Injuries Causing Chronic Pain

Life-Long, Life-Changing Pain

Chronic Pain is life altering and lifelong. It can only be managed. For the most part, there is no cure. If you suffer from chronic pain, you know that no words can convey the global, catastrophic losses you have suffered.

People who suffer from chronic pain are treated with multiple pain medications. While these can lower one's pain level, patients still suffer frequent episodes of severe pain or "breakthrough pain". Those who cannot be successively managed with conservative measures must also be treated with more aggressive pain management techniques. These include steroid and other types of injections, spinal cord nerve stimulators, occipital nerve stimulators, intrathecal pain drug delivery systems, and surgery. Some patients with catastrophic pain must seek in-patient treatment at multi-disciplinary pain management programs. All of these pain management modalities pose significant risks, have known side effects, and are very costly.

The lawyers at Jouard & Pickering have helped many clients and their families obtain the resources they need for the treatment of chronic pain. We understand the medical literature and treatment regimens which pain physicians recommend. We have particular skill with both intrathecal drug delivery systems and nerve stimulators. Among the experts we have retained for clients are the former Editor of the leading medical book on Pain Medicine and a former President of both the International Association for the Study of Pain and the American Pain Society. We know pain. We have the tools to educate juries about your pain and its overwhelming effect on your life, your ability to earn an income, and your ability to care for your family.
