A traumatic brain injury (TBI) involves a disruption of normal brain functions, and it is not an easy condition to contend with. Car accidents are the primary cause of brain injuries, as they can occur from a blow to the head or as a result of whiplash. TBIs can also occur without any loss of consciousness and even without any direct blows to the head. Therefore, ensuring you are legally protected can influence whether you are appropriately compensated for an accident causing such suffering.

What Causes a Traumatic Brain Injury?

A TBI is a direct result of blunt trauma to the head or body resulting in the brain tissue becoming bruised, bleeding, twisted, or torn. These injuries are often extreme and can cause significant harm, and in many cases, the results are permanent or impossible to fully recover from. Therefore, traumatic brain injuries should be taken extremely seriously, both by victims as well as those who inadvertently cause them.

Documenting Your Side of the Story

Due to the severe nature of many brain injuries, families and friends often need to step in and act as the voice for the victim. Symptoms can range from an inability to speak, write, read, see or even process thoughts properly, among others, meaning it is critical that your side of the story is well-supported and documented. This is when reaching out to a personal injury lawyer specializing in traumatic brain injuries can safeguard your best interests. It can be a long road to recovery if at all, representing everything from employment loss to families needing to assist with ensuring victims receive the rehabilitation they need.
