Spinal Medicine for Dummies (*Lawyers*)

L4-5 disc protrusion with severe bilateral stenosis and disk desiccation” shouldn’t lose your case just because it sounds like a Wi-Fi password. Looking at an MRI sometimes feels like reading a foreign language: annular tears, osteophyte formation, edema, impingement. And then those things called facets. Everyone nods, but what the hell does it all mean and what’s relevant?

Then, go explain that to the jury without everybody, including the court reporter who hates you using those big words, being confused.

We’ll cover the greatest hits of MRI reports, look at the actual MRI scans and animations, and figure out what all that means. And hopefully answer why “all the pain is due to a degenerative spine condition” is the biggest defense bullshit there is.

No medical degree required. Mild sarcasm included.
