Brain Injuries

It is estimated that 8-million Americans a year suffer a brain injury. Two million of these people will have permanent impairments that will change their lives.

If brain injuries are severe, there may be profound loss of movement, coordination, and the ability to feel or to think. They can cause paralysis and mental retardation. The effects on the injured person and their family can be catastrophic. If the brain injury was caused by the wrongful act of another person or company, you may be entitled to compensation.

Common Causes of Brain Injuries

Brain injuries can be caused in many ways, including:

motor vehicle accidents;
diving, surfing, swimming accidents;
medical malpractice;
HMO and Medical Business Misconduct;
corporate negligence;
birth injuries;
defective medical devices;
pharmaceuticals;
aviation accidents;
falls and other accidents.

There are strict time limits you must meet to file a lawsuit. These time limits are complex and strictly enforced by the courts. It is in your best interest to speak to an attorney as soon as possible.

Though we understand that this is an excruciatingly difficult time for you, please be aware that it is critical that an investigation into the facts of the case be undertaken as soon as possible if you are considering filing a lawsuit. This is necessary to preserve evidence, to get information while memories are fresh, and to avoid losing your right to bring a lawsuit.

Reasons To File A Case

You not only deserve to be compensated for your pain and suffering and the loss of enjoyment of life, but, most importantly, you deserve to be free from your new financial hardships. You may no longer be able to work to support yourself and your family, to pay for your mounting medical bills, or to afford the extra costs of hiring help to do what you can no longer do around the house. Payment for your or a family member’s injuries is often critical to your and your family’s future.

Yet in most cases you will face an army of lawyers, an entire department at an insurance company, and the resources of a mega-corporation fighting you in order to avoid providing you the money you desperately need. In other words, their whole focus is to avoid claims or to settle with you for the least amount of money possible.
