    CAR ACCIDENT

    “Right before the pandemic shut down in March of 2020, I was in a car accident which left me with lower back pain. With surgery pending, I felt sad and hopeless until a friend of my daughter recommended me to Sweeney and Merrigan Law LLP. It was awesome working with Erin E McHugh, but Alexa Baker was there to answer any question I had no matter what time of the day it was. And that assured me that someone cared about my health. I just want to say thanks for all the help and support and I would definitely recommend the Law firm to others.”

    Dog Bite

    “This team listened to our cry for help.

    Our daughter was attacked by a dog (pit) and we were lost on how to get help on medical bills. We decided to take the legal route and sue the ones responsible for our 3 year olds pain and trauma. This team called, texted, emailed, and personally came to our house (twice, from Boston to SPRINGFIELD) in support for our family.

    To Carleen our attorney, you have helped me personally go through the toughest thing a mother can go through, seeing my daughter suffer 3 surgeries. Scars she’ll have for the rest of her life but a settlement that will help her overcome and future obstacle.

    This team during court presented esteem professionalism, as the Judge took notice and thanked them directly for. I pray I never have to repeat this process, but I sleep easy knowing they’re in my corner.”

    Drunk Driver Accident

    “I would definitely recommend Sweeney Merrigan to anyone!
    I can’t say enough about Sweeney Merrigan. As someone who worked in this industry, I have seen how easy it is to be consumed with so much work that communication suffers. I was in a near-fatal accident, where I was hit head-on by a drunk driver. I chose Sweeney Merrigan and I’m so happy I did! Tucker was always very prompt in returning emails and phone calls. Any questions or concerns, he would make sure to clarify and explain everything. It says a lot to have someone who truly cares about their clientele! I would definitely recommend Sweeney Merrigan to anyone!”

    MORE ABOUT
    Spinal Cord Stimulator Malpractice

    Suffering from back pain can be debilitating and leave people feeling helpless. If you suffer from chronic back pain, it can sometimes seem like there is no solution to help you recover. However, one option available to individuals with chronic back pain is spinal cord stimulator. The spinal cord stimulator is often only ever offered when nothing else has provided a patient with relief.

    While this treatment option is often the only solution to chronic pain, there are many risks involved that could result in serious injuries for patients.

To schedule a free consultation and learn more about how our spinal cord stimulator malpractice lawyers can help you, call our office at 774-341-5778 or complete our contact form today.

    Steps You Should Take Following a Spinal Cord Stimulator Injury

    There are a number of risks associated with having a spinal cord stimulator implanted. Unfortunately, these risks are made more significant when medical malpractice is a factor. Patients who have been cared for by a medical professional who acted negligently may suffer significant harm associated with the procedure including paralysis in worst case scenarios. If you have suffered due to spinal cord stimulator malpractice, there are several steps you should take for your overall well being:

    • Seek medical care: An injury relating to spinal cord stimulator malpractice can be serious, especially if left untreated. It is crucial that you seek medical help as soon as possible.
    • Keep records: It is crucial that you keep any records of the symptoms you have experienced since you were injured due to spinal cord stimulator malpractice. You should also gather any relevant medical records.
    • File a report: Following an injury caused by a spinal cord stimulator, you should file an incident report with the appropriate medical board.
    • Document losses: You should keep documentation of all losses including medical bills and documentation of lost wages.

    In addition to the above steps, it is crucial that you seek the help of one of our spinal cord stimulator malpractice lawyers as soon as possible.

    Can You Recover Damages From a Spinal Cord Stimulator Malpractice Claim?

    When a medical professional fails to uphold the duty of care owed to their patients, the resulting injuries can be severe. This is especially true in the case of spinal cord stimulators as this procedure can result in paralysis for the patient if the medical professionals involved are negligent. If you have suffered as a result of spinal cord stimulator malpractice, you may be eligible to collect compensation for your losses. The damages you may be eligible to collect are as follows:

    • Medical bills: After suffering a life-altering injury due to a medical professional’s negligence, you may require extensive medical care which can be highly costly. You should not have to pay your medical bills on your own.
    • Lost wages: If your injury has prevented you from being able to work, you should be compensated for all present and future wages lost.
    • Pain and suffering: Victims of spinal cord stimulator malpractice should be compensated for the pain and suffering they have endured.
    • Wrongful death: If you have lost a loved one due to medical negligence relating to a spinal cord stimulator, you should be compensated for your unimaginable loss.

    If you are unsure what damages you may be eligible to collect, the spinal cord stimulator malpractice lawyers at Sweeney Merrigan Personal Injury Lawyers may be able to help by going over the specific details of your case.
