What should I avoid after a serious spinal cord injury?

After a paraplegia injury, it may be wise to avoid:

  • Giving recorded statements to insurers without advice
  • Signing broad medical authorizations without understanding them
  • Accepting a quick settlement before future needs are known
  • Posting detailed injury updates on social media
  • Missing medical appointments
  • Ignoring new or worsening symptoms
  • Discarding receipts, bills, or medical equipment records

Every case is different, so it is important to receive personalized legal advice before making decisions that could affect a claim.
