Our Spinal Cord Injury Settlements for Clients

At Breit Biniazan, we have successfully represented individuals and families devastated by spinal cord injuries. These cases are never simple. Victims often face permanent disability, require continuous medical care, and must undergo years of rehabilitation. The financial burden is massive, and the emotional toll is just as heavy. That’s why our legal team is committed to securing maximum compensation for every client we serve.

Here are a few of our standout spinal cord injury case results:

$6.5 Million – Tractor-Trailer Collision Resulting in Spinal Cord and Brain Injury
Our client was struck in a devastating motor vehicle accident involving a tractor-trailer. They sustained multiple traumatic injuries, including a spinal cord injury and a traumatic brain injury, resulting in left-side paralysis. Their condition required lifelong care, mobility assistance, and regular medical attention. Our legal team fought to recover $6.5 million to cover medical treatment, lost income, and future rehabilitation costs.

$1.75 Million – Head-On Collision Leading to Cord Concussion and TBI
A head-on crash left our client with a spinal cord concussion, causing partial paralysis on one side, along with a traumatic brain injury that impaired cognitive function. We built a detailed case demonstrating the long-term impact of these injuries and secured $1.75 million to support ongoing neurological treatment and recovery needs.

$1 Million – Wrongful Death from Surgical Error During Spinal Procedure
In a heartbreaking case, a patient passed away due to a preventable error during spinal surgery. Her family came to us seeking answers and accountability. After a thorough investigation, we held the negligent medical providers responsible and obtained a $1 million settlement to help her loved ones find some measure of closure and financial support.

Why Spinal Cord Injuries Require Skilled Legal Representation

A spinal cord injury is more than just a diagnosis. It is a profound disruption to a person’s health, identity, and ability to live independently. These cases demand attorneys who understand both the legal and medical aspects involved.

Spinal cord injuries often require lifelong care. Many victims must undergo surgery, intensive rehabilitation programs, and continuous physical therapy. In some cases, patients suffer a complete loss of function below the site of injury, while others retain partial mobility but experience chronic pain and reduced quality of life.

Legal representation is essential not just for proving fault, but for accurately assessing the full value of what was lost. This includes economic damages, emotional pain, and the long-term cost of care. At Breit Biniazan, we fight to make sure your compensation reflects the real impact of the trauma.

What Makes Breit Biniazan the Right Team for Your Case?

We understand the complex nature of spinal cord injury cases. Our legal team collaborates with medical experts, rehabilitation specialists, and life care planners to fully document your injury and needs. We work closely with each patient and family to build a case that addresses both short-term challenges and long-term consequences.

When you work with Breit Biniazan, you benefit from:

  • Experience handling traumatic injury cases with seven-figure results
  • Access to medical professionals and care providers familiar with spinal cord trauma
  • A legal team that prepares every case as if it will go to trial
  • Personalized attention focused on your unique needs and your path to recovery

Common Causes of Spinal Cord Injuries in Arlington

Spinal cord injuries can happen anywhere, but many are the result of preventable accidents. In Arlington, some of the most common causes include:

  • Vehicle collisions, including car accidents and motorcycle crashes
  • Falls from height or slips on unsafe surfaces
  • Sports or recreational accidents
  • Acts of violence, including gunshot wounds or physical assaults
  • Workplace injuries involving heavy machinery or falls
  • Medical errors during surgery or anesthesia

When someone else’s actions or failure to act leads to a spinal cord injury, you have the right to seek compensation through a personal injury claim.

Types of Spinal Cord Injuries and Their Impact

Spinal cord injuries are categorized based on the location and severity of the damage. Each type carries different consequences:

  • Complete injuries result in total loss of sensation and function below the injury site
  • Incomplete injuries allow for some mobility or sensation, though often with lasting impairment
  • Injuries to the cervical spine (neck area) can cause quadriplegia or loss of function in all four limbs
  • Injuries lower on the spine may lead to paraplegia, affecting only the lower body

The spinal cord does not regenerate, which means many patients must adjust to permanent changes in function, physical ability, and lifestyle.

Long-Term Effects of a Spinal Cord Injury

The consequences of a spinal cord injury extend far beyond the initial trauma. Many patients experience:

  • Chronic pain and muscle spasms
  • Loss of bladder and bowel control
  • Respiratory issues, especially with higher-level injuries
  • Increased risk of infections and complications
  • Severe emotional distress and mental health concerns
  • Limitations on independence and self-care

The impact on daily life is profound. People with spinal cord injuries often require full-time care, mobility aids, and home modifications, creating massive financial burdens.

