Spinal cord injuries occur in many common scenarios throughout Peoria. Some of the most common causes include:
A car accident caused by an at fault party
Falls at home, retail stores, or workplaces
Sports injuries and recreational accidents
Unsafe products or machinery involving a product manufacturer
Acts of another’s negligence leading to violent trauma

While Peoria-specific SCI data is limited, national research provides insight into how often spinal cord injuries occur and why legal action may be necessary.
According to the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center (NSCISC), motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of spinal cord injuries in the U.S. They also report that spinal cord injuries often involve long-term complications such as chronic pain, reduced motor function, and significant medical expenses or future medical expenses.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) notes that fall-related injuries, sports incidents, and violent trauma also remain leading causes of spinal cord injuries across the country. These injuries can affect mobility, blood pressure regulation, breathing, bowel and bladder control, and overall quality of life.
