Traumatic brain injury refers to a brain injury caused by an external force. It can affect thinking, movement, mood, and daily function, and may require long-term care.
Key elements in a TBI case include establishing fault, documenting injuries with medical records, calculating medical and rehabilitation costs, and pursuing appropriate damages through negotiation or litigation.
Glossary of common terms you may encounter in a TBI case, such as negligence, liability, damages, and settlement.

A traumatic brain injury is a brain injury caused by an external force. It may affect thinking, movement, mood, and daily functioning. A lawyer helps protect your rights by investigating fault, gathering medical records, and pursuing appropriate compensation. In California, start the process early to preserve evidence and timelines.
In California, the general statute of limitations for personal injury is two years, but there are exceptions and complexity in medical cases. An attorney can determine the correct deadlines for your situation and help you meet them. Missing deadlines can bar recovery.
Damages may include medical expenses, future care costs, rehabilitation, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, and non-economic losses like pain and suffering. A lawyer helps quantify these costs and present them to insurers or a court.
You do not necessarily have to go to court. Many TBI claims are settled through negotiations or mediation. A lawyer can pursue litigation if a fair settlement cannot be reached and prepare for trial if needed.
Many TBI lawyers work on a contingency basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and attorney fees come from a portion of any recovery. Ask about fees and agreements during your free consultation.
Bring any medical records, bills, police or incident reports, insurance information, witness contacts, and a list of questions. Having documentation helps the attorney assess value and strategy.
Yes. If the other party is at fault or shared fault exists, you can pursue a claim. A lawyer evaluates liability and builds a case to support your rights.
Settlements can include compensation for future medical costs and ongoing care if appropriate. Your attorney will project long-term needs to seek a fair settlement.
