A traumatic brain injury is an injury to the brain that can affect thinking, memory, balance, and behavior. It may require ongoing medical care and rehabilitation.
Fault can be shown through police reports, eyewitness accounts, and medical evidence linking the crash to the injury. A claim may be pursued against one or more responsible parties.
California allows a limited time to file a personal injury claim. The exact deadline depends on the case and parties involved.
Possible compensation includes medical expenses, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, and pain and suffering.
While you can file a claim without an attorney, having legal counsel can help navigate deadlines, protect rights, and maximize recovery.
Bring evidence of injuries, medical bills, accident details, and any correspondence with insurers to your consult.
Most cases settle before trial, but some may proceed to court if a fair settlement can’t be reached.
Medical bills are typically reviewed and documented, and insurers evaluate damages for past and future care.
Resolution time varies by case, but a straightforward claim may take several months to a year or more depending on complexity.
Pain and suffering are determined by factors like injury severity, impact on life, and duration of recovery; methods include multipliers and definitions of damages.
