Back Injury Lawyer Arlington, VA

Back conditions typically need ongoing medical attention. Serious cases require surgery and extensive recovery periods. Justice in back-related personal injury cases looks like the injured victim having the financial resources they need to be able to recover at an effective pace, without cutting any corners on necessary treatment. Most of the time, this isn’t possible unless you take legal action against the responsible party. Our Arlington back injury lawyers can help you understand your rights and options.

Repetitive stress is one of the most common causes of back issues. Maybe you work at a desk all day long and your employer won’t approve proper ergonomic office furniture; or, the weight of your responsibilities makes it difficult to take necessary breaks. We also see a lot of assembly line and blue collar workers suffer from back pain due to their occupations. If your back injury stems from poor working conditions or any incident that happened while you were on the clock, you’re likely eligible for workers’ compensation, which is designed to cover any lost income and medical expenses related to your condition.

Back injuries also occur because of falls, auto accidents, and recreational activities. Workers’ comp claims only require you to prove that your injury happened at work, whereas personal injury claims require you to prove the liability of another party. In some cases, you may be eligible to file both types of claims. Our legal team has handled a wide variety of back and spine injury claims; we can help you determine who’s liable for your injury and what types of compensation you may be able to recover.

Why Experience Matters In Back Injury Cases

Partnering with a lawyer who has handled cases similar to yours can provide peace of mind during uncertain times. Our founding attorney, Joseph A. Blaszkow, has been practicing personal injury law since 1981 and has successfully represented clients with a wide range of back injuries—from herniated discs to spinal fractures and paralysis. Because back injuries can manifest from a variety of causes, and often have delayed symptoms, insurance companies and their defense teams know how to devalue injury victims’ claims for compensation. Our experience allows our team to anticipate any challenges that may come up during your case and address them promptly.
