Traumatic brain injuries range from concussions to severe, permanent damage. Even a 'mild' TBI can cause headaches, memory loss, mood changes, and cognitive problems that disrupt work and relationships for years.
The Spectrum of Brain Injuries
Because symptoms can be subtle or delayed, TBIs are sometimes missed in the emergency room, making prompt follow-up care essential.
Proving the Injury and Its Costs
TBI claims rely on neurological exams, imaging, neuropsychological testing, and the accounts of family and coworkers who witness the changes. Life-care planners and economists project the long-term costs of treatment, therapy, and lost earning capacity.
Since Texas does not cap damages in most injury cases, a well-documented TBI claim can pursue the full lifetime cost of the injury.
