Las Cruces Brain and Spine Injury Attorney

Protecting the Rights of Those Seriously Harmed Across New Mexico

At the Law Offices of Ruben Ortiz, we believe in doing things differently from most law firms. Did you know that personal injury law firms may charge between 33 1/3% and 50% of your settlement in contingency fees after your case is won? Imagine that you won $100,000 for an injury claim, only to find that you actually only got $67,000 or, worse yet, $50,000. Can you still even afford to recover comfortably at that point? Maybe not!
At the Law Offices of Ruben Ortiz, our personal injury attorney thinks the client who was injured should be the one who benefits the most from a winning claim. In order to keep things fair and keep our clients happy, we collect a contingency fee amount of just 25% when a case settles without a lawsuit being filed. The same $100,000 win mentioned before would equal a full $75,000 for our client,  in other words, when you pay less attorney fees, you get to keep more money in your pocket.  No Upfront Fees: We Only Get Paid If You Do!

Brain and spine injuries can have debilitating effects that may last a lifetime. They can result from various accidents and lead to severe pain, mobility issues, and speech problems, among other symptoms. These injuries often require extensive medical care and can cause the injured party to miss work.

Common Causes of Brain and Spine Injuries

Generally, spinal injuries result from a forceful blow to the spine that damages the delicate spinal cord and nerves. Similarly, brain injuries can occur when the head is violently jolted or struck by an object.

Common causes of brain and spine injuries include, but are not limited to, the following:

If you or a loved one was harmed because of another party’s negligence or recklessness, take action as soon as possible. Reach out to our Las Cruces brain and spine injury lawyer to discuss your case.

The Effects of Brain and Spine Injuries

Brain and spine injuries can be incredibly serious. They can have devastating impacts on a person’s life – both physically and mentally.

These types of injuries can lead to a variety of symptoms, including:

  • Severe pain
  • Difficulty speaking
  • Loss of motor control
  • Constant feeling of fatigue
  • Memory loss

In addition, some spinal cord injuries can result in quadriplegia or paraplegia – the inability to control the arms and/or legs.

Proper medical attention is always necessary to treat these injuries. Accident victims might need to spend a lengthy period in the hospital for diagnoses, surgery, and recovery. Once discharged, they may also need to receive regular treatments and physical therapy.

The costs for hospital stays, doctor’s visits, and other medical services can add up quickly. Expenses for brain and spine injuries can easily range from tens of thousands of dollars to even millions.

Recovering Compensation for Damages

If you or a loved one was injured in an accident caused by someone else and you suffered a brain or spine injury, you may be entitled to seek compensation for damages. Ruben Ortiz does not charge for consultations and has no upfront fees. You only pay him if and when you win. Contact him today. 

Below are the expenses and losses you could be reimbursed for:

  • Past and future medical bills
  • Lost wages
  • Loss of earning capacity
  • Mental anguish
  • Emotional distress
  • Pain/suffering
  • Loss of enjoyment of life

Understanding the full value of your claim and pursuing the financial recovery you need and deserve requires careful consideration of numerous factors.

Compensation need not cover only existing bills related to treatment and care but also potential future expenses. You may need to think about things like necessary long-term care or modifications to your home or vehicle to accommodate the effects of your injury.

Another consideration is the amount of time you have to miss work to recover, which could affect your income. Additionally, depending on the severity of your injuries, you might not be able to return to the position you had before your accident. Thus, your earning capacity may be diminished.

Our brain and spine injury attorney in Las Cruces works toward obtaining just compensation for clients. We thoroughly investigate these cases, looking at every detail as it applies now or in the future. Additionally, we call upon experts, such as doctors, financial analysts, and mental health experts, to provide testimony about the extent of physical and emotional injuries and their impact on future income.
