts may include neurologists, psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers.
Use of witnesses such as family members and co-workers is also important to establish the client's condition before an injury, thereby setting a baseline to compare the victim's current condition to the pre-accident condition.
Imaginative use of demonstrative evidence to depict your injury is essential in presenting your case.
Insurance companies often argue that even if the condition is as catastrophic as portrayed by the plaintiff's St. Louis personal injury attorney, it is not due to the accident/injury. This argument must be refuted with strong attention to documentation and persistence.
Long-term impact can be expected
Spinal injuries can range from sprains and strains to disc injuries and fractures of the vertebral body. Any of these can have long-term implications with a serious and adverse effect on a client's mobility, function, and level of pain. Evidence such as X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans is used by expert witnesses including neurologists to document in a concrete and vivid way the existence of such personal injuries. In addition, an orthopedic radiologist may be employed to explain the condition.
