A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a disruption of brain function caused by an external impact. Symptoms vary and may include headaches, memory problems, dizziness, and mood changes. A medical evaluation is essential. Legally, claims address medical costs, rehabilitation, lost wages, and non-monetary impacts.
California generally allows up to two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim, though exceptions apply. Early legal guidance helps protect your rights and deadlines.
Compensation can cover medical expenses, rehabilitation, lost income, future care, and pain and suffering, depending on case specifics and evidence.
Having professional guidance is not required but can help you navigate medical, insurance, and legal steps and improve outcomes.
Bring medical records, accident reports, insurance correspondence, wage statements, and a list of questions to your initial meeting.
Fault is established by reviewing the incident, medical history, and, when needed, expert input. We look at negligence, liability, and causation.
Many cases settle out of court; some go to trial. We prepare for trial when necessary while pursuing the best possible result.
Medical records should show the injury and treatment history. We can work with less-than-perfect documentation and obtain missing information.
Many lawyers work on a contingency basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and a percentage of the award if the case resolves in your favor.
Case duration varies by complexity, but many TBI claims take months to a few years, depending on evidence, negotiations, and court schedules.
