A head injury lawyer is needed when the result of vehicle crashes, falls, and sports injuries affects the cranial area.  Every 15 seconds someone suffers a brain injury.

Depending on the location of the brain injury or brain trauma area, different types of brain injuries are possible:

  • Diffuse Axonal Injury – Caused by a strong rotation or shaking of the head.
  • Concussion – Occurs with a blow to the head, and may cause the blood vessels to stretch and nerves to be damaged.
  • Contusion – Bruise to the brain, received from a direct impact to the head.
  • Coup-Contrecoup Injury – Contusion sustained on one side of the brain, and on the direct opposite side.
  • Recurrent Traumatic Brain Injury – A brain injury sustained while another one hasn’t done healing.
  • Penetration Injury – Causes outside objects like hair and skin to enter the brain.
  • Locked in Syndrome – Rare condition that only allows your eyes to move.

When the brain injury has not resulted in a visible trauma on the external of the brain injury patient's head, the brain injury is often left untreated because the individual underestimates the impact of the injury. It can be difficult to have an accurate diagnosis of a brain injury when the head does not display a visible wound. All potential brain injury individuals should seek proper medical evaluation from a doctor trained to recognize brain injury signs and symptoms. The brain injury symptoms are generally greatest immediately after the brain injury has been experienced. A brain injury will not always heal, affecting cognitive functioning and other basic functions. The sooner the brain injury is diagnosed, the sooner treatment can help the brain injury patient heal and recover any lost functioning.

Brain injury patients that have experienced permanent brain injury symptoms can sometimes learn to compensate for the lost functioning with the proper brain injury treatment. This brain injury treatment can be costly and emotionally upsetting, in addition the brain injury may have limited the brain injury victim's previous work and social activities. A qualified personal injury attorney will evaluate your potential brain injury lawyer case.
