When you suffer certain injuries, your life may still go on in a manner that resembles “normal.” Serious traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are not one of those injuries. Healthy brain function is necessary for everything we do, from working to exercising, sleeping, and interacting meaningfully with loved ones. If you suffered a TBI, you have likely suffered both economic and non-economic damages that entitle you to justice.
There are several key steps in completing a traumatic brain injury case, from proving negligence to calculating damages. These steps can be complicated, time-consuming, and fraught with potential mistakes. Allow a Houston traumatic brain injury lawyer from AP Law Group – Personal Injury & Accident Attorneys to manage every aspect of your case, fighting aggressively for the compensation you deserve. Call AP Law Group – Personal Injury & Accident Attorneys today for your free consultation.
Some Common Causes of Traumatic Brain Injuries
Life is full of hazards, and hazards don’t discriminate when causing injury. Your brain can be injured in a wide range of circumstances, and some of the most common causes we see at AP Law Group – Personal Injury & Accident Attorneys are:
- Car accidents
- Truck accidents
- Pedestrian accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Workplace accidents
- Construction accidents
- Bicycle accidents
- Slip and fall accidents
- Animal attacks during which the victim falls and hits their head
If you or a loved one suffered a TBI in these circumstances, call our firm as soon as possible. In fact, if your injury happened in any circumstance where someone was negligent (which can mean careless or reckless), you should contact AP Law Group – Personal Injury & Accident Attorneys.
It’s not always obvious when a brain injury is the consequence of negligence. Attorney Arsha Pourghaffar has years of experience representing the injured, and our team will waste no time evaluating your case.
Severe, Persistent Symptoms Often Signal a Traumatic Brain Injury
The first step in getting justice for a brain injury is recognizing you’ve suffered a brain injury. Too often, victims of car accidents and other events that cause brain injuries might trivialize symptoms. Don’t assume you’re “just shaken up” or use any other excuses to dismiss a potentially severe TBI.
Get immediate medical attention if you’re experiencing any symptoms that may indicate you’ve suffered a TBI, which include:
- A persistent headache or series of headaches
- Fatigue
- Drowsiness
- Forgetfulness
- Balance problems
- Vision changes
- Sensitivity to sound, light, or both
- Depression
- Anxiety
If you suffered any event in which your brain may have suffered an injury, and you don’t feel right afterward, that’s enough reason to see a doctor. Let AP Law Group – Personal Injury & Accident Attorneys worry about getting fair compensation for not just your medical care but also any pain and suffering and other damages resulting from the brain injury.
Brain Injuries Can Be Fatal. AP Law Group - Personal Injury & Accident Attorneys Represents Those Grieving a Loved One’s Loss.
Bleeding in and around the brain is one of several TBI-related symptoms that can be fatal. Even if a brain injury is not immediately lethal, damage to the brain can cause a victim to deteriorate more rapidly than they otherwise would.
If you have lost a loved one to a fatal brain injury, you deserve a law firm that:
- Has handled many wrongful death cases
- Understands the immense, lasting emotional and psychological pain you’re enduring
- Will fight for you and your family as if you were part of their own family
- Is willing to take your wrongful death lawsuit to court if circumstances warrant
AP Law Group – Personal Injury & Accident Attorneys is compassionate with our clients. We are aggressive with those who have wronged our clients, as well as those who owe our clients compensation. Allow us to be your legal counselors and servants whether you’re dealing with a non-fatal TBI or you have tragically lost a loved one.
TBIs Often Result from Someone’s Negligence. AP Law Group - Personal Injury & Accident Attorneys Steps Up for the Victims.
Those who suffer brain injuries do not always realize it’s their right to receive fair compensation. Why should you pay the price when someone else is responsible for causing the injury?
Even if you are not 100 percent certain that someone else is financially liable for your TBI, it’s worth making the call to AP Law Group – Personal Injury & Accident Attorneys. We are generally able to seek compensation for clients with brain injuries when:
- Someone else had a duty of care to our client: There are countless circumstances in which someone has a duty of care to others. From a store owner protecting their customers from slipping hazards to a motor vehicle driver doing everything possible to prevent an accident, the duty of care is all around us.
- The at-fault party violated their duty of care to our client: When someone falls short of their duty to protect others from harm (simply by acting reasonably), that party is at fault for any resulting harm. Sometimes, that resulting harm is a traumatic brain injury.
- We can prove causation between the breach of duty of care and our client’s TBI: Attorney Pourghaffar relies on undeniable facts and evidence to prove this point. For instance, if we obtain video footage of a motorist rear-ending our client’s vehicle, we can prove the direct link between the at-fault driver’s negligence and our client’s injury.
- We can show that the client’s TBI has caused them harm (which TBIs always do): We use medical records, financial records, and other documentation to prove the cost of our clients’ TBIs (and, therefore, the cost of the at-fault party’s negligence).
When we can prove each of these points, we have proven negligence. Furthermore, we have proven that negligence resulted in our client suffering a brain injury and also that the brain injury has undoubtedly caused our client harm.
