A traumatic brain injury is a disruption in brain function caused by an impact to the head. Symptoms vary and may include confusion, memory problems, dizziness, headaches, and changes in mood or behavior.
In California, most personal injury claims must be filed within two years of the injury date. There can be exceptions, so it is important to consult early.
Damages may include medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering.
Having legal guidance helps ensure documentation is complete, deadlines are met, and the claim is presented effectively to insurers or in court.
Fault is determined through evidence such as police reports, witness statements, medical records, and expert assessments of impact and causation.
Bring accident details, medical records, a list of expenses, and any correspondence with insurers.
Timelines vary by case; some settle within months while others may take longer if a lawsuit is needed.
While many cases settle, some proceed to trial if a fair settlement cannot be reached or if the case involves complex issues.
Fees are typically on a contingency basis, meaning payment is a percentage of the recovery and only if you win or settle your claim.
