Many catastrophic paralysis claims in our area start with a familiar scenario: a sudden crash while commuting, turning into traffic, or traveling through changing conditions. Even when liability seems obvious at first, insurers may later argue the injury was caused by something else—or claim you contributed.
That’s why the early phase matters. The most damaging mistakes we see in paralysis claims are often simple:
- waiting too long to document symptoms and functional changes
- missing key medical records or imaging reports
- letting insurers shape the narrative before evidence is organized
In paralysis injury matters, time affects both the medical picture and the available proof—and Arizona deadlines can move faster than families expect.
