Our Georgia personal injury attorneys prepare each case for results

Our attorneys are committed to providing personal attention to each client we represent. Therefore, whether you come to us with a whiplash injury or a spinal cord injury, you can count on us to provide you and your case with both compassion and full attention to detail.

Unless a neck injury involves a permanent disability, insurance adjusters and jurors may believe your neck injury has little impact on your mobility or your future abilities. However, our lawyers know how to present complex medical evidence in court — detailing the severity of your injury and the impact the injury has and will continue to have on your life. We present testimony of the projected future expenses you will incur, such as the need for daily personal care assistance.

Scott, Wells & McElwee, P.C. represents accident victims who have suffered all types of neck injuries, including:

  • Spinal cord injuries: We are strong, committed advocates for clients who have suffered a neck injury that resulted in paralysis. Quadriplegia (paralysis in the upper and lower extremities) generally results from a broken neck or other spinal cord damage in the neck region. Paraplegia (paralysis in the lower extremities) generally results from lower spinal cord damage in a back injury.
  • Whiplash injuries: Our attorneys are always available to evaluate potential claims involving serious whiplash injuries. Although insurance representatives may view this type of neck injury as relatively minor, we recognize that these injuries can contribute to serious, on-going medical conditions, such as chronic pain, numbness or tingling throughout the spine, neck, arms and hands. If you have been involved in a rear-end collision or other accident, it is critical that you seek proper medical attention and follow-up care to ensure the injury does not progress.

Discuss your neck injury and your accident with the dedicated attorneys at our Athens law firm. Whether the injury resulted from a car accident or a slip and fall, we will provide you with the compassionate, sincere, experienced and attentive legal service to which you are entitled.