Treatment, Rehabilitation, and Recovery After a Cord Injury

Recovery from a spinal cord injury involves intensive treatment and often lifelong rehabilitation. Patients may need:

  • Immediate surgery to reduce swelling or stabilize the spine
  • Ongoing physical therapy to improve strength and mobility
  • Occupational therapy to relearn basic tasks
  • Mental health counseling to manage emotional challenges
  • Specialized treatment programs for speech, coordination, and motor function
  • Assessments for long-term care needs, including home nursing or adaptive equipment

While full recovery is rare, targeted rehabilitation can help many patients regain independence and improve quality of life.

Pursuing Compensation for Spinal Cord Injuries

Victims of spinal cord injuries are entitled to seek financial compensation for a wide range of losses. A personal injury claim may include:

  • All current and future medical expenses related to treatment and care
  • The cost of rehabilitation programs and physical therapy
  • Lost wages and reduced future earning ability
  • Compensation for pain and suffering and emotional distress
  • Home modifications, assistive devices, and specialized transportation
  • Damages for loss of enjoyment of life or permanent disability

In wrongful death cases, surviving family members may also pursue compensation for funeral costs and the loss of a loved one’s financial and emotional support.

Steps to Take After a Spinal Cord Injury

If you or a loved one has suffered a spinal cord injury, time is critical. Follow these steps to protect your health and your case:

  1. Seek immediate medical attention and follow all treatment instructions
  2. Document everything, including how the injury happened and who was involved
  3. Keep detailed records of all medical care, expenses, and changes to your lifestyle
  4. Avoid speaking with insurance companies until you have legal representation
  5. Contact a spinal cord injury attorney in Arlington to explore your legal options

Early legal action can make a significant difference in preserving evidence and maximizing compensation.

"Working with this law firm made settling my case a breeze! When i was injured in my car accident and my car was totaled, i was so worried about handling the insurance company and all of the phone calls and paperwork while i had a concussion. With a couple visits and a few emails back and forth with my paralegal and attorney, my case was settled in less than a year! If i ever needed to be represented again i will 100% be choosing Breit Cantor Grana Buckner to represent me! I appreciate everything they did for me!"

I would recommend to family & friends."

Cobi M.

"Throughout 2019 and 2020 Attorney Kevin Biniazan helped me with a personal injury case. Aside from the professionalism and attentiveness one would expect from a quality law firm such as Breit Cantor Grana Buckner, I was taken by the fact that they agreed to take my case on a contingency basis, even though there was little evidence in my favor in the early stages of preparation. This meant the world to me. It meant that they believed in me, and my case, when two other firms declined to take the case. In late 2020 the case settled out of court and I received a substantial monetary award that exceeded my expectations. Thank you Kevin, and all your support staff for believing in me when many others did not!!!!"

Markgerszewski

"This law firm was highly recommended by a friend who had prior representation. I am very pleased with their professionalism and they kept me well informed of my injury case. Attorney Kevin Biniazan and his team fought well for my rights and I received an extremely good settlement. I encourage you to give them a call as you will have a pleasant experience with their representation!"

Scott S.

"My experience with Breit Biniazan and his team was very positive. They were very helpful, were always available, took time to explain the process, and answer any questions I had. A special thanks to Kellie for all her support and efforts. I always felt she was on my side and looking out for my best interest. I would highly recommend Mr. Binazan and his team and would not hesitate to use their services should the need arise."

Mark T.

"Michael Collett represented us in our suit, and he was incredible. He made quick, efficient work of getting our case positively resolved while also making sure to keep us updated along the way. We recommend him to anyone seeking representation in a personal injury suit.

Our suit had dragged on for five years, and we wondered if it would ever be finished. Once Mike was handed our case, he immediately got to work getting to know us and understanding the timeline of events. Additionally, as a prior military member, he understood that our case was not a traditional cut-and-dry lawsuit: our life continued while the company dragged it out in court, including PCSing overseas and then back to the US during COVID. This kind of personal understanding and attention to detail was instrumental to our case. Mike's background, compassion, attentiveness, and professionalism made the difference; without him, we could have had a very different outcome.

If you are in need of any representation for a personal injury suit, I highly recommend Michael and his colleagues."

Kim V.

