Head and Brain Injury Lawyer

Each year, over 1 million people in this country suffer from a head injury or brain injury. A head injury is when there is trauma to the head, which may or may not cause brain damage. The first type of brain injury is called a traumatic brain injury (TBI), which occurs when a head injury, such as a sudden blow or violent impact, is so severe that the brain is actually damaged. The second type of brain injury is called an anoxic brain injury, which is when prolonged oxygen deprivation causes damage to the brain. When someone suffers from a head injury or brain injury, the effects can range from being a minor irritation to a life-threatening problem. While car accidents are the most common cause of head and brain injuries, other causes include sports and work-related injuries, slip and falls, medical malpractice, and violent abuse.

A head injury or brain injury can cause major complications, such as cognitive and behavioral problems, personality changes or trouble with sensory processing. In more serious cases, these injuries can result in comas, vegetative states and death. However, sometimes the damage may not be apparent immediately, which is why it is important to seek medical attention following a brain or head injury. If you or loved one has suffered from a head injury or brain injury, please consult with an experienced attorney who will evaluate your claim. Please remember that any delays can have negative consequences with your case. At the Law Office of Thomas L. Young, let us find you a skilled lawyer who has handled brain and head injury cases, who will protect your legal rights and get you the compensation you deserve.
