Why Should You Hire a Brain Injury Lawyer?

The main reason to hire a brain injury lawyer is that it’s the best way to get justice and make sure you are compensated for your injury.

Suffering a brain injury can dramatically alter your life. In some cases, the injury will be temporary, and you might be left dealing with pain and other symptoms for a few days or weeks. But symptoms from the most severe traumatic brain injuries can last for months or years, with some even leaving victims battling symptoms for the rest of their lives. In extreme cases, a personal injury involving the brain can even prove fatal.

It can be crucial to get legal help in cases involving personal injury and wrongful death. The legal process is a minefield, from compiling evidence and assembling experts to conducting negotiations and filing complex paperwork. But we will take care of everything while you focus on your recovery.

Types of Brain Injury

When it comes to damage to the brain, it is important to remember that the term’ brain injury’ covers a huge range of harm. Knowing what type of injury you have sustained is important when deciding how to approach a legal claim.

The following types are all traumatic brain injuries caused by external sources and traumas:

Concussion

  • Concussions are caused by trauma to the brain, either from a direct impact on the head or from a rapid movement that shakes the brain, such as a whiplash injury.
  • A concussion is the most common form of brain injury.
  • It can damage the blood vessels and nerves in the brain and cause bleeding or swelling.
  • Some concussions heal within a week without any symptoms developing. Others can leave a victim struggling for months or years.

Brain Contusion

  • This is a term describing a bruise on the brain.
  • Contusions are usually caused by a physical impact to the head.
  • Contusions can cause bleeding in the brain and may require surgery to facilitate recovery.

Penetrating Wound

  • Penetration refers to brain injuries caused by objects being forced into the brain.
  • This form of brain injury most commonly occurs from gunshot and stabbing wounds – a bullet or knife impacting the skull might push skin, bone, and other fragments into the brain.

Lesser Known Types of Traumatic Brain Injury

  • Coup-Contrecoup – Dual harm, with injuries occurring on both sides of the brain. This happens when one side of the brain is hit by an impact so hard that it causes the brain to move and hit the other side of the skull.
  • Diffuse Axonal – Caused by violent shaking of the head and brain. Can cause nerve and structural tears, resulting in severe brain damage.

At Bisnar Chase, we handle brain injury cases of all types. Contact us to find out if we can help you.

Symptoms of a Brain Injury

There is an extremely wide range of symptoms that you might experience if you have suffered a brain injury. They can include everything from physical side effects to mental issues.

Brain injury symptoms can include:

  • Physical
    – Weakness and a loss of balance
    – Paralysis
    – Tremors
    – Fatigue
    – Problems with speech and language
    – Impaired vision
  • Behavioral
    – Loss of impulse control
    – Aggression
    – Lethargy
  • Cognitive
    – Memory issues
    – A difficulty concentrating
    – Reduced ability to reason and process information
  • Emotional
    – Anxiety
    – Depression
    – Mood swings
    – Personality changes

These are just some of the major and life-altering impacts that a brain injury can have on a person. Some of these symptoms might be temporary, but in other cases, they could be long-lasting or even permanent.

These symptoms can turn a person’s life upside down. Many brain injury victims lose the ability to work and live independently. This is why injury clients should turn to an experienced brain injury attorney for help. Contact us now and let us seek justice for you.

How Do Brain Injuries Happen?

Brain injuries usually occur due to a powerful physical impact to the head, or rapid and violent movements which ‘shake’ the brain and cause it to hit the inside of the skull.

These are some of the most common everyday causes of brain injuries:

  • Vehicle accidents (including car crashes, motorbike accidents, truck accidents, accidents involving pedestrians, and more.)
  • Sporting injuries
  • Falls (such as a slip-and-fall accident resulting in the victim hitting their head)
  • Being struck by a person or object
  • Violent assaults
  • Drowning. Brain damage can occur when the brain is starved of oxygen. For example, if a victim is thrown underwater in a boating accident.

