Most Common

A brain injury or a head injury can be sustained in almost any type of accident with motor vehicle accidents being the most common. Debilitating brain injuries can occur in both children as well as adults. Work-related accidents such as falls, crushing injuries and large commercial vehicle accidents. These types of accidents can cause minimal, moderate and severe head and brain injuries

• Auto Accidents: the head can be slammed into a window, dashboard, and steering wheel with an extraordinary amount of force upon impact.
• Motorcycle Accidents: particularly when someone is not wearing a helmet, can also induce severe brain injuries.

Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) range from mild to severe, each requiring specific medical and legal attention. A severe TBI is a medical emergency often resulting from a violent impact or penetrating skull injury, potentially leading to long-term coma or fatality.

Conversely, a Concussion (mTBI) is the most frequent form of brain trauma, representing approximately 75% of all cases. These injuries typically occur when a blunt-force blow or sudden jolt causes the brain to strike the inside of the skull.

While often labeled “mild,” mTBI symptoms can be delayed and may lead to significant long-term disability. It is crucial to monitor these injuries closely, as repeated concussions or “second-impact syndrome” can be life-threatening if the brain hasn’t fully healed.

Getting high-quality, advanced medical imaging is critical following a head trauma because traditional scans often fail to capture the microscopic damage associated with mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI). Quality imaging serves as the bridge between “invisible” symptoms and objective medical proof.

Proving the impact of an “invisible” injury requires aggressive legal representation and medical insight.

The cause of a brain injury (when, how, where it occurred), dictates who is responsible or accountable for the injury. Sometimes an insurance company is responsible–as in an auto accident–other times third party or corporate entities such as hospitals or health care organizations are liable.
