When an injury results in serious damage, it’s important to do what you can to hold the liable parties responsible for the harm they caused.

About Brain Injuries

Brain injuries can occur whenever the head sustains a serious impact, causing the brain to collide with the skull or strain away from the brain stem. Puncture wounds to the head can also affect the brain, either because of a bullet, a weapon, or debris. For example, a car crash victim might be hit with fallen debris that pierces the skull—resulting in brain damage. Although our skulls are rather tough, the brain within is extremely delicate and complex, which is why even a seemingly minor head injury can become serious fast.

Although brain injuries can occur anywhere, some of the most common causes include:

  • Car accidents
  • Construction accidents
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Physical assault
  • Slip and falls
  • Sports-related injuries
  • Truck accidents
  • Work-related accidents

Traumatic Brain Injuries & Potential Damage

As with any other type of injury, brain injuries can vary in type and severity. A mild brain injury might result in temporary memory loss, whereas a severe brain injury could leave the injured person in a permanent vegetative state. Because the damage of these injuries can vary so drastically, there is no singular result of a brain injury, nor is there a cut-and-dry value for a brain injury case.

Brain injuries can result in any of the following damages:

  • Anxiety
  • Chronic headaches
  • Cognitive impairment
  • Coma
  • Depression
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Insomnia
  • Language or communication problems
  • Loss of hearing
  • Loss of impulse control
  • Loss of vision
  • Mood swings
  • Paralysis
  • Personality changes
  • Temporary or permanent memory loss
  • Tinnitus

How Much is My Brain Injury Claim Worth?

Depending on the severity of the injury, the value of a personal injury claim can vary. If the injury causes relatively minor injuries, (injuries that do not result in lasting damage), the value of the claim will be significantly lower than a claim for an injury that causes permanent damage. However, because brain injuries are typically so serious, most damages will be lasting and permanent, or “catastrophic.”

catastrophic injury is extremely damaging and will often result in significant emotional and financial hardship. If someone sustains a catastrophic brain injury, he or she will likely require compensation for medical bills, future medical expenses, rehabilitative care, loss of wages, and pain and suffering.
