Traumatic Brain & Head Injuries
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) occur when sudden trauma causes damage to the brain. Symptoms of TBI can be mild, moderate or severe depending on the extent of the damage to the brain. Symptoms of TBI may include loss of consciousness, headaches, fatigue, change in sleep patterns, behavioral changes, or trouble with memory. Brain injuries can have both severe short term and long-term effects on individuals and their families, and the recovery process can be both long and difficult.
Auto accidents are the leading cause of TBI in adolescents and young adults, while among the elderly falls are a leading cause of TBI. Because rehabilitation and recovery from a TBI is a long and difficult process, it is important that you and your loved ones have a team in place to insure the proper course for treatment. Treatment programs for TBI may include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and psychology, and at Findlay Law we will help you receive specialized rehabilitation treatment that involves the skills and knowledge of many specialists.
The financial hardships resulting in loss of income and increased medical costs can make recovery from TBI extremely difficult. Many times individuals with TBI are unable to return to work even a full year after the accident. At Findlay Law we have a team of head injury lawyers fighting to help you obtain compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, damages, and pain and suffering.
