What a brain injury attorney may say.

Brain injury (also referred to as traumatic brain injury or TBI) is injury to the brain resulting from an accident or injury. The injury may affect a small area or may affect a large area of the brain. When the head is hit hard, brain injury may happen. Hard hits may cause the brain to move in the skull, or break the skull and hurt the brain upon contact.

There are different levels of brain injury.

The degree of brain injury can greatly. For the purpose of suit, the level of brain injury is categorized as: mild, moderate, or severe. This is based on your doctors statements and your medical records.

Mild brain injury: usually has shorter term or temporary affects. Symptoms such as confusion, depression, memory problems, headaches, nausea, sickness, and emotional problems.
Moderate brain injury: causes many of the same symptoms as mild, but the symptoms usually last longer and are usually more severe.
Severe brain injury: is often life-changing and debilitating. Symptoms can be minimally responsive or vegetative state, coma, brain death, patients who tend neither to speak (mutism) nor move (akinesia), or a condition where the patient is aware and awake, but cannot move or communicate because of complete paralysis of nearly all voluntary muscles in the body except for the eyes, (locked in syndrome).

Can I file an injury claim for compensation if I have suffered a brain injury?

Yes. If you suffer, from injury, mild, moderate, or severe, you may be entitled to compensation. This depends on the circumstances, the factors surrounding liability.

Can I sue for a loved one that suffered brain injury, then became incapacitated or died due to the brain injury?"


Entirely depends on the liability and facts surrounding their claim.

Does a brain injury last?"


Brain injuries are unique to each person. Brain injuries are never exactly the same. People have different abilities to "see" and compensate for their brain injury symptoms. Time, correct diagnosis, treatment and family support influence the outcomes. Recovery ranges from nearly complete to very little.

Not all head hits cause brain injury.


Your body and brain are quite resilient and can repair or compensate for some hits, even those that are very hard. It all depends on the person and circumstance.

Is Mild Brain Injury unimportant?

Any head trauma or injury to the brain warrants immediate medical attention.

Where the injury is, is important. Some brain areas are more susceptible to injury. Injury can result in different effects on the person. Mild brain injury can result in the same effects that a moderate or severe injury does. For example a car accident; The brain can be jarred around within the skull. People having a mild brain injury in a car accident usually do not become unconscious and are released from medical care quickly. The person does not know that they have injury. Shortly thereafter the victim, family or friends notice personality or motor skill changes. Changes may be hardly noticeable to obvious.


Acquired VS traumatic brain injury.
Traumatic (TBI): is a hit or jolt to the head or penetrating head injury that disrupts brain function.
Acquired (ABI): is an brain injury that is not hereditary, present at birth, or degenerative in nature.
An example of ABI would be a heart attack which causes lack of oxygen to the brain.

Brain contusion is an injury where brain tissue becomes bruised and swollen. Blood may mix with the brain tissue.

Do toxic substances cause brain damage?  Yes.

How much will a brain injury attorney charge for my brain injury case?
Many brain injury attorneys tend to work on a contingent fee basis and are paid from any recovery awarded.
