Contingency Fee Percentages. The typical personal injury lawyer will charge a contingency fee to handle your case. Some state statutes limit the percentage that a lawyer can take as a contingency fee. Most contingency fees are between 33 and 40%, but you can always try to negotiate a reduced or alternative agreement. In the majority of cases, a personal injury lawyer will receive 33.33% (or one third) of any settlement.
Lumbar surgery refers to any type of surgery in the lumbar spine, or lower back, between one or more of the L1-S1 levels. There are two general types of lumbar spine surgery that comprise the most common surgical procedures for the lower back:umbar Decompression. The goal of a decompression surgery is usually to relieve pain caused by nerve root pinching. There are two common causes of lumbar nerve root pressure: from a lumbar herniated disc or lumbar spinal stenosis. This type of pain is usually referred to as a radiculopathy, or sciatica.
As other parts of your back work harder or move in unaccustomed ways to make up for the injured muscles, they also become more prone to injury. Treatment for lower back pain is provided at Laser Spine Institute through a variety of procedures such as a foraminotomy, laminotomy, discectomy, or a facet thermal ablation. Our surgeons have performed these procedures hundreds of times, helping patients find relief from lower back pain.
