Brain & Spinal Injuries
As longtime Atlanta personal injury attorneys, we recognize how devastating brain and spinal injuries can be, and they can be caused by a number of different types of roadway incidents. Of course motor vehicle collisions can sometimes result in injuries to the brain and/or spine, but rollovers are a major cause as well. It’s ironic that people make the case for SUVs keeping drivers safer on the road, but in fact, vehicles such as these with a high center of gravity and a wheelbase that is rather narrow are more prone to rollovers than standard automobiles.
When it comes to liability, accidents that result in brain and spinal injuries can be caused by a number factors that are out of the control of the victim other than the negligence of another driver. Seat belt failure, suspension defects, seat back collapse, defective tire treads, and substandard roof strength can all contribute to injuries that affect the brain or spine. The fact that there may be no culpability on the part of another driver does not mean that there is no liable party.
If you have suffered brain and/or spinal injuries in an accident, you need to consult with an Atlanta personal injury lawyer who recognizes the minute details that can be extremely relevant in these types of cases. The attorneys at J. Franklin Burns Law Firm have a wealth of experience representing victims of brain and spinal injuries, and we will leave no stone unturned as we vigorously advocate your interests.
