Shrewsbury Brain Injury Attorneys

Few injuries are as terrifying and life-altering as a brain injury. Brain injuries can change a person’s personality, disrupt their ability to move, work, or enjoy life, and, in the most serious cases, even result in death. The damage caused by brain injuries can be insidious—sometimes taking months, or even years, to become fully apparent.

Common Causes of Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)

Traumatic brain injuries can occur in a variety of incidents. Some of the most common causes include:

Understanding How Brain Injuries Occur

While our brains are encased in the hard shell of our skulls, they are soft and vulnerable. When subjected to sudden jars, blows, or forces, the brain can be slammed against the inside of the skull. This can result in a variety of injuries, including:

  • Bruising

  • Bleeding

  • Swelling

  • Over-stretching damage to nerve fibers (diffuse axonal injury)

  • Shock or pressure wave forces, as seen in explosions

  • Displaced and penetrating skull fractures

  • Severe shaking, such as in Shaken Baby Syndrome

The Consequences of a Brain Injury

The effects of a brain injury can be extensive and profoundly disabling. Even mild injuries may result in headaches, confusion, dizziness, sensitivity to noise or light, ringing in the ears, blurred vision, restlessness, and insomnia. More severe injuries can lead to:

  • Physical disabilities, loss of motor control, and paralysis

  • Seizures and convulsions

  • Persistent nausea or vomiting

  • Speech problems

  • Loss of coordination

  • Impaired judgment and trouble thinking clearly

  • Emotional and behavioral issues, such as depression and aggression

  • Personality changes

  • Death

Recovery for brain injury victims can take years, and some may never return to their “old selves.”

Facing the Challenges of a Brain Injury

Brain injuries are emotionally, physically, and financially taxing for victims and their families. Rehabilitation needs may outlive insurance coverage, and victims may be unable to work as they once did. For many, pursuing a personal injury claim is the only way to secure the resources necessary for ongoing care.

The Role of a Personal Injury Attorney

If you or a loved one has suffered a brain injury, consulting a personal injury attorney experienced in brain injury claims is essential. To prosecute a negligence claim, the attorney must demonstrate that another party’s actions or failure to act caused the accident and injury. A skilled attorney will fight to ensure you receive full and fair compensation for your needs, including:

  • Medical expenses

  • Rehabilitation

  • Lost income

  • Pain and suffering

  • Emotional damages

  • Punitive damages
