A traumatic brain injury is a strike to the head or a jolt that disrupts brain function. Symptoms vary and can include headaches, dizziness, memory issues, and changes in mood or behavior. Medical evaluation is essential to determine the extent of injury and required care.
A claim may be viable when someone else’s negligence caused the injury and you can show damages like medical bills and lost income. California law requires timely filing and proper documentation; we evaluate the facts to determine the best path.
Damages may include medical expenses, loss of earnings, future care costs, pain and suffering, and impact on daily living. A full accounting of current and future needs helps maximize compensation.
In California, personal injury claims generally must be filed within two years of the injury date, with some exceptions. Minors have different timelines and should consult counsel for guidance.
While not required, a lawyer helps navigate complex liability and damages, gather records, negotiate with insurers, and protect your rights throughout the process.
Bring details about when the injury occurred, medical visits and tests, documents related to the accident, police or incident reports, and any communications with insurers.
Many personal injury lawyers work on contingency, meaning you pay nothing unless we win. Fees are typically paid from the settlement or verdict.
After filing, you can expect negotiations, possible mediation, and, if needed, litigation. We will guide you through each step and keep you informed.
