Advising SCI Victims with Dedication and Compassion

A spinal cord injury can severely impact a person’s quality of life, thus the damages that can be recovered for injuries of this nature can be substantial. In the first year of injury alone out-of-pocket care costs can be as high as $741,000 for severe injuries. Following years average out at $132,000. These numbers only represent actual medical and care costs, not any loss in wages, pain and suffering or emotional anguish. 

Average lifetime costs for who become paraplegics can reach up to $5 million. SCI do not have a quick and easy recovery rate and 77% of survivors remain unemployed 10 years after the injury. This is a life affecting injury and Retamar & Millian, P.A. want to assure you receive the compensation needed to live your life as comfortably as possible.
