Investigators Begin Identifying Men Suspected of Assaulting Disabled Women

San Francisco Brain Injury Attorney

 

Traumatic brain injuries are debilitating injuries that can cause irreversible damage and require life-long medical care. Complete recovery from traumatic brain injury is possible, but it depends on the areas of the brain that are affected and how seriously. All brain injury cases are different and have different effects on victims. Any function of the brain can be affected when the brain is injured. Some brain injuries will cause only very minor effects, while others will completely debilitate a victim and require around-the-clock medical care. 

Brain injury lawyers at Estey & Bomberger, LLP  work with doctors and life care planners to determine a patient’s life-long medical needs. Then we pursue compensation aggressively to make sure our clients’ needs are met for the rest of their lives.  If a party is unwilling to give our client a fair settlement for their traumatic brain injury, we will quickly take their case to trial.

What is a traumatic brain injury?

A traumatic brain injury is a specific type of head injury that causes injury to the human brain. Brain injuries are a common cause of disability, and for persons in the United States under age 45, brain injuries are the leading cause of death. In any traumatic brain injury, there is a risk for secondary complications. Proper medical care within the first 60 minutes of a brain injury is essential, and can prevent serious complications or death.

Types of Traumatic Brain Injuries

One of the most common types of brain injury cases we handle are diffuse axonal brain injuries. Unlike a focal brain injury, diffuse axonal injuries cause damage over a widespread area of the brain. This type of injury commonly occurs in auto accidents, fall accidents, and physical assaults. In addition to diffuse axonal brain injuries, Our San Francisco attorneys have represented clients with the following types of brain injuries:

  • Concussions
  • Anoxic and Hypoxic Brain injuries
  • Shaken baby syndrome
  • Penetration injuries
  • Second impact syndrome or recurrent traumatic brain injury
  • Locked-in syndrome
  • Coup-Contrecoup Injury

In many cases, a brain injury will not show up on a CT scan or MRI. Neuropsychological testing can determine what areas of the brain are injured in a head injury.

Causes of Traumatic Brain Injuries

Even with a helmet or other protective gear, not all brain injuries can be prevented. Brain injuries can be caused by any traumatic accident, including:
