What Can I Recover in a Traumatic Brain Injury Claim?

TBI settlements must account not only for the losses and measurable expenses a patient faces right after an accident, but also for those that will persist into the future. Even mild TBIs, often referenced as “mere” concussions, can continue to affect a patient’s mental and emotional functioning for a lifetime. Moderate and severe TBIs are all but guaranteed to have an irreversible effect on persons who suffer these injuries.

We can direct the medical assessment process and often assist clients in getting badly needed cognitive therapy and retraining to help with future functioning.

We can help you recover compensation for your current losses as well as for the lasting effects and expenses associated with a TBI, including:

  • Medical bills
  • Future medical expenses
  • Medication/pharmaceuticals
  • Cognitive Rehabilitation/therapy
  • Lost wages
  • Decreased earning capacity
  • Neuropsychological Testing
  • Home renovations and accommodations
  • Assistive and mobility devices
  • Personal or household aid
  • Pain and suffering
  • Mental anguish

Our attorneys will get to know you so we can determine the full impact of such an injury on your day-to-day life. This is just one of the ways getting to know our clients on a personal level helps us provide stellar service and build for them a strong case.

Why Traumatic Brain Injury Claims Are So Complex

After a TBI, it’s no exaggeration to say your entire life is likely to change. An injury attorney’s job is to help you recover compensation for all the damages, both concrete and intangible, caused by an accident. Determining the long-ranging effects of a TBI is incredibly difficult. However, being able to justify and support each item you request compensation for is a must, as the insurance company is nearly assured to push back against your claims. These injuries seldom appear clearly on medical studies like MRI and CT scans. Nonetheless, the ramifications of “unseen” injuries can be devastating. Our attorneys understand the science of TBIs and have a robust network of medical professionals who can offer critical testimony and other support to your case.

Understanding the Costs of TBI Treatment

There is, unfortunately, no cure for a traumatic brain injury: Brain cells, once dead, cannot be replaced. For some patients, extensive therapy can result in the brain rewiring itself to help them regain lost skills. For others, virtually little improvement will be made. It’s impossible to tell whether you or a loved one will recover without having the highest caliper medical professionals on board.

Every patient deserves to access full treatment. However, when constructing a settlement demand, we must also consider what your needs may look like if proper treatment cannot allow for an adequate recovery. Some patients need continuing care to help with comorbidities and complications of brain injury, which can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars over the course of a lifetime. We want to ensure you have adequate future financial support to access the help you need.

Varying Symptoms Make Outcomes Difficult to Predict

Because it is the control center for your entire body, injury to the brain can cause any number of symptoms. Your ability to move, speak, recall facts, process sensory input and information, participate in social situations, and more areas may be profoundly affected.

The only way to determine the effect of a TBI on a patient is through diagnostic observation and neuropsychological testing. Certain symptoms may not be noticeable right away, which means rushing to a settlement may result in you missing out on vital compensation. Our attorneys take time to thoroughly investigate and understand your condition, so we can ask for all the compensation we believe you are entitled to receive.
