How We Help Back Injury Victims in Chicago
At Morici, Longo & Associates, our Chicago back injury lawyers are experienced at recognizing back injuries and communicating with our client's health care providers to ensure that the full extent of the injury is compensated for and made part of our representation.
Often, our clients have undergone discectomies, fusions, and / or laminectomies as a result of injuries to the intervertebral discs and extrusion of the nucleus pulposus, which narrows the neuro-foramina and puts pressure on the nerve, resulting in arm pain, numbness, and / or tingling.
We have decades of experience in getting our clients what they need following herniated disc, bulging disc, and rupture disc injuries. We are known throughout Illinois for our success in the workers' compensation arena, where we have helped construction workers, factory workers, public employees, and other working people obtain the workers' compensation benefits they deserve. We are also know for our high-value verdicts and settlements resulting from personal injury lawsuits.

How Was Your Back Injured?

We also see many fracture and bruising injuries that occur from impact, which can be caused by falling debris or supplies. We also encounter many clients with whiplash injuries, in which their neck and back are moved violently and quickly, causing tissues to break, stretch, and become temporarily or permanently damaged.

If your looking for experienced, dedicated, firm that will treat you right ... Hire these guys!! They fought for me and made sure I was being treated fair, got me justice , and this was some 20 years ago. As I had a situation that arose, I recently called to speak to James, He remembered me, and we talked like we were family, he gave me a few points that helped and would help if he could, but my situation wasn't valid .. I always tell friends that if they need an attorney, I give them this firms number!!! Super nice people, AAA+++- Joe M.
