What Our Clients Are Saying

Causes of Traumatic Brain Injuries

Understanding the causes of a traumatic brain injury is important for both you and your brain injury lawyer. Given that brain injuries can occur because of violent or forceful hits to the head, there are unfortunately a number of potential causes — resulting in thousands of hospitalizations every year. Some of the most common brain injury causes include:

Motor vehicle accidents are an incredibly common cause of brain damage because of how violent crashes can be. Motorcyclists and cyclists who don’t wear helmets have nothing to protect their heads and, as such, have a higher chance of experiencing a traumatic brain injury during an accident.

Despite how simple and accidental falls may be, they are nevertheless one of the most common sources of brain injuries. The severity of the brain damage can range from mild to severe depending on how serious the fall was, with falls from ladders and high places being particularly dangerous. In addition, it is worth noting that most traumatic injuries caused by falls are experienced by young children and older adults.

Sports, especially extreme contact sports like football, skateboarding, rugby, hockey, and lacrosse, are all common causes of traumatic brain injuries.

Individuals who experience domestic violence can also suffer from traumatic brain injuries if they are violently struck in the head. While all instances of brain injuries and domestic violence are incredibly serious, cases involving children are particularly dangerous, given that they can impair the development of their brains.

Symptoms of Traumatic Brain Injuries

Common symptoms of a brain injury can include:

  • Dizziness
  • Vision Problems
  • Abnormal Sleeping
  • Extreme Sensitivity to Light or Sound
  • Impaired Concentration
  • Memory Problems
  • Slurred Speech
  • Seizures

How An Attorney Can Help With Your Brain Injury Claim

A traumatic brain injury case can be incredibly difficult to tackle alone and without legal experience. As a result, it’s in your best interests to partner with a skilled brain injury lawyer — their knowledge of the legal system and experience working on past traumatic brain injury cases will make navigating the complexities of the process much easier.

For example, a traumatic brain injury attorney will be familiar with what evidence is needed to succeed in court and will know how to investigate and obtain such evidence. This can include gathering important health records, consulting with medical professionals like doctors and neurologists, and proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that your brain injury has had a profound negative influence on your life.

In addition, a brain injury lawyer can handle all negotiations with insurance companies —  whether they be yours or the defendants. Given how stressful a brain injury can be, having a legal expert on your side to take care of essential communications with insurance providers and relevant parties will be incredibly beneficial.
