According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), falls, car accidents, pedestrian accidents, and assaults are the leading causes of traumatic brain injuries (TBI). For children under four, falls are the leading cause of TBI, and for teenagers 15-19 motor vehicle accidents are the leading cause of TBI.
Whether a head trauma is considered a mild or serious brain injury, the consequences can be devastating, from memory loss, personality and cognitive changes to vegetative states. In addition to having a board certified emergency room doctor on staff, we consult with neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuropsychologists, life care planners, vocational rehabilitations, and economists to understand the medical and financial consequences of brain injuries.
Child Brain Injury Lawyers
According to the National Dissemination Center for Children with Disabilities (NICHCY), more than one million children suffer brain injuries each year and more than 30,000 of these children have lifelong disabilities. We are dedicated to helping the families of a child with a brain injury get the full and complete compensation required to deal with the physical, financial, and educational issues that result from the injury.
We bring fifty years of combined legal experience to child brain injury cases. We know how to explain the legal issues involved in these cases in language our clients can understand. We want parents, and to the extent possible, children, to be involved in the important legal decisions involved in their case.
Representative Cases
