Brain injuries occur everyday, and are caused by various accidents, including but not limited to car accidents, the actions of another person, and/or defective equipment. Between 50,000 and 100,000 people will suffer ongoing problems that can adversely affect their ability to work and/or participate in their daily lives. A brain injury can even cause a wrongful death.
Brain injury can result from a bruise to the brain, or from bleeding, swelling, or tearing of blood vessels. Often people who have been injured in a car accident will think they are “just fine” right after the accident, but shortly, they begin to get more and more confused and disoriented and sometimes even lapse into a coma. If you have suffered from brain damage due to a car accident injury, it is imperative that you are working with an attorney who understands the problems and long term ramifications of this type of injury.
All types of brain trauma can have serious and long term effects on your life.
