According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 1.4 million people in the United States sustain a brain injury each year, and 50,000 of those cases end in death. It is estimated that brain injuries cause more than 5.3 million people to need long-term or lifelong help in order to carry out daily activities.
Our firm handles a wide range of brain injury cases arising from:
- Car and motorcycle accidents;
- Trucking accidents;
- Boating and ship accidents;
- Offshore-Maritime Injuries

We handle cases involving all brain injuries, including paralysis, concussions, skull fractures, brain damage, head trauma, and other forms of brain injury.
If you have been injured in an accident that involved a blow to your head, it is important to understand the delayed path that brain injuries may take. Unlike cuts or broken bones, head injuries may occur over time and symptoms may be delayed. In addition, brain injury symptoms may be mild at first and may worsen over time. Symptoms which may be caused by a brain injury include:
- Loss of consciousness
- Post-traumatic amnesia
- Encephalopathy
- Seizure
- Un-reactive pupils
A brain injury is a devastating and life-altering situation for the victim, as well as his or her family. Knowing how to calculate damages in brain injury cases is a complex question that often confuses the jury. We enlist the assistance of appropriate medical experts who can provide an educated estimate of potential health care costs associated with a client's brain injury.
Compensation for a brain injury can often be significant due to potential life-time medical care needs. We work with experts to insure our brain injured client's damages are sufficiently proved in the event a jury will be called on to decide damages. When negotiating with the defendant or an insurance company, we aggressively seek full and fair compensation for our client and are always willing to take a case to trial if we feel it is in our client's best interest.
