A Traumatic Brain Injury can Change the Course of Your Life. Let Our Experienced TBI Lawyers Help You Seek Financial Compensation.
While all injury types have the potential to be serious, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) can be particularly devastating. The brain is the body’s most delicate organ, and when it is impacted, the effects can be extensive. At the law office of Scott M. Brown & Associates, our traumatic brain injury lawyers know how devastating and costly a TBI can be, and we are here to help you seek compensation for the harm you have suffered.
What Is a Traumatic Brain Injury?
A traumatic brain injury refers to a bump, blow, or penetration injury to the head/brain that causes brain damage. Damage might include bruising in the brain, torn brain tissues, disruption of brain cells, bleeding, and more.
The effects of a traumatic brain injury can be very serious. In fact, a TBI can affect a person’s cognition, emotion, language, thinking, and sensation. This means that everything from memory and learning new information, to social appropriateness and the ability to speak, to sight and balance and more can be affected.
How do Traumatic Brain Injuries Occur?
As stated above, a TBI happens when the head/brain is bumped, struck with an object (blow to the head), or penetrated. In addition to these three primary causes, a TBI may also happen if the brain is deprived of oxygen, such as would be the case in a near-drowning experience.
There are numerous accident types that could result in a blow to the head, or force the brain to collide with the skull. For example, car accidents, pedestrian accidents, slip and falls, bicycle and motorcycle accidents, and more may all lead to TBIs.

Traumatic Brain Injuries are Costly
When a person suffers a TBI, his or her life may be significantly changed. The individual may be unable to care for him or herself for months or years, let alone be able to return to work and earn an income. The victim may need surgery to alleviate pressure in the brain or stop bleeding, and may also require prescription medications and other treatment options, like physical or cognitive therapy. Clearly, these things can be expensive, and a person may ultimately suffer tens of thousands of dollars or more in medical costs, lost wages, rehabilitation, etc. This amount does not account for the intangible value of pain and suffering and diminished quality of life.