According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the leading causes of traumatic brain injuries vary by age group.

Across the U.S., stats show that about 2.8 million people suffer brain injuries yearly, including nearly 20,000 victims in California. The top cause of brain injuries is people falling, followed by object impacts and car accidents:

Legal Actions for Brain Injury Claims in California

There are several key factors that you must be aware of when pursuing a brain injury lawsuit in California. We hit a couple of the most important points below to help map out the process.

The Statute of Limitations for Brain Injuries in California

The statute of limitations is how long you have to file a lawsuit. For most brain injury accidents, the statute of limitations will be two years. That means that you have two years from the date of the accident to take legal action.

However, there are exceptions. For example, the statute of limitations is just six months when you are taking legal action against a government entity. Don’t leave anything to chance. Contact us at Bisnar Chase as soon as possible to ensure your case is handled by a qualified brain injury lawyer in Newport Beach.

Liable Parties

A claim or lawsuit is filed against anyone who was at fault for your accident and shares responsibility for your injuries. This can be a single person or company, or multiple parties. Someone is negligent when:

  • They owed the defendant a duty of care.
  • The defendant neglected that duty, meaning they did not do enough to keep the defendant safe.
  • Their actions or inactions resulted in the victim’s injuries.

Negligence comes in many forms. For example, it is negligent to drive a car too quickly or recklessly. It is also negligent for a property owner or manager to fail to fix a hazard. And these are just two of many different examples.

If you are unsure if your injury was caused by negligence, give us a call. We will examine the situation and determine whether you have legal recourse.

Brain Injury Compensation

What level of compensation can you expect if your brain injury lawsuit is successful? As with all personal injury claims, it will depend on your specific circumstances.

Typically, compensation will depend on some of the following factors:

  • The level of pain and suffering endured.
  • Medical bills and expenses.
  • Lost earnings – if you have been unable to work.
  • Loss of livelihood – if the brain injury is severe enough to stop you from doing your chosen job.
  • Rehab costs.
  • Impact of paralysis or loss of brain function.
  • Costs of care and equipment.
  • Loss of relationships.

In some brain injury cases that we handle, the victim has sustained such serious injuries that they are no longer able to contact an attorney themselves. We also work with families who contact us on behalf of an injured loved one, or have lost a loved one to a fatal accident. In these cases, there may be additional factors that should be compensated, such as the loss of love, care, and support (both financial and emotional).

Provide your attorney with as much information as possible to help them build a strong legal case for you.

I had an attorney for my truck accident who wanted almost 60% of what my case was worth. Worse than that, he was willing to settle for $5,000.00 with the insurance company even though I was still treating for whiplash and back pain. I contacted Bisnar Chase Personal Injury Attorneys because a friend recommended them. My case was handled exceptionally well! I was being kept notified throughout the whole process and only when I was comfortable with the settlement figure, did my attorney Gavin Long, accept it. I felt like we were working together and I felt listened to. I would refer Bisnar Chase to anyone who wants quality over quantity!

Bisnar Chase Review - Natalie

I’m so impressed with this law firm. I lost my mother because of a seat defect when she was rear-ended in an auto accident and Bisnar Chase stepped up and took our case. The staff is wonderful and Brian Chase took his time explaining everything via phone with me. I’m honored to have the best of the best working on our family’s behalf, trying to get justice for my Mom, because of a negligent car company still manufacturing faulty seats. I look forward to working with this firm and am hopeful for a positive outcome. Thank you so much, Brian Chase. I know you will work your hardest on this case. God Bless you.

Great people in this office, everyone was really helpful explaining everything. I was referred by my aunt for my car accident in October and the case went pretty fast. No problems and very professional. I was kept in the loop thru the whole process and was able to get a better settlement than my insurance company said I would. I can’t really compare them to other law firms because it was the first time I had to use an attorney, but my bad experience with the car accident was handled as well as I could have hoped.
