A traumatic brain injury is a brain injury caused by a blow or jolt that disrupts brain function. If you experienced a TBI due to someone else’s actions, you may be entitled to compensation for medical bills and other losses.
Fault in TBI cases is typically shown through evidence of negligent or reckless actions, such as distracted driving or unsafe conditions. Medical experts and accident reconstruction can help establish causation.
Possible compensation includes medical expenses, rehabilitation, lost wages, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering. The amount depends on the severity, prognosis, and impact on daily life.
In California, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years. There are exceptions for minors and other special circumstances, so consult promptly.
Having a lawyer helps you navigate complex laws, gather evidence, and negotiate with insurers. An attorney can ensure deadlines are met and protect your rights throughout the process.
Bring medical records, incident reports, contact information for caregivers, and any documentation of losses. If possible, bring any insurance details and a list of questions you want answered.
Many cases settle out of court, but some proceed to trial if a fair settlement cannot be reached. We prepare thoroughly to pursue the best possible result.
Settlement payments are typically delivered as a one-time sum or structured payments, depending on the agreement. Your attorney can explain options and help you choose the best arrangement.
Ongoing medical care does not prevent you from pursuing a claim, but it can affect valuation and timelines. We account for ongoing treatment in your compensation calculations.
Pain and suffering are typically valued based on multiple factors, including severity and impact on daily life. Your overall losses, including medical goals and future care, influence the final amount.
