WORKERS COMPENSATION

DID YOU SUFFER A NERVE INJURY AT WORK FROM AN ACCIDENT OR TOXIC EXPOSURE?

                     You may have a work injury..you need a tenacious lawyer fighting for you. 

​

THE MECHANISMS OF  NEUROLOGICAL INJURIES ARE VARIED

 

The brain, spinal column, nerve roots, and the periphery nerves can all play a part in a neurological injury. Generally, there is some damage along the nerve paths causing some type of dysfunction. The dysfunction may be physical or it  may be emotional.

​

Direct Neurological  Injury: ​

A direct neurological injury generally results from a sudden severe injury to either the brain, the spinal cord, the nerve roots, or the system of nerves running through out the body. Examples might be if a worker fell and hit his head either on the ground or on objects while falling. Or if  equipment and /or materials fell and hit a worker on his head or any number of vulnerable places on his body. 

​

Gradual Neurological Injuries: ​

Gradual neurological injuries can result from a toxic environment and by ignoring the symptoms of a mild neurological injury upon the initial insult. 

​

The mild symptoms that are often overlooked or are attributed to a different medical condition are (and this is not an exhaustive list):

​

Altered mood states                                                   Irritability

Euphoria                                                                    Sudden mood changes

Excessive tiredness                                                    Feelings of hostility

Anxiousness                                                              Depression

Memory problems                                                     Concentration difficulties

Headaches                                                                  Blurred vision

Feelings of drunkenness                                            Dizziness

Slowness                                                                    Loss of libido

​

If you have one or more of these symptoms it does not mean that you do have a neurological injury but it does mean that you might. Whether you have a neurological injury and whether that neurological injury is a result of your work environment, work accident, or work exposures must be determined by a doctor qualified to make those determinations.

​

If you have any of these symptoms and believe that those symptoms may be the result of a work accident or work exposures to toxins and/or chemicals, you may have a work injury. A doctor provided under the workers compensaion laws can make those determinations. If you want to pursue this inquiry, then we invite you call us. ​
