BRONX BRAIN INJURY ATTORNEY

The National Institute of Health describes traumatic brain injuries as an injury caused by a forceful bump, blow, or jolt to the head or body or from an object that pierces the skull and enters the brain. However, not all blows or jolts to the head result in a TBI. Some types of TBI can cause temporary or short-term problems with normal brain function, including problems with how the person thinks, understands, moves, communicates, and acts. More serious TBI can lead to severe and permanent disability and even death.

Even if your brain injury is a mild concussion, you can still face life-altering consequences. Regardless of the severity of your brain injury, it’s always a good idea to talk to an experienced personal injury attorney about your legal options.

If your brain injury is caused by someone’s negligence, you may be entitled to receive compensation. However, before you can file an injury claim, you’ll need to prove negligence. 

This can be a complex process. You’ll need to prove the defendant knowingly breached their duty of care. This is when Morgan & Morgan may be able to help with your case by taking care of the following.

• Investigating the accident. Your attorney will carefully investigate the accident that caused your TBI to determine who is responsible. They will also gather evidence to support your claim, such as police reports, medical records, and witness statements.
• Negotiating with insurers. Your attorney will negotiate with the insurance company of the at-fault party to try to reach an agreeable settlement. They will be able to use their experience and knowledge to get you the best possible settlement offer.
• Filing a lawsuit. If you are unable to settle with the insurance company, your attorney can file a lawsuit on your behalf. They will represent you in court and fight for the compensation you deserve.

If you have sustained a TBI due to someone else's negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and other losses. A TBI attorney can help you get the compensation you deserve so that you can focus on your recovery.
