Baton Rouge Spinal Cord Injury Attorneys

Baton Rouge and Lafayette Paralysis Lawyers

Life will never be the same after a sudden and irreversible injury to the spinal cord. The victim will face physical and psychological challenges, and the whole family endures financial hardships and emotional anguish. The McKernan Law Firm in Baton Rouge provides compassionate support and aggressive legal representation for this ordeal.

Gordon McKernan and the attorneys of McKernan Law Firm have won damages for people paralyzed in car wrecks, motorcycle crashes, 18-wheeler accidents, four-wheeler accidents, shootings, aviation crashes and other catastrophic events caused by negligence. In each one of these cases, our firm was able to obtain an overwhelmingly positive result on behalf of our client. We achieved those favorable verdicts and settlements by illustrating to the jury or opposing counsel the significant problems that our clients encounter in everyday life after a spinal cord injury.

We handle motor vehicle accidents and other personal injury cases in Baton Rouge, Lafayette, Lake Charles, New Orleans and throughout Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. Contact us online or call 877-247-3310 for a free consultation.
