1) Disc Degeneration: chemical changes associated with aging causes discs to weaken, but without a herniation.

2) Prolapse: the form or position of the disc changes with some slight impingement into the spinal canal. Also called a bulge or protrusion.

3) Extrusion: the gel-like nucleus pulposus breaks through the tire-like wall (annulus fibrosus) but remains within the disc.

4) Sequestration or Sequestered Disc: the nucleus pulposus breaks through the annulus fibrosus and lies outside the disc in the spinal canal (HNP).

I have represented many clients with back injuries. Most recently I completed a case with a fracture to the mid back vertebra and recovered $270,000.00 for my client. Other cases in 2008 included a $350,000.00 settlement for a disc herniated, with pre-existing surgery to this location, as well as a $300,000.00 policy limits settlement for a pinched nerve at L3-4. In each of these cases the insurance carrier refused to settle before suit was filed. The strength of each case was the preparation of the liability and damage claims. We leave nothing to chance and we do not miss a single element of damages. In each of these cases we used vocational rehabilitation experts, economist and the treating doctors to mount a presentation that netted the results our client's deserved.
