Brain Injuries
Each year in the United States an estimated 1.4 million people suffer from a traumatic brain injury (TBI) — a blow or jolt to the head — which can disrupt the function of the brain. The severity of a TBI can range from a mild concussion to the extremes of coma or even death. At least 5.3 million Americans currently live with disabilities resulting from TBI. The leading causes of these types of injuries are:
- Vehicle accidents and crashes
- Firearm use
- Slips and/or falls
Our firm represents clients, or loved ones of clients, located in Metropolitan Washington (including the Maryland suburbs and Northern Virginia) or Baltimore (including its surrounding counties), who have suffered brain injuries.
Injuries suffered as a result of TBI can be severe and life-altering. Our firm understands that the immediate goals after going through such trauma are to get medical bills paid and covered, make sure you or your loved one does not suffer financially through any lost wages, and make sure the appropriate insurance company will pay for future treatment relating to the injury, and to obtain money for pain and suffering and other human losses. Often, brain injury cases require a multi-disciplinary approach including experts such as neuropsychologists, neurologists, life care planners, vocational rehabilitation consultants, and economists to obtain fair value for an injured client. Our experienced attorneys have experience putting teams of experts together to address the needs of each case individually. They will discuss your situation and go over the options available to you, as well as work with insurance companies and other parties involved in your case to make sure all your needs are handled quickly and appropriately.
