        "text": "It is advisable to contact a paraplegia injury attorney as soon as possible after the accident, once your immediate medical needs are addressed. Early engagement allows the attorney to promptly investigate the incident, preserve critical evidence, and speak with witnesses while memories are fresh. Waiting too long can make it more challenging to build a strong case and may impact the statute of limitations, which is the legal deadline for filing a lawsuit. Prompt action helps protect your legal rights.",
