A traumatic brain injury is damage to the brain caused by an external impact, such as a crash or fall, which can affect memory, balance, and cognitive function. The exact effects vary, and treatment plans depend on the injury’s severity and location. Ongoing medical care and rehabilitation are often required.
Proving fault typically involves showing another party acted negligently or recklessly and that their actions caused your injury. This may require accident reports, witness statements, and medical records to establish causal connection.
Compensation can cover medical expenses, rehabilitation, lost income, reduced earning capacity, and pain and suffering, among other losses. The amount depends on the specific facts of the case and the long-term impact on the individual.
While a lawyer is not always required, having experienced counsel can help you navigate insurance negotiations, gather evidence, and pursue the best possible outcome.
Case timelines vary by complexity, but many TBIs move forward over several months to a few years, depending on medical needs and court schedules.
Bring your medical records, accident reports, witness contact information, and any notes about your daily activities and symptoms.
Most cases settle before trial, but you may need to appear in court if a fair settlement cannot be reached.
We work on a contingency basis in most cases, meaning you pay nothing upfront and receive an agreed portion of any recovery if we win.
Liens can affect your net recovery; our team works to manage liens and maximize your final settlement or judgment amount.
In many cases, receiving medical care while pursuing a claim is possible, and we can help coordinate treatment options and document costs for your claim.
