A traumatic brain injury is a disruption of brain function caused by an impact or jolt to the head, which may involve concussion, bleeding, or swelling.
Key steps include documenting injuries, establishing liability, calculating medical expenses and lost income, and negotiating with insurers or pursuing a court case when needed.
Common terms you may see when pursuing a TBI claim include liability, damages, negotiation, and statute of limitations.
Liability refers to who is legally responsible for causing the injury and may involve multiple parties in an accident.
Damages cover medical bills, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, and non-economic losses like pain and suffering.
Negligence means a failure to exercise reasonable care that leads to someone’s injury, which can support a claim for compensation.
