There are different types of head injuries that can result from impact:
- Penetrating injury: strikes or impacts to the brain, which disturb and damage the layers of brain tissue and into the skull; these can be the most obvious of severe head injuries.
- Closed head injury: is the most common and involves the impact, concussions, and other injuries involving impact to the brain. Conditions associated with this type of injury include micro fissures, and subtle changes in the brain that can impact a person's executive function, cognitive abilities, even though it does not penetrate the skull or brain; These are the most common.
Injury cases are handled on a "contingency” basis, which means that you pay nothing until you are successful in making a financial recovery against the responsible party and other insurance sources.
If it appears to be capable of being established that the injury was caused by negligence of some, we will determine what the insurance coverages are and the capacity of the defendant and responsible party to pay for the damages that they have caused in terms of medical bills, lost wages, other costs, pain and suffering, loss of earning capacity, medical expenses, and other customary case costs.
