Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Lawyer Lancaster
Pennsylvania Attorneys Representing Victims of TBI
Traumatic brain injury results from an unexpected force to the head. Whether your head was hit by an object or you were shaken hard enough for your brain to strike your skull, consequences can be dire, changing your life forever.
Sometimes traumatic brain injury (TBI) is immediately apparent after an accident. Frequently, individuals are initially in a coma or unconscious and unresponsive after suffering head trauma. In other situations, brain damage is more subtle and not always immediately detectable. Unlike other catastrophic injuries, closed head injuries can be a hidden impairment.
If you or a family member sustained a traumatic brain injury in a car, truck or motorcycle accident, or received a blow to the head during a construction site accident, it is very important to obtain thorough neurological testing and to contact a lawyer as soon as possible to seek compensation.
Family and friends are the often first to notice signs of a potential traumatic brain injury. Victims may develop any of the following symptoms:
- Speech impairment and communication difficulties
- Trouble with perception and concentration
- Short-term memory loss
- Mood changes and depression
- A serious brain injury can even result in death.
The economic and social impact of traumatic brain injury can be life-altering. TBI can have a devastating effect on victims and their families. Victims may no longer be able to function as well as they once could, leaving them unable to perform necessary tasks for themselves. Often people with traumatic brain injury are unable to return to their former jobs. Some are unable to work at all. Treatment and rehabilitation may require numerous specialists, therapists and medication regimens. The costs add up quickly.
