A traumatic brain injury is any injury to the brain caused by an external impact that disrupts brain function. Symptoms vary from headaches and memory issues to changes in mood and behavior. It is important to seek medical care promptly and discuss your case with a qualified attorney to understand your options.

Possible compensation includes medical bills, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, future care needs, and non-economic damages for pain and suffering. The amount depends on severity, prognosis, and covered expenses.
