What is a Traumatic Brain Injury?
A traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs when trauma to the head causes the brain to swell up and press against the sides of the skull, resulting in brain dysfunction. If a person experiences a physiological disruption of brain function after an open or closed head injury, they have a traumatic brain injury.
Brain injury can be classified as mild, moderate, or severe, and is most often caused by:
- Motor vehicle accidents
- Slip-and-fall accidents
- Sports and recreational accidents
Brain injury cases are complex by nature. It is important to have proper tests performed by medical experts to determine the nature and extent of your TBI. If necessary, we will hire expert witnesses to strengthen your case, including (but not limited to) a board-certified neurologist, a psychological trauma expert, and/or a forensic psychiatrist. These specialists will explain not only how your injury affects you now, but how it will impact you for the rest of your life.
Symptoms of Brain Injury
Symptoms of TBI can vary dramatically depending on the area of your brain that was injured, and the severity of the injury. Physical symptoms of brain injury can range from coma and paralysis to seizures, headaches, and extreme fatigue.
Other common symptoms include:
- Memory loss
- Difficulty concentrating
- Language impairment
- Mood swings
- Motor function disorders
- Difficulty processing and understanding information
- Loss of balance
- Loss of sense of time
