California Spinal Cord Injury Lawyer

Our attorneys represent clients across California who have sustained spinal cord injuries in car accidents, truck collisions, motorcycle crashes, bicycle accidents, pedestrian incidents, falls caused by unsafe conditions, and any other incident caused by negligence.

These injuries are life-changing, often resulting in partial or total paralysis, loss of sensation, or chronic pain which can place overwhelming financial, emotional, and physical burdens on victims and their families.

For instance, in addition to costly emergency treatment, ongoing rehabilitation, and possible home modifications, many of our clients face lost income and diminished earning capacity, and their families often find themselves reshaping their lives around new caregiving responsibilities.

As your California spinal cord injury lawyers, we take all these factors into account to build a strong claim that reflects the true scope of your damages. Our mission is to secure the resources you need to leave your accident in the past and build a bright future.

Why Experience Matters In Spinal Cord Injury Cases

Spinal cord injury claims often involve highly technical medical evidence, expert testimony, and disputes over long-term care costs. Insurance companies frequently attempt to minimize payouts in these high-value cases. Having our experienced legal team in your corner can make all the difference in the outcome of your case; our CA spine injury lawyer will work hard to make sure your case is presented with the strongest evidence and advocacy possible.

At the Choulos & Tsoi Law Firm, we bring decades of skill, compassion, and proven results to clients facing catastrophic spinal cord injuries. Here’s a quick introduction to our lead attorneys:

  • James V. Choulos: With more than 30 years of experience since earning his J.D. from Santa Clara University in 1990, James has built a respected career handling serious injury claims, including spinal cord trauma. Mentored by his father, a renowned San Francisco trial lawyer, James has devoted his life to fighting for accident victims.
  • Victor Tsoi: Since joining the firm in 2015 after earning his J.D. in 2011, Victor has earned a reputation for sharp negotiation skills and detail-oriented preparation. His commitment to advocating for clients with catastrophic injuries makes him a trusted ally in spinal cord cases.

Our California law firm has recovered millions of dollars for clients who have suffered catastrophic injuries, including spinal cord trauma. Some of our recent results include:

  • $1,300,000: Settlement for a bicyclist dragged by a city bus, suffering multiple fractures, pelvic injuries, and permanent complications.
  • $650,000: Settlement for a client hurt in a head-on collision who required cervical fusion surgery.
  • $250,000: Settlement for an automobile accident client who sustained a permanent neck injury and lasting emotional trauma.

This track record speaks to both our ability to handle high-stakes, life-changing claims and our commitment to securing the resources our clients need to rebuild their lives. When you’re ready to share your story, we’ll be here, ready to listen and explain your legal options.

Prepared To Advocate For Your Future
