A traumatic brain injury occurs when an external force harms the brain, potentially affecting thinking, memory, balance, and behavior. Diagnosis typically involves a medical examination, imaging tests such as CT or MRI, and assessment by specialists to determine severity and plan treatment.
In California, most personal injury cases must be filed within two years of the injury. Some exceptions may apply depending on who was at fault and the identity of the defendant. If the claim involves a government entity or a minor, deadlines can differ, so it is important to consult a lawyer early to avoid missing a deadline.
A TBI claim can cover medical expenses, rehabilitation, lost wages, future care needs, and pain and suffering. Settlement or verdict may include non economic damages, and compensation aims to restore as much as possible the injured person is quality of life.
While you can file a claim on your own, a lawyer can help position you for a fair settlement, collect evidence, and handle negotiations. We provide guidance and advocacy through every step, including court if needed.
