Recovering Compensation for Spinal Cord and Back Injuries in New Jersey
Most serious spinal injuries start with whiplash symptoms — sprained back, sprained neck or muscle spasms. Many times, victims go to the emergency room and the doctors only provide minimal treatment when what is really needed are epidural injections.
It happens all the time: My clients thought they had a whiplash injury when they actually suffered a disc injury (such as a bulging disc or a more-serious herniated disc).

Financial Relief for Your Spinal Cord or Back Injury
Whether you were injured in a car accident or construction accident, you deserve full and fair compensation. I understand that serious spinal and back injuries are debilitating and can affect more than just your body. I want the insurance company to understand this too.
If you are suffering from herniated discs, disc degeneration, paraplegia, quadriplegia, a lower back injury or any other spinal or back injury, my law office is ready to help.
I am assertive, but respectful with insurance companies. My "civil" approach has yielded outstanding results: I have recovered more than $25,000,000 for my clients since 1996.
Using My Experience to Battle the Insurance Company for You
New Jersey law requires doctors to get certain treatments pre-approved by insurance companies. It is amazing how many reasons an insurance company can find to deny coverage and prevent your spinal injury treatment. I have more than 30 years of experience in the area of personal injury law, including nine years spent working as in-house counsel for two insurance companies. I have battled insurance companies for most of my legal career, and I do it well. If your insurance company is preventing you from obtaining proper testing and treatment for your spinal injury, I will offer the proof that you need it.
