traumatic brain injury

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a type of catastrophic injury that can impair its victims for years, possibly even the rest of their lives. Oftentimes these injuries are missed by primary care physicians and chiropractors that don’t recognize or otherwise miss symptoms. This leaves patients struggling to find answers for their memory issues, decision making and lack of planning that used to be rock solid.

Sometimes victims of a TBI may not be capable of pursuing action, their families have become frustrated on their behalf, and the defendant will deny they played any role in this tragedy. You will need an attorney that is well-versed in identifying these issues, as well as have familiarity with these proceedings. Making sure you hire an attorney that is capable of handling all aspects of these types of cases is critical so that you and your family can focus your energy on recovering.
