Traumatic Brain Injuries: The Long Road to Recovery

A plethora of complications from traumatic brain injuries, ranging from minor cognitive delays to debilitating and life-threatening symptoms such as seizures and coma, can follow the victim for years after the injury. You need to know that brain injury recovery time can take anywhere from a few weeks to ten years.

What is Strict Liability Law?

How Does Strict Liability Affect My Personal Injury Claim?

There are many personal injury cases that benefit from the strict liability law doctrine, also known as liability law. When the strict liability law doctrine is applicable, victims can seek out a personal injury claim without the emotionally exhausting task of establishing the responsible person(s) or company‘s proof of negligence, intention, or carelessness. Strict liability law only demands the evidence that shows harm or danger was inflicted upon the party seeking compensation, and that the accused committed it.

Even making your morning coffee becomes a multi-faceted, complex operation your brain runs each and every day. Even more fundamental than that, your brain directs your body to do numerous things that we never even think about: it makes sure that you breathe, it tells your heart to beat, and it directs your body to digest the food that you eat.

What Are the Long-Term Effects of a Brain Injury?

How Serious is a Brain Injury?

One of the most serious potential repercussions from a car accident or other traumatic incident is a brain injury. Anytime a person’s head suffers a sharp blow or a violent jolt to the head, they run the risk of developing a traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Since these injuries are internal, they are not as obvious or as easy to diagnose as an injury to the body, such as a laceration or broken bone. However, brain injuries can cause lasting damage that can take months or even years to heal–or cause permanent impairment that affects a person’s cognition, emotions, and behavior for their entire lives.

It is important to understand the long-term symptoms and effects of traumatic brain injuries, so that those who suffer from them can get proper treatment, as well as fair compensation from the party responsible for the accident. […]
