Elements of a Brain Injury Lawsuit
If a brain injury was the result of the negligence or recklessness of another, the victim may be able to sue for damages. In a brain injury lawsuit, the attorney for the victim must prove the following:
Duty of Care: Duty of care is a legal obligation requiring a person to act toward others with reasonable watchfulness and prudence. For instance, drivers have a duty of care to other people on the road to obey the rules of the highway and drive alertly and safely.
Breach of Duty: A breach of duty occurs when a person has an obligation to act with due care but fails to adhere to this standard. For example, if a driver is speeding, changing lanes without signaling, or driving under the influence, they are violating their duty of care.
Causation: The responsible party’s breach of duty must be the direct cause of the injury.
Damages: The victim must have suffered an injury to have a valid claim.
Attorneys and Medical Experts
A victim will need an attorney with a strong understanding of the medical issues associated with brain injuries to successfully communicate the gravity of the harm to a jury or settling insurance company. For this reason, victims of brain injuries should retain an attorney who understands the complex issues involved in brain injury litigation.
To help ensure our clients are properly compensated, our Tampa brain injury attorneys at Morgan & Morgan regularly consult medical specialists such as doctors, physical therapists, and other healthcare experts. We examine factors including necessary future procedures, rehabilitation costs, and lost earning capacity in determining the value of our clients’ claims. Our brain injury attorneys are dedicated to recovering compensation to help our clients and their families recover financially after suffering a debilitating brain injury.
Compensation in a Brain Injury Lawsuit
By filing a brain injury lawsuit, a victim may be able to receive compensation for the following types of damages:
- Past and future medical bills
