Alameda County Brain Injury Attorneys
Brain injuries can be the most damaging and lasting injuries, but also the most difficult to identify and diagnose. It is important in these cases to understand your legal rights and how to recover from the accident financially. It is also essential in brain injury lawsuits to thoroughly understand your medical condition and damages in order to know what your case is worth and how you can be made whole.
The Bay Area catastrophic injury attorneys at BV Law are here to help you.
Brain Injury Accidents
Brain injury accidents happen in many ways, including:
- Catastrophic injury
- Cross walk accidents
- Bicycle accidents
- Slip and falls
- Construction
- Motorcycle accidents
- Pedestrian injuries
- Carbon monoxide poisoning
Any time you have been involved in an accident and have suffered symptoms such as memory loss, headaches, blurred vision, loss of motor skills, coordination, command of speech or enunciation, you should consult a qualified neurologist or other medical professional for an MRI or other cognitive testing. It is an unfortunate reality that many serious brain and central nervous system injuries go undiagnosed.
Making Brain Injuries Visible
Brain injuries are of course not apparent without a CT scan or MRI, but brain injuries will change behavior and cognition, so it is important to know what to look for. A good personal injury lawyer will make the plaintiff's brain injury apparent and visible to the jury-including all of the consequences of the injury to the plaintiff's overall life.
The right attorney will hire and consult with the right expert medical doctors to thoroughly examine you and assess the severity of your injuries. Often, expensive cognitive, performance, or laboratory testing must be done. You will need an attorney to guide you through this process to ensure that you are fully compensated for your injury.
Never settle or proceed to trial without knowing the full extent of your injuries.
The right attorney will seek all applicable categories of damages on your behalf, such as lost wages, loss of future earning capacity, loss of consortium, medical bills, future medical treatment and life planning, pain and suffering, and so on.
