Orthopedic, Spinal, Neurological, TBI, Head & Brain Injuries

Feinberg & Alban, P.C. is very skilled in the handling of these serious cases.  Often the injuries are subtle so your lawyer must understand the medicine as well as the facts of the case.

Orthopedic Injury Attorneys

Often an accident leads to injuries to the bones, joints, muscles, and ligaments. These are known as orthopedic injuries. In our office, we regularly see clients who have suffered injuries to their shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands, hips, knees, ankles, and feet. Of course, we also see cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine injuries.

The lawyer you select must understand the medicine. That will explain what is often referred to as the mechanism of injury (surprisingly, something that is often disputed), the nature of the injury, the prognosis, and similar issues. The lawyer should also know what the dollar value is of these cases. Comparable settlements and verdicts are relevant.

There is a science to the medicine and a science to the valuation of the injury. Neither science is perfect but experienced practitioners can offer important insight and useful approaches.

Spinal Injury Attorneys

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. As with head and brain injuries, radiographic evidence in the form of X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans is used to document in a concrete and vivid way the existence of such an injury. This is done by reliance upon a neurologist and/or neurosurgeon. In addition, an orthopedic radiologist may be employed to explain the condition.

Neurological Injury Attorneys

Defined as the study of the nervous system, in the legal context it can concern a wide array of injuries including the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and conditions or disorders that may come about from trauma. A full workup is sometimes suggested by the medical practitioners as these injuries have significant long term effects and impairment.

As with orthopedic injuries, there is a respected and/or conventional approach to the medical and legal issues involved. In these kinds of cases, you should have an attorney who is knowledgeable about the law and the medicine.