"I'm an attorney in Nebraska and represented a Nebraska family who lost their son/brother due to an electrocution on a job site in Virginia. After handling the workers' compensation claim in Nebraska, I reached out to multiple law firms in Virginia, ultimately co-counseling with Kevin Biniazan on the Virginia third party claims. He worked the case up, secured experts, and ultimately tried the case to a jury. Kevin and his team did a fantastic job presenting the case, arguing points of law, and overall just demonstrated that they had put extraordinary time and effort into preparing the case for trial. They secured a 7-figure recovery on tough facts and were great to work with along the way. I highly recommend Kevin and his firm."

Aaron B.

"I give Kevin Biniazan and his team the highest rating I can. I had a case in Va Beach a few years ago, called a few attorneys but ended up going with Kevin because of the knowledge and compassion he showed. After telling Kevin my issue, he and his team did all the work. They took the time to listen to my concerns and feelings, they were informative and available at all times. Along with the success of my case, Kevin and his team gave me the opportunity and support I needed to begin healing. I couldn’t recommend enough!"

Brit T.

"Outstanding service! My case lasted approximately 2 years, the staff was more than patient with me and the multiple questions I had throughout the process. I highly recommend their services to all."

Donald B.

"I was injured in a motorcycle accident with a car driver and refered to Breit Biniazan by a second lawfirm from my home state. They were professional and got me through one of the most painful times in my life. I simply gave them what they needed and they took care of the rest, getting me proper compensation for my pain and suffering."

Kurtis P.

"I took a chance on this firm from a recommendation and I couldn’t be happier with their work and the results of my case. Kellie and Nilda are pure gold! Kellie kept me appraised of everything that was going on, timely and answered all my questions and concerns. I followed a recommendation; trust me, Breit Biniazan is the very best!"

Ally A.

"Kevin, Kylee and his team are the best in the business! They are the most trustworthy,hardworking,dedicated, honest, and morally outstanding people I've had the pleasure of knowing."

Edward D.

"My experience with the team at Breit Biniazan was nothing short of outstanding. They handled our case with the utmost professionalism and compassion. Kellie, their paralegal proved to be an invaluable support. Kellie was compassionate and her communication helped us through a tough time. I highly recommend Breit Biniazan."

Craig M.

"I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Beasley and Ms. Jennings. I was unfortunately involved in multiple crashes that I was a victim of and sought their firm, Breit Biniazan for help with medical bills and other issues. They worked with me for well over a year, coming to a successful resolution for my cases. They are incredibly passionate about their job and getting to an outcome desired for their plaintiffs. I would recommend their firm for any cases you may have, no questions asked."

Zach H.

"I’ve never been in a lawsuit, nor have I been to court, or had anything dealing with legal matter so all of this was pretty new to me, and 9/10 it was scary & heart racing. The only reason I got through it is because of Kevin. If it wasn’t for him with his patience, his commitment to his client, or the will to go the distance I never would’ve had confidence in any of this legal stuff. 10/10 recommend Breit Biniazan."

Tyler B.

"Kept me informed of the entire process. Offered advice on how to proceed."

Kenneth P.

"Fantastic team! Kevin is an amazing attorney who comes through on his word. Kylee and the team of paralegals went above and beyond to help me understand what we should expect in the case. I highly recommend Kevin’s team to anyone who is not only in need of a legal team, but one who will get them what they deserve!"

Angelica S.

"Kevin and his team worked tirelessly to help us secure the best possible outcome for an incredibly difficult situation. They were supportive and attentive to our needs, walked us through the process step by step and fought hard for us. I would highly recommend Breit Biniazan for all of your legal needs."

Carmen A.

"Following a motor vehicle accident, I needed assistance with handling insurance issues and was referred to Breit Biniazan for their expertise. I had the pleasure of working with attorney Alexis Meier and her paralegal Molisa Gardner. They managed my case with utmost professionalism, efficiency, and thoroughness.

As a physician, I am aware that some law firms may try to enhance settlements by recommending excessive consultations, imaging studies, and other tests, as well as extensive therapy. However, Alexis and Molisa ensured that I received the necessary care without subjecting me to unnecessary tests or treatments. I found their approach to be both ethical and professional.

I wholeheartedly endorse Breit Biniazan and recommend their services to anyone in a similar situation."

Andrew D.

"Alexis Meier is an exceptional attorney—professional, knowledgeable, and highly effective. She handled my case with efficiency, care, and compassion, ensuring everything was managed seamlessly. Her team was equally impressive, always responsive and prompt in their communication. It was an absolute pleasure working with them, and I highly recommend Alexis and her team to anyone in need of outstanding legal representation."
