Traumatic brain injuries include concussions, contusions, and other brain injuries caused by an impact or jolt. Symptoms may range from mild to severe and can evolve over days or weeks. A proper evaluation from medical professionals is essential to determine the extent of the injury.
Damages in a TBI case cover medical expenses, rehabilitation, lost wages, and pain and suffering. The amount depends on current and future costs and the impact on your daily life. A strong claim documents all losses with medical records and financial records.
In California, the general deadline to file a personal injury claim is two years from the date of injury. Some cases may have different limits. Early action helps preserve evidence and avoid issues with the statute of limitations.
Bring medical records, imaging results, accident or police reports, and a list of witnesses. Also bring questions, a summary of symptoms, work information, and your insurance details for discussion.
Many TBI cases settle without going to trial, but some may require court action if a fair settlement cannot be reached. We prepare for all paths to maximize your outcome and protect your rights.
We operate on a contingency basis, meaning there are no upfront fees and you don’t pay unless we recover compensation for you. Fees are typically a percentage of the recovery.
Yes. If a workplace incident caused the injury, you may pursue a third-party claim in addition to workers’ compensation. We evaluate all viable options and pursue the path with the best outcome.

Resolution timelines vary based on case complexity, evidence, and settlement opportunities. Some cases resolve within months; others may take longer if trial becomes necessary.
An uninsured party does not prevent recovery from other liable sources. We assess all possible routes to compensation and explain the options clearly.
