Answer:

Last week, I received a phone call from a potential client, and we were discussing what a traumatic brain injury is here in Orlando. A traumatic brain injury is an injury that affects someone’s brain – their memory, their cognitive abilities – and that has occurred as the result of a one-time accident, whether that be a car accident, a work-related accident, or some blow to their head that has resulted in permanent impairment.

These cases are very, very serious. Many times, you can look at an individual and by looking at them have no idea that they’ve sustained this very, very serious injury. It’s only through spending time with them, talking with them, seeing how they interact with their family and how those things have changes that you can identify the true extent of this traumatic brain injury. It not only affects them cognitively, their speech patterns, but also their mood, their emotions.

It is extremely important to hire a knowledgeable, experienced attorney that has dealt with traumatic brain injuries so that the TBI cannot only be identified, but then that attorney can obtain fair and just compensation for the victim. If you or a loved one has sustained a traumatic brain injury, please contact us. We’d be happy to help you.
