Toronto Personal Injury Lawer Blog - Findlay Law

Victims who suffer a traumatic brain injury (TBI) can experience a wide range of effects, from severe paralysis to less obvious symptoms such as headaches or mood swings. While auto accidents, slips and falls and blows to the head are common reasons for TBI, there is no common way that TBI will affect different people. In fact, often there is no outward indication that a TBI has even occurred.

When the effects of mild TBI begin to surface, victims may begin to experience symptoms that interfere with their jobs, relationships and everyday life, such as:

• Concentration difficulties
• Extreme tiredness
• Seizures
• Disruption of sleep patterns
• Loss of memory
• Depression

What to look for in a good personal injury lawyer
Not all attorneys are the same. When you meet with a personal injury attorney, one who specializes in TBI cases, make sure the attorney:

• Carefully listens to your situation
• Asks detailed questions about the event
• Suggests a course of action or several different options
• Offers information about his/her credentials, background and success rate
• Has trial experience
• Treats you with respect

The brain injury lawyers at Findlay Law Offices have extensive experience helping TBI victims receive the compensation and treatment to regain a good quality of life.
