FREE CASE EVALUATIONHow to Prove Negligence in a Spinal Cord Injury Case
To win a spinal cord injury case in Maryland, our lawyers must prove that another party’s negligence caused your injuries. This legal process involves establishing four key elements:
- Duty of Care: The at-fault party had a legal obligation to act reasonably and avoid causing harm (e.g., a driver must follow traffic laws).
- Breach of Duty: They failed to uphold their duty, such as speeding, driving distracted, or failing to maintain safe premises.
- Causation: Their breach directly caused your spinal cord injury.
- Damages: You suffered harm, whether physical, financial, or emotional, as a result.
To prove these elements, your attorney may gather:
- Medical records and expert opinions
- Surveillance footage or accident reconstruction
- Physical evidence from the scene of your injury
- Eyewitness testimony
- Documentation of lost income and lifestyle impacts
Adam Smallow builds evidence-based cases to hold negligent parties accountable and fight for the compensation you deserve.

START YOUR CASEWhat to Do If You’ve Had an Injury to Your Spinal Cord
Taking the right steps immediately after a spinal cord injury can make a significant difference in your recovery and legal outcome. Here’s what to do:
- Get medical attention immediately. Your health comes first. Early treatment can impact your recovery after a spinal cord injury.
- Call the police if necessary. For instance, if you were injured in a traffic accident, report it to your local police department. The official crash report they create can be helpful evidence for your spinal cord injury claim.
- Document everything. Take photos of the scene, keep medical records, and collect contact info from witnesses if possible.
- Avoid speaking with insurance companies. Don’t give statements or accept offers before talking to a lawyer. If you do talk with an insurance adjuster on your own, avoid taking blame for your injury.
- Contact a personal injury lawyer right away. The sooner you involve a legal team, the more helpful they can be.
Evidence can disappear, memories fade, and delays may weaken your claim. Let Adam Smallow act quickly on your behalf to protect your rights and build a case for the compensation you truly deserve.
Maryland’s Statute of Limitations
In addition to the timely gathering of evidence, you also face legal deadlines which can impact your case. In Maryland, you typically have three years from the date of your spinal cord injury to file a personal injury lawsuit.
Missing this deadline could mean losing your right to seek compensation entirely.
However, some exceptions may apply depending on the circumstances of your case. Adam Smallow can help you act quickly and protect your legal rights before time runs out.
