Lawyers for Clients Suffering from Spine and Nerve Damage in the Greenwich, Metro New York Area
Spinal cord injuries can disrupt nearly every aspect of a person’s life. Severe spinal cord injuries can cause intense pain, loss of movement, inability to sense temperature and touch, exaggerated reflexes and spasms, loss of bowel or bladder control, breathing difficulties, and more. In extreme cases, an injury to your spinal cord could result in paralysis or even death. If you or a loved one have suffered a spinal cord injury, the experienced lawyers at Mandelbaum Barrett PC may be able to help.
Common Causes of Spinal Cord Injuries
Spinal cord injuries can happen for countless reasons. The most common causes of spinal cord damage include but are not limited to:
- Construction site accidents;
- Gunshot wounds, assault, or other violence;
- Falls, including falls from heights or slip and fall accidents;
- Auto accidents;
- Truck accidents;
- Bus, train, and plane accidents;
- Falling objects;
- Sports injuries;
- Pedestrian and bicycle accidents; and
- Medical errors.
When a spinal cord injury is caused by another party’s negligence, the victim may be able to receive compensation for his or her damages through a personal injury lawsuit. Negligence occurs when a person or organization owes another party a duty of care and fails to uphold that duty. For example, if your landlord failed to maintain your building, and then a falling beam struck you and caused a spinal cord injury, he would likely be considered liable for your injury. Similarly, if you were hit by a drunk driver while crossing the road, the drunk driver would be considered negligent and may be required to compensate you for your damages.
Sometimes, the liable party is not an individual, but instead a company or organization. For example, if your spinal cord injury was caused by unsafe conditions in a retail store, the company that owns the store may be legally responsible for your injuries.

Thank you to Joe Peters. My first call after my son was in a terrible bike/car accident. With him in the ICU, Joe was able to give my Daughter in law the peace of mind she needed. And the first time I had called him about a different Bike accident, he returned my call from the airport on his way to his vacation – that was service way above and beyond – and so much appreciated.
Thank you for the personal attention I needed at a most difficult time in my life.

Mr Peters and Ms. Cahill are absolutely phenomenal professionals. I have had an exceptional experience with both of them. Not only do they exemplify deep legal knowledge and strategic insight, but they also bring an unmatched level of professionalism, empathy, and integrity to everything they do. They take the time to truly listen, explain complex matters clearly, and always act in their clients’ best interests. Beyond their legal expertise, they are genuinely kind, approachable, and trustworthy individuals—rare qualities that make all the difference. I can’t recommend them highly enough; anyone would be lucky to have them in their corner.

Several Years ago, I was in a horrific car accident. My dear friend was driving and was killed in the accident. I was hurt very badly as a passenger, and spent a fair amount of time in the hospital and then home recuperating from a TBI injury. Mike Jones represented me and was there from the start. He is now my Trustee and I am very happy that he is not only a really good lawyer, but an honest and decent human being. Please feel free to reach out to me any time to discuss Mike’s abilities.
