Meeting the Needs of Brain Injury Victims

Traumatic brain injuries, or TBI, can result from direct head trauma (an auto accident or construction site fall), oxygen deprivation (birth injury or near-drowning) or infection. Proving liability requires in-depth understanding of how the brain works and how brain damage is manifested. Some victims suffer obvious impairment — inability to control muscles or speech, loss of vision, or profound mental incapacity. For many, the impact is subtler — inability to concentrate, headaches and dizziness, short-term memory loss, mood swings and personality change.

Our lawyers work with neurologists to document the physical damage through diagnostic imaging and with neuropsychologists and occupational therapists to document the client’s limitations. We have found that “day in the life” videos are a powerful tool to illustrate to a jury or insurance company a client’s daily struggles and contrast them with what the person was like before the injury.

Access to Professionals and Experts Who Can Assist With Your Case

We also work with economists and life care planners to determine the victim’s ongoing needs — replacement of lost earnings, round-the-clock home health aides, home modifications, physical therapy and medications.

• We represented a client whose gall bladder was punctured by a surgeon. She developed sepsis (blood-borne infection) that led to brain damage. As a result, she lost her business, was prone to fall, needed help to use the bathroom and eventually suffered a stroke. She went from being an active, independent woman to someone who can’t do most things by herself, all because of a physician’s negligence.
