A traumatic brain injury (TBI) can occur in many situations where the head is subjected to extreme force and can result in extreme, complex challenges both in the immediate near future as well as long term. TBI includes concussions and post-concussion syndrome as well as other more complex situations such as subdural hematoma or diffuse axonal injury, regardless of whether any surgical intervention was ever required.
Frequently, victims of TBI are met with skepticism by opposing parties and their insurance companies. These injured people will require skilled legal representation by someone who is familiar with the medical complexity of a TBI in order to appropriately navigate the legal process that addresses the issues of causation from such an accident.
