Severe Disability – Paraplegia – Tetraplegia

Paraplegia is a paralysis (a “plegia”) that is more or less complete in the lower half of the body (pelvis and lower limbs). It is a central paralysis caused by damage to the spinal cord in the dorsolumbar region.

 

When paraplegia is complete, there is a total loss of sensation and motor function, associated with sphincter disorders. When it is incomplete (paraparetic), there remains some degree of sensitivity and voluntary motor function.

 

Tetraplegia is the most severe and disabling form of central paralysis, as a tetraplegic individual has lost the use of all four limbs.

 

Disability can result from a medical accident but also from a road traffic accident.

 

Each year, approximately 1,200 road traffic accident victims become paraplegic, adding to an estimated population of 50,000 in France.

 

Our firm operates across France to assert your rights and organizes home consultations or visits to medical facilities.

We are supported by a team of victim medical advisors specialized in neurology, traumatology, and bodily injury compensation to ensure optimal indemnification.
