PERSONAL INJURY: BRAIN INJURIES According to the Centers for Disease Control, at least 5.3 million Americans require help with daily living activities as a result of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Of the 1.4 million Americans who sustain a TBI each year, 50,000 will die, 235,000 will be hospitalized and 1.1 million will be treated by emergency personnel. TBIs occur when a blow or other injury to the head impairs the normal functioning of the brain. Most brain injuries are caused by falls, motor vehicle accidents, an object striking the victim or assaults. These injuries are often caused by another party’s negligence, and frequently have severe and debilitating physical, behavioral, emotional and economic consequences.
If you or a loved one has suffered a traumatic brain injury, it is crucial to consult with an experienced personal injury lawyer as soon as possible. Our skilled trial lawyers can help you secure all of the compensation to which you may be entitled. This may include compensation for pain and suffering, financial loss, emotional distress and past, current and future medical expenses. In some cases, you may also be entitled to punitive damages for another party’s wrongdoing. Our dedicated attorneys can also help you deal with your insurance company, as well as the insurer of the other party or parties. The insurance companies have lawyers working hard to minimize their payouts; you need a lawyer who will work just as hard for you.
