A glossary of common terms you may encounter in a TBI case.
Liability means legal responsibility for an incident and its injuries.
Damages are compensation for medical costs, lost wages, rehabilitation, and pain and suffering.
In California, there is a deadline to file a personal injury claim, typically within two years of the injury, with exceptions.

A traumatic brain injury is any injury to the brain caused by an external event such as a blow to the head, a fall, or a car crash. TBIs can range from mild concussions to severe injuries that affect thinking, memory, balance, and mood. If you or a loved one has suffered a TBI in Stanford, speaking with an attorney can help you understand options and begin the process toward recovery and fair compensation.
California generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim, with exceptions for minors or government claims. Timelines can vary based on the facts, so it is important to consult quickly.
Damages in a TBI case may include medical expenses, rehabilitation, lost wages, future care costs, and non economic damages such as pain and suffering. An attorney can help quantify and pursue these damages.
While not required, having a lawyer can improve your ability to navigate medical records, insurance demands, and California law. A TBI claim can be time consuming, and professional guidance helps protect your rights.
Many personal injury attorneys work on a contingency basis, meaning you pay nothing up front and a portion of the recovery is the fee. There is typically no upfront cost for a consultation.
Bring medical records, accident reports, photos, witness contact information, and a list of expenses. Also bring insurance information and any correspondence from insurers.
Most TBI cases are resolved through settlements, but some may go to trial if negotiations fail. We prepare for trial to protect your rights.
Proving damages includes medical documentation, expert opinions, and reliable testimony. Your medical team and our firm help connect the dots.
In many cases you can settle without going to court through negotiations, mediation, and demand letters. However some cases proceed to court when needed.
Case duration varies with severity and evidence; some resolve in months, others take years. We keep you informed about timelines and milestones.
