Valuing Traumatic Brain Injuries

It is impossible to know how much your brain injury claim is worth until our attorneys understand the facts of your case, investigate your accident, and go over the losses you have suffered. With the help of medical and financial experts, if needed, we will calculate the full value of your injuries and damages. Depending on your losses, the value of your claim may include medical bills, future medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, loss of earning capacity, and other damages that you have suffered.  

Traumatic Brain Injury Cases

Traumatic brain injuries are generally caused by a major impact to the head. Brain injury cases that we frequently handle include the following:

Traumatic Brain Injury Symptoms 

Some brain injuries are temporary, and injury victims may make a full recovery. Other brain injuries are permanent and debilitating. Symptoms of traumatic brain injuries vary in severity, and a brain injury sufferer may experience any number and combination of symptoms. Common symptoms include impaired cognitive function, headaches, visual impairment, sleep troubles, and problems with movement and body functions. Severe traumatic brain injuries can also lead to death. 

Wrongful Death Claim

When accidents lead to fatal brain injuries, surviving family members may recover compensation in some cases. Our attorneys have helped family members secure compensation for losses, such as loss of the deceased’s financial support, funeral expenses, and loss of inheritance.

Compensation for emotional damages is generally not recoverable in wrongful death claims. There is an exception for brain injury victims who survived for some time after an accident. In these cases, if it can be shown that the victim suffered losses before he or she died, those losses, such as pain and suffering, may be recoverable.
