Our Head Injury Practice

We handle many types of head injury claims, from seemingly minor concussions to disabling and life-altering traumatic brain injury (TBI). Many different types of injury can occur when your brain collides with your skull. Nerve endings can be severed, and bleeding or swelling can put significant pressure on delicate brain tissue. You can suffer damage to many different areas of the brain, including the frontal lobe, the parietal lobe, the occipital lobe or the temporal lobe.

Many head injuries can be difficult to detect as there is no fracture of the skull and no unusual short-term medical changes. Head injuries cannot be detected on x-ray and frequently cannot be seen on MRI scan either. Many times, we are contacted by family members who notice changes in behavior of a loved one who has been in a serious accident.

In our decades of representing personal injury victims, we employ a vast network of professionals to help us gather, evaluate, synthesize and present evidence, so that we can present your case in a way that maximizes your chances of recovery. We work with accident reconstruction experts, bio-mechanical experts, neurosurgeons and other medical experts, life planners, rehabilitation specialists, physical therapists and financial experts, making certain that we accurately identify and portray the nature and extent of your injuries and what you need to move forward with your life.
