 Welcome to the Brown &
Crouppen St. Louis Neck Injury Lawyers' home page. Our
team of neck injury attorneys has been involved in this
type of litigation for more than 25 years. Because the
neck area is fairly complex, structurally speaking, it
can be easily damaged in a traumatic situation, such as
an automobile accident – the most common cause of neck
injuries.
A neck injury can cause:
- Debilitating pain
- Neck stiffness
- Weakness on one or
both sides of the body
- Difficulty walking
- Holding the head in
an unusual position
- Feeling like “my
head is going to slip off”
- Shock
- Headache
- Numbness or tingling
in various parts of the body
- Loss of bladder or
bowel control
Severe neck injuries
generally require lengthy recovery periods.
Neurosurgical treatment is often necessary, as are
frequent evaluations over a period of several months to
years. If there is paralysis, lifelong treatment is
necessary. Many people recover fully and have no
long-lasting side effects from the injury. An individual
who retains some function after the injury will usually
benefit from physical therapy and occupational therapy.
You need an experienced lawyer to explain your legal
rights and the type of workers’ compensation available.
When the injury occurs on public property, an attorney
can assist you in determining who is at fault and for
what damages the responsible party should pay. If you
were injured in an automobile accident, you will most
likely be able to receive monetary compensation from
your insurance company or the insurance company covering
the other party. This compensation, however, may not be
enough to pay for the costs of your medical treatment
and lost income while recuperating. An aggressive legal
strategist can ensure all of your medical expenses will
be covered and fight for additional compensation for
your pain and suffering.
Brown & Crouppen’s attorneys and staff provide
aggressive legal representation in a cost effective,
timely, innovative and responsible manner.
