Lantana is a small coastal town that traces its beginnings to the mid-1800s, making it one of the South Florida coast’s oldest communities. Its oceanside location made fising a natural early industry for Lantana, just as it was for other Palm Beach County waterfront communities. Later, oysters took center stage in local commerce. Incorporated in 1921, Lantana’s population of about 10,000 typically swells with an influx of visitors during the winter season. Lantana is known within Florida as the site of the state’s last remaining hospital dedicated to the treatment of tuberculosis.

As experienced Lantana car accident attorneys, we know that many kinds of injuries can happen when you’re involved in a traffic crash. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirm that motor vehicle accidents are the leading cause of spinal cord injuries. These potentially life-changing injuries affect the vertebrae that make up the spinal column that stretches from the neck to the lower back. When the spinal cord is damaged, the effects can be devastating and can affect many different bodily systems. Severe outcomes include such problems as paralysis, breathing difficulty, and hosts of neurological issues.
