Settlement: $6.2 million Our client in this case was a 78-year-old male driver involved in a car accident. His car was broadsided by a truck at an intersection, causing traumatic brain injury and permanent brain damage. A personal injury attorney from our firm negotiated a structured settlement to ensure he would receive the care he needed until the end of his life and to compensate his family for their loss. |
Closed head injuries (such as concussions) which injure the brain when it strikes the inside of the skull, possibly leading to bleeding in the brain, swelling of the brain, or tearing of brain tissue. This can happen in high speed car accidents.
Traumatic brain injury, such as skull fractures, can cause loss of cognitive functioning, loss of memory, loss of emotional control, and a change in personality.
With any type of damage to the brain, the injured person may or may not be aware of the full extent of their losses. It is often close family members who see the difference in behavior and become concerned.
You may be eligible to receive financial compensation for lost wages, medical bills, future lost wages, and pain and suffering. Our attorneys work with economists to document the extent of your current and future financial losses, and with medical and rehabilitation experts to understand how your current level of brain functioning will impact your future earning potential.
