Those who sustain serious spinal cord injury following a motor vehicle accident or other type of accident often face lifelong challenges. It takes a coordinated team to ensure that you receive the proper treatment and follow-up care to address and perhaps overcome these challenges.
We at the law firm of Graves Richard Harris LLP understand the difficulties that may be involved with a serious spinal cord injury.

From our offices in St. Catharines and Kitchener, we represent clients throughout the Niagara Region and southwestern Ontario.
St. Catharines Lawyers for Victims of Paralysis and Spinal Injury
Unfortunately, those who suffer spinal cord injury often sustain permanent injuries that limit their mobility and thus the opportunities they once had. Paralysis is one of the most common effects of a spinal cord injury. Depending on the location along the spine and the severity of the damage, patients could become paraplegic or quadriplegic.
Our office works with you and your insurance provider to ensure you receive the right services you need to make as full a recovery as possible. This could include compensation for:
- Ongoing physical therapy
- Occupational therapy
- Attendant care
- Vocational counselling
- Wheelchair assistance
- Home modification
We will often involve a professional case manager to coordinate these services throughout the development of your claim. If your injury has left you unable to work, we can also help you recover long-term disability benefits through private insurance or Canada Pension Plan (CPP). As your advocate, we will negotiate with insurance providers on your behalf to obtain compensation for the services you need to maintain your financial stability.
