Dallas Brain Injury Attorney

Recovering After A Traumatic Brain Injury

In the blink of an eye, your life can change. A car accident, explosion at work, or a medical mistake can result in a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and alter your future and your family's future forever. Even mild head and brain injuries can temporarily affect your day-to-day functioning and prevent you from participating in everyday activities. Injury victims often must take time off work and face unexpected medical bills. If the injury is catastrophic, the victim may have life-long debilitations and require long-term care at home or in a medical facility. Sadly, some victims of head or brain injuries do not fully recover and may even die due to their injuries.

Valley Ranch Attorney for Head and Brain Injuries

A common cause of head and brain injuries is a sudden blow to the head. This can happen due to a motor vehicle crash, workplace accident, slip and fall accident, explosion, or other event when there is a blow, bump, or jolt to the head. Long-term brain injuries can also result from a prolonged lack of oxygen, including drowning, carbon monoxide exposure, choking, suffocation, or during surgery or other medical procedure. Severe brain injuries can also be caused by a penetrating injury, such as a bullet, shrapnel, or being hit by a weapon or other sharpened object.

Outside of the initial injury caused by the accident, there can be various long-term effects. Brain damage can present itself in many ways. Changes in personality, memory loss, and day-to-day forgetfulness may only be the beginning. After any accident or incident of violence involving head trauma, you need to look for changes in yourself or the other victim. See a physician immediately if you're suffering from physical or cognitive difficulties or if you notice behavioral changes. Round-the-clock care may need to be provided by a nurse or a family member willing to give up their career. Modifications to the house may be required if the victim suffered a spinal cord injury and is now wheelchair bound.
