Brain injuries can have life-altering consequences, affecting cognitive function, mobility, and emotional well-being. If you or a loved one has suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI) due to negligence, understanding your legal rights is essential in seeking compensation and ongoing medical support.
Traumatic brain injuries result from a sudden impact or force to the head, disrupting normal brain function. These injuries range from mild concussions to severe, life-threatening damage. TBIs often lead to prolonged medical care, rehabilitation, and long-term disability. Depending on the severity, TBIs may require extensive therapy, cognitive retraining, and assisted living care.
Depending on the severity, TBIs can cause a wide range of complications, including:
Victims of brain injuries may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, rehabilitation costs, and pain and suffering. Filing a lawsuit against the responsible party can help cover long-term financial burdens associated with a TBI. An experienced brain injury attorney will gather medical records, consult experts, and build a strong case to prove negligence and secure the highest possible settlement.

In California, personal injury claims, including TBIs, must typically be filed within two years from the date of injury. If the injury was discovered later, you may have one year from the date of discovery to file a claim. It is important to act quickly to preserve evidence and strengthen your case.
Compensation varies depending on the severity of the injury, medical costs, lost income, and future care needs. Some cases result in multi-million dollar settlements for lifetime care expenses. Factors like lost earning potential, ongoing therapy, and quality of life adjustments also contribute to the final compensation amount.
Yes, family members can file a claim on behalf of an injured loved one, especially if they are unable to represent themselves due to cognitive impairment. Appointing a legal guardian can help ensure the victim receives the compensation and care they deserve.
The length of a brain injury lawsuit depends on the complexity of the case, the willingness of the opposing party to settle, and court schedules. Some cases resolve within months, while others may take years. An experienced attorney can help expedite the process while ensuring maximum compensation.
If you suffered a TBI at work, you may be eligible for workers’ compensation benefits. However, if a third party, such as an equipment manufacturer or negligent contractor, contributed to the injury, you may also have a personal injury claim.
