Brain Injury
Our personal injury law firm has handled hundreds of claims for brain injuries, ranging from persons left comatose for extended periods to those who have suffered concussions, post-concussive syndrome or mild traumatic brain injuries.
Damages from the most severe brain injuries such as coma, wounds penetrating the skull, or so forth, are generally well accepted by most defendants and their insurers, even if some of their later consequences may be disputed. On the other hand, defendants and insurance adjusters sometimes dispute the damages in the so-called "mild traumatic brain injury" cases, claiming that subtle effects seen in memory, cognitive function, or emotional lability can be attributed to psychological or other factors that they claim are unrelated to the accident.
Our personal injury attorneys can work with our client's neuropsychologists, neurosurgeons, neurologists and other doctors to document the impairment and develop an understandable explanation for jurors or other laypersons of the mild traumatic brain injury.
