Reseda Traumatic Brain Injury Attorneys

If you or a loved one suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI) during a personal injury incident, you already understand the effect these injuries can have. Living with a brain injury is never easy. A TBI can be straining on a person's physical, psychological, and financial health. A TBI can also make it difficult to work, resume your daily activities, and enjoy a long and active life.

After a brain injury, your future can depend on the treatment you receive and your ability to pay for the care that you need. That's why you should consult with a lawyer about getting the compensation you are entitled to. The medical bills and lost income, in addition to the pain and suffering, are not something you should have to deal with alone.

Get In Touch With a Reseda traumatic brain injury attorney at Drake Law Firm if you are suffering from a head injury because of an automobile accident or any other accident.

¿Qué es una lesión cerebral traumática?

La definición de lesión cerebral traumática es "una alteración del funcionamiento normal del cerebro que puede ser causada por un golpe, una sacudida o una lesión penetrante en la cabeza". Estas lesiones incluyen:

  • Daños en la integridad estructural del cráneo
  • Daños en el tejido cerebral por movimientos violentos
  • Lesiones en las que se penetra el tejido cerebral

Las LCT van de leves a graves, con síntomas y pronósticos variables.

Minor traumatic brain injuries typically impact a person for a short time period before they make a complete recovery. More severe traumatic brain injuries can cause bruising, torn tissue, bleeding, and various other physical damage that results in long-term problems or death.

¿Qué tipo de demandas por lesiones cerebrales maneja el bufete Drake?

Our brain injury attorneys take on all types of cases involving brain injuries that were caused by another party's negligence. A few of the most common types of TBI cases we handle include:

Accidentes de coche, camión y moto

Motor vehicle accidents are one of the most common causes of brain injuries in the United States. Car accidents are common and many result in head injuries. Truck accidents are less common, yet they involve devastating force that leads to an increased possibility of a TBI. And motorcycle riders simply have little to no protection and can easily injure their head when they are struck or ejected from their bike.

Accidentes de peatones y ciclistas

Pedestrians and bicyclists are completely exposed when they are walking or biking near roadways. If a vehicle hits a pedestrian, they are typically thrown or crushed from the force of the vehicle. This collision commonly results in brain injuries in serious pedestrian or bicycle accidents.

Negligencia médica

Medical malpractice occurs when a physician, hospital, or other healthcare provider deviates from the standard of care, causing an injury to the patient. If the mistake causes a lack of oxygen to the brain, or fails to notice or treat an existing brain issue, a TBI might result.

Lesión de nacimiento

Infant brain damage can happen during childbirth in certain situations that are naturally caused and also in circumstances involving negligence. The most common causes of birth injury TBIs are the use of an instrument like forceps with too much force or asphyxiation when the brain is deprived of oxygen for too long.

Resbalones y caídas

When an individual slips and falls from a slippery floor or damaged staircase, they can easily hit their heads hard enough to result in a brain injury. Some falls are not serious and result in minor injuries. But some can be devastating and lead to long lasting consequences and real pain and suffering.

Accidentes de trabajo

Some workplaces and industries are known to be more dangerous than others. For example, a worker in the construction industry may suffer a brain injury at work from falling, being crushed, or during a car accident. In these situations, they might be able to recover compensation through workers' compensation benefits. If a party besides the employer was responsible, they may be able to get additional compensation through a third-party personal injury claim.

Indemnización por daños y perjuicios de una lesión cerebral

Getting compensation for a brain injury that was not your fault can make all the difference for you and your loved ones. In most cases, victims and their families are dealing with accumulating bills, stress, and an unclear future. If your traumatic brain injury is severe, you might be out of work for some time. In addition to medical bills, you might be able to receive other compensation because of the accident.

Insurance companies will pay the least amount possible because they are in business to make money. They do not care about your injuries; they just care about their profits. If you attempt to settle, you may not receive sufficient compensation for past medical bills, never mind future medical expenses and lost time from work.

The various types of compensation that you can receive consist of:

  • Las facturas médicas anteriores por las lesiones que sufrió en el accidente.
  • Future medical expenses for upcoming surgeries and doctors' visits.
  • Terapias físicas, cognitivas y psicológicas. Este tipo de terapias pueden prolongarse durante meses o años.
  • Past lost wages for time you could not work due to your injuries.
  • Pérdidas de salario futuras por el tiempo que no puedas trabajar en el futuro o si tienes que aceptar un puesto de trabajo que pague menos.
  • Reparación o sustitución de automóviles.
  • Reposición de los bienes personales dañados en el accidente.
  • Pérdida de compañía si el siniestro le causó lesiones lo suficientemente graves como para no poder disfrutar haciendo cosas con sus seres queridos.
  • Loss of consortium if the accident caused injuries serious enough that you can not enjoy a physical relationship with your partner.
  • The cost if you have to hire someone for daily tasks, such as grocery shopping, home maintenance, and cleaning.
  • Dolor y sufrimiento si los médicos esperan que sufra sus lesiones a largo plazo.
  • Daños punitivos si las acciones gravemente negligentes del conductor culpable causaron el accidente.

Traumatic brain injuries may be minor or severe and could have lengthy recovery times. Compensation for long-term injuries will help you support yourself and your family.
