Law Firm Overview Free Consultation

The Abelson Law Firm dedicates its legal practice to strokes induced by chiropractic neck manipulations. They represent people who have suffered a stroke induced by a chiropractic neck manipulation. They care about their clients and try to help them obtain the fair compensation that their injury and future well-being demands. They understand what causes chiropractic strokes and the long lasting health effects of a brain stem stroke.

Chiropractors don’t like to admit that neck adjustments may cause strokes. Often times they deny that a stroke can occur due to their own manipulation. Yet the medical literature is clear that this indeed happens. The frequency of chiropractic induced stroke is unclear and most cases go unreported.

For example, the adjustment may cause a tear in the vertebral artery of the highest neck while the patient is on the table. The arterial tear causes a slow internal bleed in the intimal lining of the neck artery; a clot then forms, the clot breaks free and occludes the flow of blood to the brain, causing the brain stem stroke.

The stroke victim may not associate the two events. The family may never know that the victim had recently undergone a neck manipulation by a chiropractor. Therefore, it is obvious that these cases are under-reported in the medical literature.

Slowly but surely, word is spreading that chiropractic manipulations carry grave risks. Autopsy reports throughout the country, conducted by independent state medical examiners, have confirmed that chiropractic neck manipulations caused stroke and death of the patient. You should know what the risks are before a chiropractor abruptly twists a vulnerable area of your body.

The Abelson Law Firm has offices in Washington, D.C. and takes cases of chiropractic malpractice from across the country. The Abelson Law Firm works with a physician who will help determine the extent of your stroke injury and disability due to chiropractic manipulation, and the care you will require in the future.
