Traumatic Brain Injury
Suffered Head Trauma in an Accident?
One of the most devastating injuries that can occur during a sudden accident is traumatic brain injury (TBI). People who have suffered a TBI require immediate medical attention and often suffer long-term consequences.

Making Sure Clients Get Adequate Medical Care
Traumatic brain injury is the leading cause of death and disability for Americans under 45. Every year, approximately one million people see their doctors about blows to the head. Of that number, nearly 100,000 have prolonged problems that will affect their earning ability and quality of life.
If you have lost consciousness during a car accident or any other accident, you should see a doctor right away and discuss your case with an attorney as soon as possible.
You don't have to be traveling at a high rate of speed to receive a closed head injury. Nor do you have to hit your head on an object such as the steering wheel or windshield. Common symptoms of traumatic brain injury include the following:
- Memory loss
- Mood swings and other emotional and behavioral problems
- Impaired communication and perception
If you are noticing any of these symptoms, you should discuss them with your doctor as soon as possible to get the medical treatment you need and to help document the extent of your injuries.
Demonstrating the Compensation You Deserve
From a legal standpoint, the main challenge after you have suffered a traumatic brain injury is to forecast the long-term impact of the injury so you can seek fair financial compensation for the harm that has been done to you.
Our firm works with qualified, credible experts to evaluate clients and document their injuries. We do extensive research and investigations before even filing a claim so we can keep the insurance companies on their toes and pursue the damages our clients deserve.
If you believe you may have suffered a mild, moderate or severe traumatic brain injury, contact us at Stevens Love for a case evaluation.
