Our Traumatic Brain Injury Practice

A traumatic brain injury (TBI), which can occur when your brain collides with your skull, can have serious consequences. The impact often leads to microscopic tears that sever connections in the brain, as well as bleeding and swelling that increase pressure on brain tissue and can result in brain damage or even death.

At Blackman Legal Group, we have special experience in protecting the rights of individuals and their families in cases involving TBI. Among the awards we have obtained in traumatic brain injury cases are:

• $2.75 million to client who developed seizure disorder after traumatic brain-injury caused by collision with commercial truck
• $1.25 million for baby born with brain damage caused by medical malpractice
• $630,000 for cab driver who suffered brain injury from car accident with drunk driver

Though traumatic brain injury may be caused by many different types of negligence, many of the cases our traumatic brain injury attorneys handle result from motor vehicle accidents. If you have been in any type of car, truck or motorcycle incident, even if there wasn’t a collision, you may have a claim for damages. Even if there was no direct blow to your head, if there was a high speed collision you may have experienced trauma that could cause TBI. A person that has had a traumatic brain injury may develop memory loss, problems sleeping, personality or mood changes, headaches or impaired intellectual function.

Family members are often in the best position to identify the symptoms of traumatic brain injury. If your loved one suffered a blow or other trauma to the head because of the carelessness of another person, contact our office immediately. We can help you get the medical care your loved one needs and work with your doctor to determine whether you have a claim for damages.
