Paraplegia is a paralysis of the lower part of the body. Quadriplegia is a paralysis and loss of function of all four limbs. Both are caused by damage to the spinal cord and may also cause a loss of control over bodily functions, spasms, and a shortened life span. These physical conditions may occur as a result of neck and back injuries, negligent medical care, work-related injuries, auto accidents, exposure to chemicals, injuries related to defective products, and a host of other causes. Our firm has extensive experience in these cases. If you or someone you know has been afflicted with paraplegia or quadriplegia, please contact us for immediate attention at 1-888-GINARTE.
