Serious Injury
Traumatic Brain Injury
Representation for concussions and traumatic brain injuries affecting memory, balance, vision, cognition, and daily function.
A traumatic brain injury may not be visible, yet it can affect memory, concentration, balance, vision, mood, sleep, work, and relationships. A careful claim must document both the medical findings and the real-world changes experienced by the injured person.
Personal injury representation is available in Puerto Rico. California matters are evaluated case by case; federal-court participation is through pro hac vice admission with local counsel where required. Laws, deadlines, insurance requirements, and available compensation vary by jurisdiction and facts.
Symptoms May Be Complex
Brain injuries can present differently from person to person.
- Headaches or dizziness
- Memory or concentration problems
- Balance or coordination changes
- Visual symptoms
- Sleep or mood changes
- Other cognitive or neurological symptoms
Specialized Evaluation
Depending on the symptoms, qualified providers may use neurological examinations, imaging, EEG, vestibular testing, neuropsychological assessment, or other appropriate tools. The firm does not diagnose conditions or direct treatment; medical decisions belong to the client and their healthcare providers.
Documenting Daily Consequences
Medical records are important, but they may not capture every functional loss. Work performance, household activity, communication, independence, and the observations of family members can help explain how the injury changed daily life.
Presenting the Claim
We analyze the incident evidence, medical history, qualified opinions, financial losses, and functional limitations. Prior conditions and later events must be disclosed so causation can be evaluated accurately.
